Best early-game Pals in Palworld

The strongest Pals you can catch before the map turns dangerous — every Pal whose wild spawns top out at level 15, ranked on the combat formula. 20 qualify.

How this list is put together
"Early game" is defined by the spawn tables: a Pal qualifies if the highest level any field spawner places it at is 15 or under. The level cap is stated in the files; the cut-off is ours.

Scored as attack + (HP ÷ 2) + (defence ÷ 2), the same formula as the overall tier list, so a B here means the same thing it does there.
