Summary
APalworldplayer recently captured a Mammorest, despite having around a 0% chance of being successful in their attempt. Nicknamed “Pokemonwith guns” by fans,Palworldhas been a huge hitsince its launch, attracting millions of gamers.
Palworld’s release was an unexpected success. Its developer Pocket Pair is a small indie studio, and many gamers did not take the title very seriously before the launch. However,Palworldbecame the third game with the most concurrent players in Steam’s history in less than a week, losing only toPUBGandCounter-Strike 2.Palworldalso sold over five million copies so far, and it does not seem that its sales are slowing down.
Now, a gamer has shared their incredible feat: catching a high-level Mammorest despite having a 0% chance of succeeding. Normally,Palworldplayers would need to use advanced Poke Ball-like items called Pal Spheres to catch high-level creatures, as well as weaken them first. Generally, this would not be feasible at low levels. However, due to sheer luck, the player managed to do it at Lv.9 against a Lv.33 enemy and using the most basic Pal Spheres. In the short clip, it’s possible to see the player sneaking up on the Mammorest and trying to capture it. They fail the first time, but during the second attempt, their 0% chance quickly becomes 0.15%, increasing to 8% after some moments. Finally, it reaches 100% and they capture the big mammoth-like Pal.
Catching unlikely creatures is one of the main thrills of playingPalworld. Some gamers have recently discovered, though, that it’s alsopossible to capture other humans inPalworld, such as villagers or hunters. While humans do not seem capturable at first, the Pal Spheres also work on them, albeit with lower percentages than usual. To make this act even more controversial, captured humans can be sold later on the black market, and often fetch a high sum.
Capturing humans is not even the most controversial aspect ofPalworld, though. Soon after its release,Palworldwas accused of plagiarizingPokemonby copying the designs of several creatures. Examples of these alleged plagiarism cases include Lamball’s similarities with Wooloo, Cattiva’s with Zorua, and Lifmunk’s with Leafeon, for example. However, it’s hard to determine whether these similarities are enough to constitute plagiarism or not, which is likely to keep fueling the discussion asPalworldcontinues to be at the top of sales charts.
