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.

Guaranteed Passive Skills

Shadowbeak is not born with a passive locked in. Its passives come from its parents on every egg, which means the pair is the only thing you can control here.

Partner Skill

Modified DNA

Can be ridden as a flying mount. While flying, Movement Speed is increased. Enhances Dark attacks by while mounted.

Active Skills

Lv	Skill	Element	Power	Cooldown
1	Air Cannon	Neutral	40	2s
7	Dark Ball	Dark	50	2s
15	Shadow Burst	Dark	80	4s
22	Spirit Flame	Dark	200	12s
30	Nightmare Ball	Dark	300	16s
40	Divine Disaster signature	Dark	400	20s
50	Dark Laser	Dark	450	20s
55	Divine Disaster II signature	Dark	600	30s

Shadowbeak learns these as it levels up, and the 2 signature skills among them, Divine Disaster, Divine Disaster II, are the exception: a signature skill cannot be passed to another Pal, so they arrive only on a Shadowbeak.

How to get Shadowbeak

Shadowbeak cannot be hatched from two different parents. The only pairing that works is Shadowbeak with Shadowbeak. It is also caught in the wild between level 50 and 80.

Tip: Shadowbeak appears in the wild between level 50 and 80, which is usually faster than breeding if you just need one.
