Detailed guide

How these Pals were compared

Each recommendation begins with the element stored in the current Pal data, then compares health, ranged attack, defense, Partner Skill utility, and base suitability.

The guide names one practical leader per element but keeps alternatives visible. Dual typing, passives, active skills, and the enemy matchup can change the best choice for a real team.

What to check before choosing

Avoid accidental element overlap

Dual-element Pals are efficient, but several can repeat the same secondary type. Check the whole party before assuming five different names give five different answers.

Train the counters you actually use

A perfect nine-element collection is less useful than several upgraded counters for the bosses and raids you fight regularly.
