Palworld 1.0 is shaping up to be one of the game’s biggest updates yet, especially because of how many new Pals have already been teased. Some have been shown properly in the trailer, others have appeared through short previews or concept art, and a few still do not have confirmed names. That means some details, like exact types, partner skills, and work suitability, are still unknown.
This guide focuses on every teased new Pal players are currently talking about, including what they may do in-game, what their design suggests, and how they could affect combat, exploration, base building, and Palworld multiplayer. For now, the type guesses are based on trailer footage, visual themes, community discussion, and how existing Palworld elements work.
Why These New Pals Matter For Gameplay
The new Pals in Palworld 1.0 are not just extra creatures to fill the Paldeck. Several of them already look like they could introduce new ways to fight, travel, explore, or build a team.
For players returning to the game on the Palword 0.1 release date, this is what makes the roster exciting. New Pals give players a reason to explore fresh areas, test new team combinations, trade rare catches, and rethink how they approach both solo worlds and Palworld servers.
Solenne
Solenne is one of the most mysterious new Pals teased for Palworld 1.0. Its pre-release codename, MonochromeQueen, fits the design well, with its black-and-white colour scheme, pale hair, red eyes, and elegant petal-like shapes. Rather than looking like an animal-based Pal, Solenne feels more like a floating dancer, fairy, or magical support creature, which could make it one of the more unique rare combat Pals in the 1.0 roster.
Type: Dark, Neutral.
Work Suitability: 2 Handiwork, 1 Gathering, 1 Transporting
Venusa
Venusa has a much darker and more threatening design, with red eyes, a snake-like body, and multiple snake heads extending from her hair. Her pre-release codename, SnakeGirl, makes the Medusa-inspired direction feel even clearer. She looks like the kind of Pal that could appear in caves, ruins, or a dangerous late-game area rather than a peaceful early-game zone.
Type: Dark
Work Suitability: 4 Handiwork, 2 Gathering, 3 Medicine Production, 2 Transporting
Dupin
Dupin is a Fire-type Pal with the pre-release codename ClownRabbit, matching its playful trickster look and jester-like style. Its Kindling, Handiwork, Medicine Production, and Transporting suitabilities make it more than just a mischievous combat Pal, giving it useful base roles for crafting, production, and support work.
Type: Fire
Work suitability: Kindling 2, Handiwork 3, Medicine Production 3, Transporting 1
Tropicaw
Tropicaw is a bright tropical Pal with an energetic, wild look that feels suited to forests, jungles, cliffs, or warm island areas. Its pre-release codename, RedFlowerBird, matches its flower-like theme and bird-inspired movement, making it feel like a Pal that could focus on fast attacks, mobility, or nature-based abilities.
Type: Grass
Work Suitability: 1 Planting, 1 Gathering
Sekhmet
Sekhmet has a strong Egyptian-inspired design, with a dark blue body, gold markings, sharp cat-like ears, red eyes, and a confident warrior-like stance. Because of its ancient guardian look and possible similarities to Anubis, it feels like it could be a strong combat Pal with a Ground-type connection.
Type: Ground
Work suitability: 1 Handiness, 1 Mining, 1 Transporting
Dualith
Dualith looks like one of the strongest base-focused Pals teased for Palworld 1.0. Its pre-release codename, GrassGolem, points toward a nature-powered construct rather than a purely mechanical creature, and its work suitability makes it sound extremely useful for production-heavy bases. With strong Mining, Planting, Gathering, Lumbering, and Transporting, Dualith could become a valuable all-round worker for players who want one Pal that can handle several important jobs around a base.
Type: Ground, Grass
Work suitability: Planting 3, Gathering 3, Lumbering 2, Mining 4, Transporting 2
Ghost Black Cat
Whilst the name so far is just code-name, Ghost Black Cat looks like a strong Dark-type utility Pal for Palworld 1.0, with high Handiwork and Transporting making it useful for crafting, moving items, and keeping larger bases running efficiently. Its spooky cat theme may also give it some combat value, but its work suitability makes it stand out most as a base worker.
Type: Dark
Work suitability: Handiwork 4, Lumbering 2, Medicine Production 1, Transporting 4
Puffolt
Puffolt is one of the smaller new Pals teased for Palworld 1.0, and its pre-release codename, ElecPomeranian, makes its grumpy Pomeranian inspiration clear. The trailer shows it using electric powers, and the developer info lists it as an Electric-type Pal, so Puffolt looks set to bring fast shock-based attacks to the 1.0 roster. Depending on how early players can find it, Puffolt could become a useful small Electric companion for combat, base utility, or early multiplayer progression.
Type: Electric.
Work Suitability: 3 Generating Electricity, 2 Transporting
Fox Exorcist Pal
This unnamed Fire-type Pal, currently known by the pre-release codename FoxExorcist, looks like a combat-focused addition for Palworld 1.0. Its trailer appearance shows that it is quite a bigger sized pal with martial-arts-style movement and fire abilities, making it feel suited for aggressive close-range attacks, fast combos, and burst damage. With strong Kindling and Handiwork, it could also be useful around a base instead of being only a battle Pal.
Type: Fire
Work suitability: Kindling 3, Handiwork 3, Transporting 2
Hoodle
Hoodle is an officially named new Pal for Palworld 1.0, with the pre-release codename HoodGhost. As a Dark-type Pal with Handiwork and Transporting, it looks like a small early-game support Pal that could help with basic crafting and moving items around the base, while still fitting the spooky ghost-like style of the 1.0 roster.
Type: Dark
Work suitability: Handiwork 1, Transporting 1
Sky Dragon
This flying dragon Pal, currently known by the pre-release codename BlueSkyDragon, looks like one of the more powerful new creatures teased for Palworld 1.0. The trailer shows it using a water-type attack, and its confirmed typing is Dragon and Water, which could make it a high-tier combat or travel-focused Pal with strong mobility and elemental pressure. With Watering and Gathering, it may also offer some light base utility, but its main appeal looks to be exploration and battle.
Type: Dragon, Water
Work suitability: Watering 1, Gathering 1
Fire Dragon
This Fire and Ground-type Pal, currently known by the pre-release codename VolcanoDragon, looks like a heavy late-game combat Pal from the Palworld 1.0 trailer. Its design closely resembles Astegon, but the volcanic theme, armored look, and fire-based presence make it feel more focused on explosive damage, durability, and mining utility. With both Kindling and Mining at level 3, it could be useful for bases that need strong ore production and fire-based crafting support.
Type: Fire, Ground
Work suitability: Kindling 3, Mining 3
Panda Pal
The Panda Pal does not have a confirmed final name yet, but its pre-release codename, Panda Girl, gives it a clear identity for now. The trailer shows it using fast martial-arts-style moves, making it feel like a close-range Grass-type fighter rather than just a cute companion. Its work suitability is low across several roles, but Planting, Handiwork, Gathering, Medicine Production, and Transporting still give it some flexible early-base utility.
Type: Grass
Work suitability: Planting 1, Handiwork 1, Gathering 1, Medicine Production 1, Transporting 1
Swordfish Pal
The Swordfish Pal, currently known by the pre-release codename SwordCutlassfish, is one of the more creative new Palworld 1.0 reveals because it turns a literal pun into gameplay. In the trailer, it can be used like a cutlass by pulling out its spine as a sword, making it stand out as a Water-type Pal with a very direct combat-focused partner skill. Its Lumbering 3 also gives it surprising base utility, especially for players who want a Pal that is useful outside of battle too.
Type: Water
Work suitability: Watering 2, Gathering 2, Lumbering 3
Bakemi
Bakemi is a Dark-type Pal teased for Palworld 1.0, currently known by the pre-release codename OniGhostGirl. Its ghost-like theme fits well with Palworld’s Dark element, and its work suitability points more toward base support than pure combat. With Medicine Production 3, Handiwork 2, and Transporting 2, Bakemi could be useful for crafting, medical production, and keeping resources moving around the base.
Type: Dark
Work suitability: Handiwork 2, Medicine Production 3, Transporting 2
Snock
Snock is one of the newly confirmed Pal names for Palworld 1.0, and its pre-release codename, ElecSnail, points to an electric snail-inspired design. The official comic-style reveal mentions a “shock spa,” which makes Snock sound like it could have a strange utility role connected to electric bathing, healing, relaxation, or base support rather than only being a standard combat Pal. If that idea carries into gameplay, Snock could use Electric-based attacks, shock effects, or electricity-related base utility.
Type: Electric.
Work suitability: 2 Generating Electricity
Solmora
Solmora is another confirmed new Pal name for Palworld 1.0, and its pre-release codename, KingSunfish, fits its role as a large water-focused Pal. The reveal describes its "corkscrew tail" as acting like a propeller, allowing it to "reach speeds beyond 88 mph". Since it is also shown being ridden across the water, Solmora sounds like it could become a strong traversal Pal for crossing oceans, reaching distant areas, and exploring water-heavy parts of the map quickly.
Type: Water
Work suitability: Watering 2
Clione Twins
The Clione Twins Pal does not have a confirmed final name yet and is currently only a code name. It is shown through concept art rather than a full in-game scene, so its final model may still change before Palworld 1.0 releases. With its paired design and sea angel inspiration, it feels like a small support-style Pal that could help with light base utility rather than being a major combat or boss-focused creature.
Type: Water
Work suitability: Watering 1, Handiwork 1, Transporting 1
Lotus Dragon
The Lotus Dragon currently only appears through official concept art rather than a revealed in-game scene, and its name is only a code name. With Grass and Ground typing, plus Watering, Planting, and Medicine Production, it looks more like a small nature-support Pal than a major boss encounter. Its lotus theme and water garden setting could make it useful for early base farming, medicine production, or peaceful wetland-style areas.
Type: Grass, Ground
Work suitability: Watering 1, Planting 1, Medicine Production 1
Fluffy Bird Pal
The Fluffy Bird Pal is still only shown through concept art, so its final name and in-game model may still change before Palworld 1.0 releases. Its pre-release codename, FluffyBird, fits its soft companion-style look, and while the snowy colours originally made it seem like an Ice Pal, the confirmed info lists it as a Neutral-type Pal with a small base role rather than a cold-focused utility Pal.
Type: Neutral
Work suitability: Handiwork 1
World Tree Guardian
The World Tree Guardian looks like one of the biggest threats teased for Palworld 1.0, appearing as a mysterious boss tied directly to the World Tree rather than a normal Pal encounter. It could serve as a major late-game Legendary Pal or Raid Boss fight, making it more of an endgame objective than a collectible Pal. Because it is only teased from a distance, its full role is still unclear, but it already feels important to the update’s overall progression and mystery.
Expected Type: Dragon
Work suitability: Unknown
Whale Pal
The Whale Pal is one of the biggest mysteries connected to Palworld 1.0 and the World Tree. Some players think it may not be a normal catchable Pal at all, but instead a special transport method, story creature, or cinematic way to reach the World Tree area. If it does become a captureable Pal, it would likely be a rare late-game Legendary or Aplha creature.
Expected type if catchable: Water.
Other Unnamed Small Pals
A few other small Pals also appear briefly in Palworld 1.0 footage, but the images are not clear enough to say everything with confidence yet. One of them appears to be Samurai Dog, a small dog-like Pal briefly seen holding what looks like a sword. If that is correct, it may have a light combat role built around quick melee attacks, while its Mining and Transporting suitability could also make it useful for basic resource work around early or mid-game bases.
Possible codename: Samurai Dog
Type: Neutral
Work suitability: Mining 2, Transporting 1
The other unclear Pal may be Candle Witch, a small humanoid-looking creature shown with glowing effects and what appears to be a scepter. Its design could point toward a magic or spellcaster-style Pal, while the confirmed Fire and Ground typing suggests it may use flame-based attacks with some earth-themed utility.
Possible codename: Candle Witch
Type: Fire, Ground
Work suitability: Kindling 1, Handiwork 1, Medicine Production 1
What These New Pals Could Change After Release
Even with many details still unconfirmed, the teased Palworld 1.0 Pals already show how much variety the update could bring. Some look like cute companions, others look like strong combat picks, and a few seem designed around very specific gameplay ideas, such as web control, melee weapons, electric attacks, or late-game boss encounters.
Once Palworld 1.0 update releases, the most important details will be their official types, partner skills, spawn locations, work suitability, and how useful they are in real gameplay. Until then, these previews are a strong sign that 1.0 could give both new and returning players a fresh reason to explore, build, battle, and start new adventures.
