If you can’t spin any of these combinations, use the linked guides on each Pals name to help you out. The egg Jormuntide will hatch from is a Huge Dark Egg, which will take approximately two hours to incubate. Fortunately, it is possible to speed up the incubation process if you want to get your Jormuntide out and growing quickly.

Author’s Note

It took me the better side of forever to get a firm grip on how breeding works in Palworld. At no point was I more confused than when I bred a Katress with a Wixen and hatched a Caprity. After the same combination yielded the same result two more times, it all clicked.

If both parents are the same Pal, you will get an egg that hatches a third of that kind. A Direhowl paired with a Direhowl always gives a Direhowl.

When you pair two different Pals, such as a Katress and a Wixen, the resulting Pal makes absolutely no sense—but it is consistent. This means once you find a winning Palworld combination, note it down; you can always rely on it.
