AI Analysis

Overview

Obtainable only in the late game, and it doesn't stand out in any particular role (combat power: below average, base work: below average). By this stage, better Pals are already available, so treat it as a breeding relay or Palpedia filler.

Hard to justify keeping it in a permanent slot. By this point you'll already have better options, so there's no need to force yourself to raise it. It's a late-game acquisition, so cover the gap with other Pals until then.

AvailabilityLate GameWild Lv 65–69

Night Shift

Strengths

Nocturnal, so it keeps working through the night without sleeping

Cautions

Work suitability tops out at Lv1, so you'll want to swap in a better Pal at the base
Defense 80 is in the bottom 25% bracket (80 or less), leaving it vulnerable to hits
