Which pals learn Lock-On Lunge in Palworld?

Exactly one: Eye of Cthulhu, which unlocks Lock-On Lunge at level 1. No skill fruit exists for it, so that single learnset is the only place the move appears in Palworld 1.0.

Can you get Lock-On Lunge from a skill fruit?

How much damage does Lock-On Lunge do in Palworld?

Is Lock-On Lunge a good skill in Palworld?

Early only. 300 power is at the low end of Dark's range against 800 at the top of the element, so it fills a bar before the real Dark moves unlock and comes off it afterwards. The 15 second cooldown is the one thing in its favor.

Can Lock-On Lunge be inherited by breeding?

No. Lock-On Lunge does not carry to eggs in Palworld 1.0, so a hatchling never starts with it. Level a learner to 1 instead, and treat the move as something you train rather than something you breed for.

Lock-On Lunge power and cooldown

Lock-On Lunge hits for 300 on a 15 second cooldown, which is at the low end of Dark's range, where the hardest hitter lands at 800. 15 seconds between casts puts it in the middle of a rotation rather than at the start of one.

Can you teach Lock-On Lunge to any pal

No. Lock-On Lunge has no skill fruit in Palworld 1.0, which is the part most move lists leave out. Eye of Cthulhu is the only pal that will ever have it, at level 1. Every Dark skill is listed with its own fruit flag.

Can Lock-On Lunge pass to eggs

Early on. 300 power is at the low end of Dark's range, so it is what you use before the element's real moves unlock at up to 800. Keep it if the 15 second cooldown is doing the work; drop it once Eye of Cthulhu learns anything bigger.
