How to breed Jormuntide in Palworld

There are 87 parent pairs that hatch Jormuntide in Palworld 1.0, all of them ordinary maths, no special recipe: Jormuntide sits at breeding power 590, so any two parents whose powers average out to that number hatch Jormuntide. All of them are read straight from the 1.0 game files, not copied from an Early Access spreadsheet, and the table below sorts them by how easy the parents are to get. The most reachable is Jormuntide + Beakon Cryst; the calculator above already has Jormuntide selected if you want to filter by a parent you own.

How the maths gets to Jormuntide

Every Pal has a hidden breeding power; Jormuntide sits at 590. When two parents breed, the game adds their two numbers, halves the total rounding up, and hatches whichever Pal is nearest that result. So any pair whose numbers average out to 590 (or nearer to 590 than to any other Pal) gives Jormuntide: that is why so many different pairs land on the same egg, and why the pairs above cluster around parents whose powers straddle 590.

Worked examples from the table: Jormuntide (590) + Beakon Cryst (580) → 585; Reptyro Cryst (600) + Beakon Cryst (580) → 590. When two Pals sit at exactly the same distance from the average, a fixed priority order decides, which is why a few pairs that look like they should tie do not.

Jormuntide + Jormuntide always hatches Jormuntide: breeding two of the same species is how you farm passives once you have a pair.
