Chikipi overview

Chikipi is a common ice Pal known for its frost coat ability. Frequently sighted in the Twilight Cliffs. It appears most reliably around the Twilight Cliffs. In combat it deals Ice-type damage and slots into a party as a common-tier Ice unit.

Base stats & ratings

HP 316 · ATK 207 · DEF 78 · Speed 67 · Ride Speed 526 · Stamina 126. Pal Stars rates Chikipi PvE 6/10, PvP 3/10, Base 5/10 and Mount 4/10 for Palworld 1.0.

How to catch

Chikipi has a base capture rate of 57 out of 100. Weaken it below 30% HP and use a regular Pal Sphere from behind for the best odds. Elemental advantage (Fire vs Grass, Water vs Fire, Grass vs Water, Electric vs Water, Ground vs Electric, Ice vs Dragon, Dark vs Neutral, Dragon vs Dragon) speeds the weaken step.

Best moveset

Chikipi learns 4 active moves in Palworld 1.0. The strongest rotation is Fireball, Slam, Cross Slash. Pair the highest-power Ice move with a same-type STAB partner so both slots benefit from Ice-boosting passives.

Work suitabilities & base role

Chikipi is tagged for Cooling, Watering. Slot it into a base loop that stacks its highest work value — for example, an cooling and drinks bay line — and give it the Workaholic + Serious passives to squeeze out extra work speed.

Partner skill & mount notes

Chikipi's partner skill "Frost Coat" activates while it rides on your shoulder or is deployed. Its ride speed of 526 makes it a support-only rider — better as a base worker than a full-time mount.
