Understanding Palworld’s Pal Strengths and Weaknesses
In the world of Pocketpair’s monster-catching game, Palworld, knowing the strengths and weaknesses of each Pal is crucial for navigating the challenging battles that lie ahead. Just like in Pokemon, having a type advantage can make all the difference in a tough battle, so it’s important to be well versed in the type chart and how it influences battles.
Palworld Type Strengths and Weaknesses Explained
Understanding Pal type strengths and weaknesses is reminiscent of the concepts found in Pokemon, with a notable difference. Unlike Pokemon types that have multiple strengths and weaknesses, each Pal type in Palworld has only one strength and weakness. It’s essential to bear in mind that some Pals are dual type, similar to Pokemon, which is a key factor to consider when preparing for battles. However, Fire is an exception, as it is strong against Ice and Grass Pals, and only weak against one type.
Although specific numbers are not available, testing has indicated that type advantages mirror those in Pokemon. A Pal will deal double damage if it has a type advantage, and half the damage if it has a disadvantage.
