While you cannot change their Partner Skills or Passive Skills, there’s actually a way for them to learn new Active Skills. Here’s how it’s done.

Palworld: How to teach Pals Active Skills

There are two main ways for your Pals to learn new abilities. You can teach Pals new Active Skills in Palworld by leveling them up or giving them Skill Fruit. The first method is the easiest, as your Pals will slowly level up as you do.

Keep the Pals you want to progressively level up in your party at nearly all times. This will ensure that whenever you earn EXP, they get some EXP as well. At certain points, your Pals can learn new Active Skills. If you check your Paldeck, these Active Skills are some of the moves they can use during combat encounters.

Your Pals have a minimum amount of Active Skills in their arsenals. Luckily, if they learn something new but they run out of room, you can easily swap them out under the Party tab. Select your Pal, and click on the Active Skills to see if you can swap them out.

Palworld: The Skill Fruit method

The only other known way to teach Pals new skills is by giving them Skill Fruit. I came across one randomly while exploring the open world. These fruits will have a certain type and specific Active Skill to give to a Pal.

You can also purchase Skill Fruits from various traveling merchants you come across in the open world. Other than that, players have also been able to spot Skill Fruit trees. You can’t miss their glowing blue bark. Harvest some Skill Fruits from these trees, and return later on to see them regrown.
