What is the best Dragon Pal in Palworld?

Out of the Pals listed above, the Jetragon is often regarded as the best Dragon Pal in Palworld. This is mostly because you can ride them as a flying mount and whilst doing so, fire missiles from above onto enemies.

The Jetragon has Fire, Dark and Dragon-type attacks, making it strong against a variety of elements. Its most powerful attack, the Dragon Meteor literally launches multiple meteorites down on enemies whilst in mid-flight.

As of writing, the Jetragon is only available in the far southwestern volcanic region of the map. This means it will be a later-game addition to your Pal team. For this reason, we also recommend the Elphidran or Quivern as other powerful Dragon-type alternatives with strong attacks and flying capabilities.

If you're still fairly early on in your Palworld playthrough, consider recruiting a Relaxaurus as a reliable Dragon Pal team member. These adorable Pals can be ridden as a mount and can fire a missile launcher as part of their Partner Skill, once unlocked. Additionally, they have both Water and Dragon attacks, with the capability to execute the same Dragon Meteor power as the Jetragon once they reach level 50.

That rounds off our guide to the best Dragon Pals in Palworld. For more tips and tricks, see our list of the best Pals in Palworld which includes the best flying mounts, regular mounts, best Pals for combat and more, across all elements. Alternatively, see our full Pal list which includes more information on every single Pal in the current Paldeck.
