Palworld tier list

Attack is whichever of melee and shot is higher. HP and defence count half, because damage output decides fights more than surviving one extra hit. Tier cut-offs are fixed score thresholds: S ≥ 260, A ≥ 225, B ≥ 195, C ≥ 165, everything below is D.

What this deliberately ignores: element matchups, which swing damage four-fold and matter more than any tier; partner skills; and work suitability, which is what most Pals are actually for. A high tier here means “hits hard and survives”, not “best Pal”.
