# Dataset Card for Palworld Breeding Reference

## Dataset Summary

Palworld Breeding Reference is an unofficial structured dataset built from the data powering **[Pal Breeding Calculator 1.0](https://palbreedingcalculator.org)**, a live **palworld breeding calculator 1.0** website focused on current breeding lookups, searchable **palworld pals**, and direct **palworld breeding combos**.

This dataset is designed for developers, SEO-driven content builders, fan tool makers, and community researchers who need reusable Palworld breeding data in machine-friendly formats. It can support lookup tools, analytics dashboards, content generation pipelines, and search experiences related to **palworld breeding calculator**, **palworld 1.0 pals**, and popular targets such as **anubis palworld** routes.

The source website is:

- [https://palbreedingcalculator.org](https://palbreedingcalculator.org)

## Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

This is a reference dataset rather than a benchmark dataset. It is suitable for:

- Building a palworld breeding calculator 1.0 experience
- Search and retrieval over palworld breeding combos
- Entity lookup for palworld pals and palworld 1.0 pals
- Target-to-parent and parent-to-child routing tools
- Content enrichment for pages about anubis palworld and anubis breeding 1.0

## Languages

The dataset content is primarily in English.

}
```

#### `children_summary` split example

```json

  "combo_count": 1358,
  "gender_specific_combo_count": 0,
  "has_gender_specific_combo": false
}
```

### Data Fields

#### `pals`

- `pal_id`: Internal Pal identifier such as `1:0` or `121:1`
- `name`: Pal display name
- `dex_no`: Paldeck number or variant-style number like `121B`
- `is_variant`: Whether the Pal is a variant form
- `is_special_entry`: Whether the entry has no standard Paldeck number
- `image_path`: Site-relative image path
- `image_url`: Absolute image URL on the source website
- `source_site`: Source website URL

#### `breeding_combos`

- `combo_id`: Sequential row id
- `child_id`, `child_name`, `child_dex_no`: Child Pal fields
- `parent_a_id`, `parent_a_name`, `parent_a_dex_no`: Parent A fields
- `parent_b_id`, `parent_b_name`, `parent_b_dex_no`: Parent B fields
- `parent_a_gender`, `parent_b_gender`: Gender requirements for the combo
- `ordered_parent_key`: Parent pair key preserving order and gender
- `unordered_parent_key`: Normalized parent pair key without order

#### `children_summary`

- `child_id`, `child_name`, `child_dex_no`: Child Pal fields
- `combo_count`: Number of direct breeding combos that produce the child
- `gender_specific_combo_count`: Number of combos with explicit gender rules
- `has_gender_specific_combo`: Whether any combo for the child depends on gender

## Data Splits

This repository exposes three logical splits:

- `pals`
- `breeding_combos`
- `children_summary`

In addition to JSONL files, spreadsheet-friendly CSV exports are included in the `data/` directory.

## Dataset Creation

### Curation Rationale

The goal of this dataset is to make the data behind a modern **palworld breeding calculator 1.0** reusable outside the website itself. Many community pages discuss **palworld breeding combos**, **palworld pals**, or high-interest targets like **anubis palworld**, but the underlying data is often buried in UI code, hard to query, or not packaged for downstream use.

This dataset turns that information into portable tabular files that can be used in apps, search systems, content workflows, and community tooling. It is especially useful for projects that need current **palworld 1.0 pals** coverage and direct combo lookup behavior similar to the live calculator.

### Source Data

The dataset is exported from the Pal Breeding Calculator project:

- Website: [https://palbreedingcalculator.org](https://palbreedingcalculator.org)
- Source files:
  - `src/data/palbreeding/pals.json`
  - `src/data/palbreeding/all-combos.json`
  - `src/data/palbreeding/combos-by-child.json`

### Personal and Sensitive Information

This dataset does not contain personal data or sensitive personal information.

## Dataset Statistics

Current exported snapshot:

- Export date: July 16, 2026
- Total Pal entries: `299`
- Variant entries: `84`
- Special entries with no standard Paldeck number: `11`
- Direct breeding combo rows: `44,486`
- Target child entries: `299`

The dataset includes both broad coverage for general **palworld breeding calculator** use and deeper routing data for heavily searched targets such as **anubis breeding 1.0**.

## Uses

### Direct Use

This dataset can be used directly for:

- Building a palworld breeding calculator 1.0 or palworld breeding calculator interface
- Powering search for palworld pals and palworld 1.0 pals
- Rendering tables of palworld breeding combos
- Creating wiki pages or landing pages for anubis palworld breeding routes
- Building filters for players who want to find parent paths for anubis breeding 1.0

### Out-of-Scope Use

This dataset is not intended to:

- Model passive inheritance quality
- Predict IV outcomes
- Estimate mutation odds
- Replace in-game verification for future updates
- Serve as an official Pocketpair data source

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations

- This is an unofficial community dataset and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Pocketpair.
- It focuses on direct breeding-result mapping, not the full optimization layer players may care about after finding a valid combo.
- Some use cases, such as ranking the best route to **anubis palworld**, still require additional game logic around passives, availability, or progression.
- Source game data may change over time, so future Palworld patches can make parts of this snapshot stale.
- Image binaries are not bundled; only paths and URLs are included.

## Recommendations

If you are building a public-facing **palworld breeding calculator 1.0** page or content experience, keep this dataset paired with a visible freshness note and re-export it after major game updates. For SEO-oriented implementations, it is best used to support helpful pages about **palworld breeding combos**, **palworld 1.0 pals**, and intent-heavy searches like **anubis breeding 1.0**, rather than thin keyword pages.

## Additional Information

The repository also includes:

- `dataset-metadata.json` for export metadata
- CSV versions for spreadsheet users
- JSONL versions for pipelines and programmatic ingestion
