Valentail is a Neutral-type Pal introduced in Palworld's 1.0 update, and you'll find it drifting through the clouds of the new Sunreach Sky Islands. This long-eared feline is prized for its Big Stretch partner skill, which lightens your fall and boosts your air time, making it a genuinely useful travel companion for the vertical, floating terrain of the 1.0 endgame. Below you'll find exactly where it spawns, how to catch it cleanly, and what its kit brings to your team.

Where to Find Valentail

 

 

    Valentail lives high in the Sunreach Skies, where it appears around Lv. 63–64. A second population spawns in the skyisland_8_11_E_meadow region at Lv. 64–65, so if one sky island is picked clean, hop to the other. No numeric map coordinates are documented for this Pal yet, so navigate by region rather than by pin.

 

    If you want a guaranteed, stronger encounter, hunt the alpha boss "Plays Both Sides Valentail," which also spawns in the Sunreach Skies at Lv. 65–69. Alphas hit harder and soak more damage, but they give you a single reliable target instead of relying on random field spawns.

 

    As for eggs, Valentail's breeding combo isn't documented yet — its CombiRank is 1900, but no confirmed parent pairing has been listed, so catching it in the wild is currently the dependable route.

 

How to Catch Valentail

 

1. Bring a Dark-type team. Neutral Pals are weak to Dark on the standard Palworld type chart, so Dark attackers will chew through Valentail's health far faster than a neutral or off-type squad.
2. Climb to the Sunreach Skies and locate a field Valentail (Lv. 63–64) or, for a fixed target, the alpha "Plays Both Sides Valentail."
3. Weaken it into the low red zone. Whittle its HP down as far as you safely can without landing the killing blow — the lower the health, the higher your capture rate.
4. Apply a status effect if you can. Ailments like sleep or a stun window make the throw far more reliable against a mobile, floaty target.
5. Throw a high-tier sphere. At these levels, use Hyper, Ultra, or Legendary Spheres rather than basic ones.
6. Aim for a back-throw. Landing the sphere on Valentail from behind grants a catch-rate bonus — line up the angle before you commit.

 

Skills & Stats

 

 

    Valentail's standout trait is its partner skill, Big Stretch: while it's in your party, gravity's pull on your character is reduced, giving you floatier jumps and softer, slower falls. It does not stack, but on the vertical sky islands it's a real quality-of-life boost for traversal and safe landings.

 

    Its active skill list scales all the way to the top tier. Valentail learns Bog Blast (40, Lv1), Air Cannon (40, Lv7), Power Shot (80, Lv15), Power Bomb (120, Lv22), Air Blade (160, Lv30), Sand Tornado (200, Lv40), Pal Blast (450, Lv50) and, at the highest end, Holy Burst (700, Lv70). That Holy Burst payoff makes a maxed Valentail a credible offensive pick despite its unassuming looks.

 

 

    For base work, Valentail offers Gathering Lv2, handy for pulling in berries and other harvestables. At Level 80 its stats land at roughly 3,900–4,800 HP, 580–724 Attack, and 470–596 Defense, giving it a well-rounded frame that leans slightly offensive.

 

Practical tips

• Slot Valentail into your active party for the Big Stretch anti-gravity effect whenever you're exploring the sky islands — the reduced fall speed pairs perfectly with 1.0's vertical layout.
• Catch a few duplicates: with a 100% Leather drop, extra Valentails double as a renewable Leather source for crafting.
• Level toward Lv70 to unlock Holy Burst (700), its single hardest-hitting move.
• Fight it with Dark attackers and land back-throws to keep sphere costs down.
