It was once believed that as the world approached its end, the flame would weaken. Doomsayers would repeatedly rejoice when the flame began to weaken, but in the end, it turned out to be a prank by Sootseer. At least, for now.

Sootseer lands in the upper half of the Paldex with 105 base HP, 125 attack and 90 defense — no single number carries it, but nothing on the stat sheet is a liability either. Its damage is ranged-weighted — 125 ranged attack against 100 melee — so Sootseer hits hardest when it can keep its distance and let its own moves do the work. Its defining number is Ranged Attack at 125: that is the top 9% of the entire Paldex, and it is the reason to build around Sootseer at all.
Sootseer carries both Dark and Fire, which widens the matchup in both directions: it is hit harder by Dragon and Water damage, and hits harder against Neutral, Ice and Grass in return. Upkeep is the catch: a food value of 7 is among the highest in the Paldex, so a base staffed with Sootseer empties the feed box quickly — budget the berry plantations before you assign it.
Sootseer Work Suitability
- MiningLv 3#35 of 57
- KindlingLv 3#26 of 44
- HandiworkLv 3#34 of 109
- GatheringLv 2#52 of 109
- FarmingLv 2#7 of 29
Sootseer is a flexible base worker with 5 of the game's 12 work suitabilities. Mining at level 3 leads the sheet, with Kindling, Handiwork and Gathering behind it. That ranks Sootseer #35 of the 57 Pals with Mining, so it will do the job, but it is not the Pal you keep the station for. It also holds Kindling at level 3 and Handiwork at level 3 — 2 more suitabilities at a level worth actually assigning, which is what makes it valuable in a small base where worker slots are tight.
Farming is a scarce suitability: only 29 Pals in the entire Paldex have it at all, so Sootseer holding it at level 2 is reason enough to keep one around. Sootseer 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.

Where to Find Sootseer
Sootseer is found on the Palpagos Islands map, where the game data places 649 separate spawn points for it. Most of them — 70% — sit on Sakurajima, and the rest turn up in the Volcanic Region. They are packed into a single stretch in the north-west of the map, around X -173k, Y -141k — land there and you are on top of the population.
Wild Sootseer spawn between level 45 and level 67, so the ones you meet late in a run hit noticeably harder than the first you catch. Night changes the picture: Sootseer uses a different set of spawn points after dark, which the Night view above plots separately.
