Of course, in addition there are new Pals for you to catch and add to your team included in the update. One of ꦇthe new pocket monsters in the Paldeck is Yakumo, a very fancy dog-like Pal. If you’re on the hunt for 🐷Yakumo, you’re in luck, because we’re going to show you how to get them.

Where to find Yakumo in Palworld

The only place you can find a Yakumo will be on the new island of Sakurajima. Specifically, you can find this new Sa🔯kurajima Pal in the Dancing Sakura Shrine area.

If you have the Moonflower Tower Entrance Fast Travel point unlocked, use it🃏 to instantly get to the area where you’ll find Yakumos. You can also use the Secluded Cemetery Fast Travel point, but you will need to travel sligﷺhtly southeast from there.

You can find the area th🔴at spawns Yakumos marked on the map below.

How to catch Yakumo in Sakurajima Update

Like all other Pals, Yakumo can be caught by bringing its health down and then throwing a Pal Sphere at it. Once you find the Yakumo you want to catch, begin combat and ⛄bring its health as close to ze🌊ro as you can without killing it.

Since Yakumo is a Neutral-type Pal, it will be weak to Dark-types. Bring a strong combat Dark-type Pal with you𝓰 to battle Yakumo. I recommend a Necromus or Shadowbeak for the best combat abilities, but since Yakumo isn’t particularly strong when it comes to battle, any Dark-type will work.

Aღs soon as their health is low enough, toss a Pal Sphere to catch them su🍒ccessfully. 

You can also hatch Yakumo from a Common Egg using an Egg Incubator. However, since it’s not guaranteed the eg♈g will hatch a Yakumo, this method does take a bit longer.

Yakumo Type, Work Suitability, and Base Stats

Yakumo, as mentioned above, is a Neutral-type Pal. Th✃ey are weak to Dark-types. Unfortunatel꧟y, Neutral-type Pals aren’t strong against any other type. Yakumo is, however, a level two when it comes to the Gathering work suitability, so they are still good to have around your base. 

Yakumo h🎃as a base HP of 85, a base Attack of 85, and a𒈔 base Defense of 85. They aren’t a particularly strong Pal when it comes to combat, so they’re best kept around bases for gathering work and overall just looking cool.
