Work Suitability
AI Analysis
Overview
Usable from early on, though it doesn't stand out in any particular role (combat power: below average, base work: below average). Use it as an early-game workforce or breeding relay.
Its Partner Skill, Jolt Bomb, turns it into equipment worn by the player.
Hard to justify keeping it in a permanent slot. Use it as a stopgap base worker and swap it out once you land a better Pal. Available from early on, so securing it early makes your early game much easier.
AvailabilityEarly GameWild Lv 4–9
- Equips Player
- Low Upkeep
Strengths
- Appears in the wild from Lv4, so you can secure it early on
- Food 1 is in the lightest bracket (2 or less), so it barely adds to feed costs at the base
- Its Partner Skill equips the player directly, so it's ready for combat as-is
Cautions
- Base stat total of 285 is in the bottom 25% bracket (330 or less), so it's not suited as a main combat unit
- Work suitability tops out at Lv1, so you'll want to swap in a better Pal at the base

Recommended passives
Combat
To build Jolthog for combat, prioritize damage passives such as Legend and Musclehead. Adding Lord of Lightning on top is recommended to further boost the Electric moves it can use at matching element.
Base
To build Jolthog for base work, stacking work passives led by Artisan is recommended. Add Workaholic as well to slow its SAN drain.
Also worth adding
Jolthog isn't nocturnal, so it sleeps at night and work stops. If you want it running around the clock, Insomnia is worth a slot.
Drops (Defeat / Butcher)
Butchering a Pal you caught yields the same items. Butchered Pals will be gone for good.
