How to find and catch Bushi in Palworld

My Bushi and I will conquer the world!

Bushi is a potent Fire Pal in Palworld that looks a bit like a samurai. In addition to its powerful Brandish Blade Partner Skill, you can use Bushi to fill a number of jobs back at your base.

Description“Its body becomes a blade upon death, to be taken up by the next generation. If someone other than a Bushi wields this blade, the soul within torments them until they are driven mad.”

Bushi’s location in Palworld

Bushi comes in two shapes—regular Pal and Alpha Pal. While regular Pals go on hunts with you and help you with errands in your base, Alpha Pals are boss versions. Regular Pals spawn in the wild, and Alpha Pal Bushi is in a dungeon

If you’re hunting for Bushi, head to the volcanoes in the northeast or to the southwest. If you want to be faster, I suggest you take a mount. Remember, there are ground and flying mounts. 

You can also capture Alpha Pal Bushi by traveling to the Sealed Realm of the Swordmaster in the southwest. In the middle, you can enter a dungeon and defeat Alpha Pal Bushi.

Bushi is a Fire-type Pal, so naturally, the easiest way to counter it is to bring along a Water-type Pal and let them use water abilities.

We recommend bringing along RelaxaurusBroncherry Aqua, or Suzaku Aqua. If you don’t have any of these, any Water-type Pal will work just fine. Also, try to bring along Mega or Giga Spheres unless you plan to spam Pal Spheres at Bushi.

Tip:

It’s always good to remember that Pals who fight alongside you aren’t very merciful. You’ll have to call them off if you’re trying to catch the Pal you’re fighting, or they’ll go for the kill.

You should have at least two Pals in your Party when fighting Bushi so you can swap between them. This encounter is a bit more demanding, and you have to carefully dodge Bushi’s abilities or suffer great damage.

Bushi uses and breeding combos in Palworld

Bushi is decently strong, and its Partner Skill is definitely made for combat, but its Lumbering level three work suitability shouldn’t be ignored either. Lumbering is, after all, something you’ll constantly be doing when base building.

One of the best things about Bushi, however, is it can help you get some pretty rare Pals through breeding — including breeding Anubis! Here are just a few of the many breeding possibilities for Bushi:
