Palworld is packed with powerful and resourceful Pals to aid you in your island adventures, but not all of the strongest Pals are reserved for late game. Some Pals are crucial for early base building, farming, travel, and combat for beginner players in Palworld. This list covers the best Pals you should be catching early in Palworld!
Best Early Base Pals in Palworld:
These Pals are key to getting your base up and running, and provide extremely useful resources when put to work in early game buildings!
Vixy
Put a few Vixy's in a Ranch building to produce Pal Spheres, Arrows and Gold Coins, all extremely useful to stock up on in the early game.
Chikipi
This Pal lays Eggs which are a key ingredient for baking Cakes! You'll be burning through Cakes like crazy as soon as you start breeding your Pals, so it's impossible to have too many Eggs. Set up your Chikipi Ranch fast!

Mozzarina
Same as Chikipi, Mozzarina is key to making Cakes for its ability to produce Milk. Catch a couple of these ASAP.
Beegarde
Beegarde is the final early game Pal you'll need to Ranch for making Cakes, as Beegarde will be producing your Honey resource! It's also a decent combat Pal in a pinch.
Incineram
Incineram has great Work Suitability skills facilitate your push into the mid game, with level 2 Handiwork and level 2 Transporting. A great addition to your base as your production starts to get more advanced!
Best Early Combat Pals in Palworld:
These Pals excel at warding off the dangers of journeying around the island, be that environmental hazards or dangerous wild Pals.
Teafant
Soothing Shower is a great early heal, healing you for 200 Health flat. This is a powerful Pal to have in dangerous biomes like deserts and glaciers that you aren't equipped for in the early game.
Foxparks
Equip the Foxparks's Harness item at tech level 6. This allows you to use Foxparks as a weapon to defeat powerful enemies in the early game. Alternatively, Foxparks is a good Kindling Pal for setting up your first forge in base.

Tombat
Tombat is not only a powerful combat Pal for the early and mid game, but its also a pretty good Pal for mining Stone in your base too.
Warsect
Warsect boasts some of the most impressive Health and Defense ratings in the early and mid game. A sturdy Pal with strong Grass and Ground type attacks.
Katress
Katress is an all-around potent fighting Pal, but is particularly valuable in the early game for its passive ability which causes defeated enemies to drop bonus resources.

Best Early Mount Pals in Palworld:
Here are the best early and mid game mounts you can get in Palworld, including ground and flying mounts!
Direhowl
Direhowl is a decently fast and stylish early game ground mount. It also has access to the double jump passive.
Eikthyrdeer
An alternative to Direhowl is Eikthyrdeer, boasting similar double jumping abilities, as well as an active skill that allows you to perform a charging attack. This charge skill, however, can also be used for a free speed boost.
Nitewing
This will be your first flying mount, being the lowest level flying mount Pal in the game. While its a pretty slow flying mount, some flight is better than none when you're only just starting out.
Vanwyrm
Vanwyrm is your natural upgrade from Nitewing. Vanwyrm is faster, and is far more powerful in combat, able to see you safely through most mid game challenges until end game flying mounts take over!
