Other than the obsessive need to collect every variant possible, Lucky Pals do also provide an additional buff, making them a worthy pursuit. If you'd like to find out more about Lucky Pals and how to catch them in Palworld, see our full explainer below.

How to find Lucky Pals in Palworld

As mentioned, Lucky Pals are bigger, sparkly versions of their namesakes. This means there is a 'Lucky' version of almost every Pal species just waiting to be caught. Unfortunately, these Pals spawn randomly, so it's impossible to preemptively know where they will be.

There are, however, a few key signs to look out for when adventuring and perusing Lucky Pals. The most obvious sign that you're near as Lucky Pal is the wind chime noise they emit. Make sure you have your sound on to catch this. It sounds like a loud twinkling noise.

Secondly, they will have white sparkles surrounding them, as indicated by the image below. This was a Lucky Celaray we caught along the coast near the Fort Ruins waypoint.

If there's a specific Lucky you're after, it's worth travelling to locations where the normal versions of their species are known to spawn. You can check out our Palworld pal locations guide for more details on every Pal's spawn point.

These Pals tend to be harder to catch, so make sure you have a good selection of spheres in your inventory.

Lucky Pal buffs

Other than being a boast-worthy addition to your Palbox, Lucky Pals also receive a Passive 'Lucky' Skill that adds 15% to attack and 15% to work speed. You can also get Ancient Civilisation Parts as a drop when you capture or defeat a Lucky Pal. This is especially useful for crafting higher-quality tools like the Mega Shield.
