Don't be fooled by this Pal's fluffy appearance. A hypersonic kick from one of its long legs may send you flying to the other side of the world.

Melpaca has an even base stat spread in Palworld: 90 HP, 90 attack and 90 defense all sit close to the middle of the Paldex, with no stat far enough from average to build around. Its damage is melee-weighted — 90 melee attack against 75 ranged — so Melpaca does its best work up close and loses value the further away the fight happens. No base stat on Melpaca clears the Paldex median; Work Speed at 100 is the closest it comes, which puts the whole case for catching it on its work suitability and its breeding combinations.
Elementally, Melpaca is Neutral, which carries no offensive advantage of its own while still taking extra damage from Dark attacks — its matchups come down to raw stats and move choice. It is cheap to keep. A food value of 2 is one of the lowest in the Paldex, so Melpaca works a full shift without draining the feed box the way a large Pal does.
Melpaca Work Suitability
- FarmingLv 2#7 of 29
Melpaca is a specialist: Farming is the only work suitability it has, at level 2, so it goes into a base for exactly one station and nothing else. That ranks Melpaca #7 of the 29 Pals that can do Farming — comfortably worth a slot even once your Paldex fills out.
Farming is a scarce suitability: only 29 Pals in the entire Paldex have it at all, so Melpaca holding it at level 2 is reason enough to keep one around. Melpaca can also be placed on a Ranch, where Farming Pals produce their item on a timer with no input from you — the cheapest passive income a base has. Every one of those levels sits at 2 or below, so Melpaca pays for itself in the field, as a mount or a combat partner, rather than at a base station.

Where to Find Melpaca
Melpaca is found on the Palpagos Islands map, where the game data places 318 separate spawn points for it. Every one of them sits in the Grasslands, so that is the only biome worth searching for a wild Melpaca. The thickest band runs through the centre of the map around X -412k, Y 89k, with looser pockets elsewhere.
Wild Melpaca spawn between level 5 and level 17, so the ones you meet late in a run hit noticeably harder than the first you catch. Beyond open-world spawns, Melpaca also turns up in dungeon boss rooms and Alpha arenas.
