1. The breeding combination table was completely revised

Pocketpair’s release notes state the combination table was reworked to better match game progression. In practice: many pre-1.0 parent → child results no longer hold, so spreadsheets and calculators built before July 10 will quietly give wrong answers. Our dataset tracks this explicitly — 299 Pals are currently verified against 1.0, and everything else is labeled pre-1.0 or unconfirmed until it’s re-checked. See the full table.

2. Mutations: a new breeding layer

Every bred egg now has a chance to be a mutated egg, hatching a Pal with higher stats and access to exclusive passive skills. This is the biggest new optimization lever for breeders — plan your egg budget with the mutation calculator.

3. 73 new Pals join the pool

1.0 added dozens of new Pals across the existing map and the new sky region. New Pals mean new combination targets — and new shortest paths to old targets, since the revised table reshuffles breeding ranks. Per-Pal guides: Pupperai · Clovee · Tanzee Ignis · Woolipop Terra · Amione · Gloopie Primo · Wispaw · Univolt Cryst · Muffly · Puffolt · Polapup Terra · Elgrove · …

4. Partner and passive skills reworked

Partner skills were majorly reworked and new actives/passives entered the pool, which changes what’s worth breeding for. The passive inheritance calculator reflects the 1.0 numbers as they are confirmed.

Our verification method

Data comes from datamined 1.0 game files where available, cross-checked against in-game breeding results reported by the community. Each Pal and combo carries a status badge; when a pre-1.0 value is confirmed or corrected for 1.0, the badge flips to ✓ 1.0 verified and the dataset date on every page updates. Details in the FAQ.
