What is Cattiva Noct's capture rate?

Cattiva Noct has a base capture rate of 18 out of 100 in Palworld 1.0. Weakening it below 30% HP and attacking from behind with a matching-tier Pal Sphere substantially improves the odds.

What element is Cattiva Noct weak to?

Cattiva Noct is a Dark-type Pal. That means it takes extra damage from Dragon and resists Neutral. Bring a partner of that counter-element for the fastest weaken.

Cattiva Noct is tagged for Farming, Medicine Production. On the Pal Stars base tier list it rates 4/10 — an okay backup worker; specialists usually outperform it.

Is Cattiva Noct a good mount?

Cattiva Noct's ride speed is 885, earning it a 6/10 mount rating on Pal Stars. It's a competent traversal mount for its element.

What are Cattiva Noct's best passive skills?

For PvE damage, stack Musclehead + Ferocious + Lucky on Cattiva Noct. For a base role, swap in Workaholic + Serious + Artisan. Reroll unwanted traits with the Trait Extractor at the Ancient Tech bench.

How do you breed Cattiva Noct?

Cattiva Noct's breed power seat determines its parent pairings. Cross two parents whose combined breed power averages closest to Cattiva Noct's, put them at a Breeding Farm with a Grade S Cake, and incubate the egg for the best hatch rate. The Pal Stars breeding calculator lists every valid pairing.
