Shadowbeak stats

Two Shadowbeak are the only pairing

No two different Pals hatch Shadowbeak in Palworld 1.0. It sits outside the rank-average pool and has no fixed special combination. Two Shadowbeak in a Breeding Farm, one male and one female, always produce another one, so the route exists; it just starts with catching both parents. This page lists every pairing that works, which is that single one.

Shadowbeak spawns in the world between level 50 and 80.

Shadowbeak breeding steps

  1. 1. Build a Breeding Farm

    Build the farm and stock Cake, because nothing hatches without it. With 1 parent pair listed here, the cheapest route is usually one of the pairs you already own.

  2. 2. Assign the two parents

    Drop one male and one female Shadowbeak into the farm; identical parents always breed true.

  3. 3. Collect and incubate the egg

    Collect the egg and incubate it: a Huge Dark Egg is what Shadowbeak arrives in. Nothing about the Huge Dark Egg needs tuning, so leave it running and go set up the next pair for Shadowbeak.

  4. 4. Repeat for passives

    Keep the pair in the farm and the passives reroll from egg to egg; Shadowbeak keeps hatching, only the passives and the stat growth change.

Shadowbeak breeding FAQ

Can you breed Shadowbeak in Palworld?
Yes, but only from two of its own species: Shadowbeak sits outside the rank-average pool and has no special combination, so the only pairing that hatches it is Shadowbeak with Shadowbeak, one male and one female. Shadowbeak spawns in the world between level 50 and 80.
Which breeding power does Shadowbeak use?
Shadowbeak sits at breeding rank 550, in the lower third of the 20–3,100 range. The game averages the two parents' hidden ranks as floor((rank A + rank B + 1) / 2) and hatches the breedable Pal nearest that number, which is how the pairs listed below reach Shadowbeak.
What is Shadowbeak good at around the base?
Its strongest job is gathering at level 2, and it is a high-rarity Pal at Paldeck #189.
Can cakes improve Shadowbeak eggs?
No, and 550 is the number that matters here rather than the recipe: the pair you choose decides the child before the egg exists, and no ordinary Cake turns Shadowbeak into something else. The advanced ones change what comes with the hatch for Shadowbeak: egg count, stat growth, passive inheritance, and two of them improve the mutation roll.
