How to breed Elgrove.

The 120 easiest of 307 parent pairs for Elgrove

Every pair that produces Elgrove averages to its breed rank of 2020, and 307 pairs in the Palworld 1.0 table hit that number. Opposite genders, cake in the breeding farm, then the egg goes in an egg incubator. Some are two wild catches. The rest need a breed first.

The list stops at 120. Open the planner to filter the other 187 against the pals you already own.

Why an older Elgrove combo list won't work

Pre-1.0 guides name a recipe. The 1.0 table works on averages: a pair produces Elgrove when the two parents' breed ranks average to its 2020. 307 different pairs hit that average, which is why a page showing five or six rows is quoting a sample rather than an answer.

Ours is the game's real 44,849-pair table, shipped verbatim rather than approximated from the rank formula. The 19,044 figure still in circulation is 138 squared, the pre-1.0 roster of base forms counted as ordered pairs, so it measures something else. One pair shows the difference. Every calculator downstream of palcalc ships Panthalus and Panthalus as breeding true, and the game's own tables prove it cannot, because that pair yields Aegidron.

The shortest breeding path to Elgrove

2 breeding steps from a starter box reach Elgrove. Wispaw and Munchill make Dazemu, then Dazemu and Surfent Terra make Elgrove.

1. 1
   Wispaw + Munchill → Dazemu
2. 2
   Dazemu + Surfent Terra → Elgrove

Measured from an early-game box. Anything you already own further along cuts steps off, so load your save and it routes from there.

Elgrove passive skill odds per egg

A clean four-passive pool across both parents gives 10.0% per Elgrove egg, which is about 22 eggs for a 90% shot at all four. Every extra passive skill on either parent lowers it.

One junk passive on a parent can double the eggs you need. The per-egg column is the chance every passive skill you want lands on the egg, with random extras allowed. The roll behind these numbers is worked through in the full Palworld passive inheritance odds table, and the planner ranks the pairs in your own box by them.

Is Elgrove worth breeding, or should you catch one?

Catch one. Elgrove spawns from level 24, well short of the 2-step chain it takes to make one. The shortest chain from a starter box runs 2 steps, and the cheapest pair still needs a level 5 catch. With 307 pairs on the list, one half of one of them is probably in your box already.

Breed it anyway once you own one. A pair is how you roll passive skills; catching is how you get the species.

Elgrove work suitability and drops

Elgrove has Planting 3 and Lumbering 3 in Palworld 1.0, and drops Ancient Civilization Parts and Decayed Ancient Relic when killed or caught. Those levels and the drop rows come from our own export of the game's tables.

What Elgrove is actually for once it hatches

Planting 3 is the best it does, which is base filler out of a ceiling of 8. Check best Planting pals for anything that does it properly. It eats 8 food slots a sitting, which is a real cost once a base is full.

Elgrove active skills and partner skill

Elgrove learns 8 active skills as it levels, the last at level 70. Its partner skill is Mother Nature's Menace. That learnset is our own export of the game's level table, cooldowns and all.

• Lv 7 Grass Grass Tornado 200 12s

What Elgrove breeds into as a parent

Paired with other species, Elgrove produces 97 different children, the rarest of them Menasting and Kingpaca. A parent that wide is worth a farm slot on its own.

Other Grass-type breeding targets

Elgrove sits at breed rank 2020. The nearest Grass-type targets to it are Souffline at 2000 and Robinquill Terra at 2050, then 6 more. Breed rank is the number a pair has to average to, so a pair that overshoots Elgrove usually lands on one of these instead.

Elgrove breeding FAQ

Can you breed Elgrove in Palworld?

Yes. 307 pairs produce Elgrove in the Palworld 1.0 breeding table. Both parents have to be opposite genders, in a breeding farm, with cake in the feed box. The cheapest of those pairs is Mimog and Dumud, and the egg then needs an egg incubator to hatch.

What two Pals make Elgrove in Palworld?

Mimog and Dumud, opposite genders. Both are catchable in the wild from about level 5, which makes it the cheapest of the 307 pairs that produce Elgrove. Every other pair is listed on this page. Both parents average to its breed rank of 2020.

Can you catch Elgrove in the wild in Palworld 1.0?

Yes, at level 24-80. Its spawn points fall inside 3 named regions, the densest Bamboo Groves, where they run level 24-26. There is no alpha Elgrove, so field spawns are the only source of one. The map on this page marks 75 spawn points for it in total.

Are these Elgrove breeding combos updated for Palworld 1.0?

Yes. Every pair here comes out of the game's real 44,849-pair table, shipped verbatim rather than approximated. All 307 of Elgrove's pairs are in the list, with the easiest 120 shown. Panthalus and Panthalus is the usual tell of a stale list, and the game's tables rule it out.

Can Elgrove be bred in the early game?

The cheapest pair needs a level 5 catch, so yes, comfortably. From a starter box the chain runs 2 steps, opening with Wispaw and Munchill. Anything you already own further along shortens it, which is the part loading your own save changes.

Can Elgrove inherit all four passive skills from one egg?

Only if both parents' combined pool is exactly those four. Elgrove is born with no fixed passive, so all four slots are open, and a pair like Mimog and Dumud has to carry nothing else. A clean four-passive pool is 10% per egg, about 22 eggs for a 90% shot.
