Palworld would be incomplete without Pals – the adorable and captivating creatures roaming around the game world. Players can befriend, train, and capture over 100 different types of these cute critters as they progress through the game. All Pals have their own distinct personalities, skills, and appearances.

Players can take along their Pals on adventures or assign them different jobs, like mining, crafting, or farming. However, some wild Pals are aggressive and are ready to attack players when approached. This guide breaks down how players can catch Pals easily, and includes tips and tricks to increase their chances of capturing one.

How To Catch Pals in Palworld

how to craft a pal sphere in palworld

In Palworld, catching Pals is quite similar to how players catch Pokemon. Instead of Pokeballs, players will need a special item called a Pal Sphere to catch Pals.

Before they can start crafting Pal Spheres, players need to reach level two and gather the necessary crafting materials:

  • 1 Paldium Fragment
  • 3 Wood
  • 3 Stone

Players can also find and collect Pal Spheres lying on the ground throughout the map.

Once they’ve crafted a Pal Sphere, players need to simply throw it at a Pal by pressing the Q button on their keyboard. Holding down the Q key also gives players information about how likely they are to catch the Pal if they throw a sphere.

If players successfully capture a Pal, they are added to their party or sent back to the Palbox in their base if the party is full. On the other hand, if they throw a Pal Sphere and fail to catch the Pal, the sphere is destroyed and players will have to try again.

How To Increase The Chances Of Catching A Pal

As players level up, it gets easier for them to catch high-level Pals. They can also follow the tips and tricks mentioned below to increase their percentage chance of successfully capturing a Pal.

Lower the Wild Pal’s Health

The best way to increase the chances of capturing a Pal is to weaken it before throwing a Pal Sphere at it. Players can use their weapons, like arrows and pickaxes, to hit them just enough to lower their health. However, players should be careful that they don’t kill the creature, as it’s not possible to catch Pals that are dead or unconscious.

Use Better Pal Spheres

The basic model of Pal Spheres is only effective when catching low-level Pals. As such, players should bring along better spheres, like the Mega Sphere, to increase their chances of success. These may be harder to get early on but are worth waiting for.

Hit Them From The Back

There is a small bonus to the percentage chance of catching a Pal when players throw a Pal Sphere from behind the Pal they want to catch.
