Palworld’s icy biomes are home to some of the game's most versatile and powerful Pals, who excel in various tasks crucial for survival and progression besides freezing opponents on their tracks. From low-level penguins to legendary creatures, Ice Pals remain invaluable for your whole journey through Palpagos Island.

Palworld: Every Pal Type, Ranked

Grass, Electric, Water... there are many types of Pals. But which are the best? Let's rank all the elements from worst to best.

Nevertheless, it can be hard to delve into the most frigid corners of the game, searching for the perfect glacial partner to add to your team. So, here’s a detailed look at the 10 best Ice Pals and how their unique abilities can change the way you approach Palworld’s challenges.

Updated on March 7, 2025, by Mohamed El Ouardighi: With the Feybreak update, Palworld received a major content update that includes the addition of multiple pals. This is why we had to go over our lists and update them.

12 Pengullet

In the early game, Pengullet is an adaptable Ice Pal with a remarkable set of skills suited for both combat and utility. For example, the Pengullet Cannon Partner Skill transforms this Pal into an effective rocket launcher, capable of blowing up your adversaries with ease and also knocking out the Pal because, well, you are using this poor penguin as ammunition.

Beyond its combat utility, Pengullet's proficiency in Cooling, Handiwork, Transporting, and Watering makes it a valuable Pal for various base tasks. Also, since this is most likely the first Ice Pal you’ll come across, Pengullet can introduce you to essential base equipment such as the Fridge.

11 Mau Cryst

The Mau Cryst, a fusion of Dark and Ice elements, is useful for its exceptional agility in combat, but its Partner Skill Gold Digger is what truly makes it stand out, as it can occasionally unearth valuable Gold Coins when it's assigned to the ranch. Since money is short in your first few hours of gameplay, Mau Cryst's ability to find lost coins can give you the boost you need to buy some essential resources.

Due to its Cooling Trait, Mau Cryst can also operate key equipment like the Fridge. However, the best use for this creature is getting you richer while you explore new corners of the map.

Mau Cryst can only be captured on the frozen land in the northmost corner of the Palworld archipelago. However, you can get it earlier in the game by buying a regular Mau from the Black Marketer and breeding it with a Pengullet.

10 Foxcicle

Foxcicle’s Aurora Guide amplifies the attack power of Ice Pals, enhancing the team's overall combat effectiveness, particularly when it's time to hunt Palworld’s mightiest dragons. Furthermore, since you should have Ice Pals by your side when exploring Palworld’s desert, Foxcicle’s Partner Skill can ensure you remain competitive even when focused on survival.

Embark on a verdant adventure with these captivating creatures.

Unfortunately, Foxcicle has a single Trait, Level 2 Cooling, making it less versatile for base maintenance. Yet, its well-balanced status and support abilities in combat still cement Foxcicle as one of the best Ice Pals.

9 Loupmoon Cryst

Loupmoon Cryst is one of the newest pals introduced with the Feybreak Island update, and it's a solid addition to any base. With level three Cooling and level two Handiwork, it can handle tasks efficiently while keeping your base cool. But that's not all - if you bring it into battle, it proves to be a strong ally. Its partner skill lets you unleash a powerful Snow Claw attack on targeted enemies, making it a great choice for combat.

If you're looking to catch Loupmoon Cryst, head to Feybreak Island and make your way toward the southern blue area. You'll find this pal roaming around, ready to be captured.

8 Chillet

Chillet's rare combination of Ice and dragon elements already makes it a flexible combatant worth having on your team. Yet, its utility is augmented by its Wriggling Weasel Partner Skill, which adds Dragon damage to your attacks, quite the useful combination that makes Chillet a great choice for hunting down Dark-type Pals while keeping the advantages of an Ice Pal.

In addition to Cooling, Chillet also has the Gathering Trait. However, since these two Traits are Level 1, it’s best to keep this Ice Pal on the front lines instead of your base.

7 Wumpo

Wumpo distinguishes itself with the Guardian of the Snowy Mountain Partner Skill, which allows it to carry supplies at the same time that it expands your inventory. That means having a Wumpo by your side allows you to gather resources more efficiently without worrying about capacity limitations.

Wumpo also has high levels of Cooling, Handiwork, Lumbering, and Transporting, making it a great choice for completing Base Tasks. With a few Wumpos in your base, it’s possible to greatly increase the efficiency of your camp, a decisive factor when it comes to surviving Palworld’s dangers.

6 Penking

The Brave Sailor Partner Skill of Penking makes it particularly effective for hunting Fire element Pals, increasing the drop rate for loot from these enemies, which is vital for farming rare materials. However, that’s not the only thing Penking can do on the battlefield, as a collection of strong Water and Ice Active Skills also turns it into a mighty warrior.

Palworld: 12 Best Water Pals

There's a good number of Water Pals that will help you with traversing, related tasks, and in battle. Let's check which ones in this list.

In addition to its combat prowess, Penking's proficiency in Watering, Cooling, Mining, Transporting, and Handiwork tasks at the base complements its battlefield capabilities. The fact that Penking is available in the early game only makes it more valuable, as catching it can highly boost your camp efficiency.

5 Sibelyx

Sibelyx's Silk Maker Partner Skill makes it great both as a combat Ice Pal and a camp worker. While exploring the lands of Palworld, this ability unleashes a powerful blizzard toward a targeted enemy, but when assigned to a Ranch, though, it also allows it to occasionally produce High Quality Cloth.

Sibelyx's suitability in Cooling, Farming, and Medicine Production Traits further increases its value, making it a multi-functional Pal in various gameplay scenarios, if you're appropriately equipped to capture this Pal in the cold regions.

4 Sweepa

Sweepa’s King of Fluff Partner Skill is a unique ability that surpasses expected boosts because it increases the entire team’s stats based on how many Swee you have on your team. It’s the kind of ability that adds a surprising strategic choice to the game, one that can help spicy things up and increase the fun factor.

Sweepa can also be ridden, making it useful for traversing Palworld’s map. Finally, it has decent levels of Gathering and Cooling, giving it enough value outside the battlefield to keep it on your base.

Sweepa is also available as an Alpha Boss if you want to catch a stronger version of it.

3 Cryolinx

Cryolinx is a beast with powerful Ice Active Skills capable of striking down the mightiest Dragon Pals. This Pal’s impressive fighting prowess is made even more useful due to its Dragon Hunter Partner Skill, which increases the drop rate for items from defeated Dragons.

Adding Cryolinx to your team makes it a breeze to cross regions infested by Dragon Pals. Simultaneously, its ability turns slaying Dragons into a profitable activity, helping you to acquire rare materials, so you can't go wrong with trusting Cryolinx as your to-go Ice warrior.
