Palworld Base Pals Ownership Viewer

Tool for retrieving player ownership of guild base pals from Palworld save file.

This tool will print out the pal information (name, nickname, gender, level, max health, and boss/lucky status) of all guild base pals (or of a single guild if specified) as grouped by guild, base, and player. This tool is also capable of saving the pal ownership data to a JSON file if requested.

Note

Some pals may have been owned by multiple players throughout their lifetime. This tool will only display the first player to have owned that pal (i.e. the player who first caught or hatched the pal). Such pals will be denoted by an asterisk (*) next to their name in the console printout.
