I looked up a list of "known" combos but neither one I tried worked so I'm going to start writing down mine. I'm a masochist for minmaxing when I don't need to and want to power up some Lucky pals.
-
Kingpaca (male) + Lucky Sweepa (female) = Melpaca - tried 6 eggs
-
Bishu (male) + Lucky Melpaca = Foxcicle - tried 2 eggs
-
Foxparks (male) + Lucky Melpaca = Maraith - tried 2 eggs
If you've tried any, can you post them below? Please include male/female because that might matter. I want a Kingpaca Cryst!
I don't go on reddit.

Claims are not evidence lmao
Did you look at those clips comparing the two models in Blender where they overlap perfectly? That's pretty damning to me.
Nintendo has already sent cease and desists to mods who put pokemon onto the game. If they thought they had any standing they would have already sent a C&D to Palworld.
Mhmm.
Unsubstantiated claims by Pokemon fans that the designs in Palworld (a game very much inspired by Pokemon) are similar to Pokemon, therefore they were stolen. Okay. ๐
Most of the Pals I've seen that share similarities with Pokemon only share them because the base animal shares those features. Nintendo can't own the idea of a cute sheep in a video game.
Cute Sheep (tm)
Guess we'll see.
The meshes are completely different. Here's a good example, from the article that yourself linked; the meshes don't align, the analogue parts of the body have a completely different number of vertices (Direhowl's extremities are more detailed, while Lycanroc uses a lot more vertices in the main body), the overall shape of the details is different, and even the details themselves differ (e.g. Direhowl has a well-defined nose and a tuft of fur between the ears; Lycanroc has neither).
It would be harder to distort a Lycanroc this way than making it from the scratch.
Side note: as the other user said, claims are not evidences. And Twitter is almost as bad as Reddit when it comes to this crap.
