What is the best Water Pal in Palworld?

Out of the Pals listed above, the Jormuntide is arguably the best Water Pal in Palworld. This is mostly due to the utility of being able to use it as a water mount (without depleting stamina) and the mixture of Dragon, Water and Electric attacks it can perform.

In particular, once it reaches level 22 it can perform an Aqua Burst attack with a power output of 100 which hurls a giant ball of water at enemies. It also gains access to the Hydro Laser attack at level 40. This attack can deal out 150 power, an impressive feat when most attacks of this calibre are reserved for level 50 onwards.

Additionally, the Jormuntide has the best watering level out of other Water Pals. This makes the Pal a worthy addition to your base as well as your team. You can usually find one of these impressive Pals South of Investigator's Fork, but be sure to check out our interactive map for more points of interest, collectables, Alpha locations and more.

If you're still fairly early on in your Palworld playthrough, the Teafant has a useful Partner Skill that can restore the player's HP in battle. Additionally, the Pengullet has both Water and Ice attacks and a Partner Skill that kits it out with a rocket launcher. Combine this with a Kelpsea Pal to increase the Watter attacks of all Pals in your team and you have a solid loadout.

That rounds off our guide to the best Water Pals in Palworld.
