About these tools
Palworld breeding runs on a hidden per-Pal number called breeding power (CombiRank). Two parents averaged together always produce the same child, which makes every combination calculable rather than a matter of luck.
This hub covers three things: the breeding calculator, the full 187-Pal power ladder, and the 79 fixed combinations that override the formula. All of it is built from the official wiki table, re-fetched and re-checked by us rather than copied from a third-party calculator — the third-party tables disagree with each other on several values, and those errors propagate.
What the calculator does: enter two Pals and see the offspring with the arithmetic shown, or pick a target Pal and get every parent pair that produces it, sorted by how tight the power match is. It also flags the 66 Pals that cannot be produced by breeding at all.
Everything runs in your browser. No account, no upload, and the data set is small enough that the page works offline once loaded.
What this hub is for
Palworld has one mechanic that generates more search traffic than anything else: breeding. Two Pals plus a Cake produce a predictable offspring, and because the result is decided by a single hidden number per Pal, the whole system can be calculated rather than guessed. That is what we build here — the tools first, the reading second.
Every number on this page and on the breeding calculator comes from the official wiki's breeding table, which lists 187 Pals with their breeding power and 79 fixed combinations that override the formula. We re-fetched and re-checked that data on 2026-09-23 rather than copying a third-party table — the third-party tables disagree with each other in several places, which is exactly why we do it this way.

How breeding works in one paragraph
Every Pal carries a hidden number called breeding power (the game files call it CombiRank). Put two Pals in a Breeding Farm with a Cake and the game averages their power: floor((A + B + 1) / 2). The offspring is whichever Pal has a breeding power closest to that average. Lower power means a rarer Pal — Bellanoir sits at 1 at the bottom, Chikipi at the top of the common end. A small set of 79 named pairs ignores the maths completely and always produces a specific variant.
Two consequences matter more than the formula itself. First, the same two parents always give the same child — there is no randomness in the species, only in which passive skills come through. Second, you cannot breed your way into every Pal: 66 of the 187 cannot appear as a breeding result at all, and only exist in the wild or as bosses.
Start with the calculator
If you already know what you are trying to produce, the fastest path is the reverse lookup on the breeding calculator: choose the Pal you want and it lists every parent pair that reaches it, fixed combos first. If you are working the other way round — you have two Pals and want to know what they make — enter them and the page shows the arithmetic, including the case where no Pal sits exactly on the target and the child lands on the nearest value instead.
Sources and standards
Where these figures come from
Breeding powers, the fixed combination list and the excluded-Pal list are taken from the official Palworld wiki's breeding table, re-fetched on 2026-09-23 rather than copied from a third-party calculator. Third-party tables disagree with each other on several values, which is why we go to the source.

FAQ
How does breeding work in Palworld?
Each Pal has a hidden breeding power. Two parents placed in a Breeding Farm with a Cake produce the Pal whose power is closest to the average of theirs. A set of fixed combos overrides that rule.
What is the breeding formula?
child power = floor((parentA.power + parentB.power + 1) / 2), then take the eligible Pal nearest that value.
Where is the breeding calculator?
On our Palworld breeding calculator page — it takes two parents and returns the offspring, and also does reverse lookup from a target Pal.
Can every Pal be bred?
No. 66 of the 187 Pals cannot appear as a breeding result and must be caught or defeated instead.
How many Pals are in the game?
The official breeding table lists 187 Pals with breeding-power values, which is the set this site works from.
What do I need to start breeding?
A Breeding Farm (technology level 19), one male and one female Pal, and a Cake per attempt — 5 Flour, 8 Red Berries, 7 Milk, 8 Eggs, 2 Honey.
Do passive skills pass down?
Yes, and randomly — each parent contributes from its own pool, which is why building a four-passive Pal takes several generations of selective breeding.
Is this page official?
No. It is an independent tool. Data comes from the official wiki and is re-checked by us; we are not affiliated with Pocketpair.
