What is a Soul card in Palworld TCG?

A Soul card is a resource card kept in a separate Soul zone. You stand Souls each turn and rest them to pay ◇ costs, or rest 3 to draw a card once per main phase.

How many Soul cards do you need?

You need a full Soul row as defined by the current rules; trial decks ship enough standard Souls to play immediately, so promos only ever replace existing Souls.

Do promo Souls play differently?

No. ESOUL-000, ESOUL-002 and ESOUL-003 match the standard ESOUL-001 text. The difference is rarity stamp and artwork.

Where does the gold Cattiva Soul come from?

ESOUL-002 is the SSS Ultra Secret Gold Card Soul, pulled from EBP01 boosters rather than handed out at events.

How do you spot a fake promo Soul?

Compare the code, PR stamp placement, foil pattern and printed rest-3-to-draw text against the official scans on this page, then confirm the code in the Pal Stars /cards database.
