Wispaw is the Dark Pal at No. 050 — a new 1.0 phantom cat trailed by ghostly hands. It is a World Tree-region catch whose partner skill rewards stealth captures.

Partner skill
Death-Cheating Feline — "While in party, increases the capture rate when awarded a back bonus (does not stack)." Sneak up for a back-attack capture and Wispaw makes that throw far more likely to land.

Melee 100, Shot 95, Stamina 100. Rarity value 5, Size S. The four displayed stats use Attack = Shot 95 — a strong ranged number backed by 100 melee. It fights as well as it works. Type matchup. Dark is strong against Neutral and Dark and weak to Dragon — bring a Dragon Pal to catch it. Work speed 100 is the series default.

The practical breakdown of Death-Cheating Feline.

Better sneak capturesWhen you earn the back-bonus (approaching a Pal from behind) on a capture throw, Wispaw raises that throw's capture rate — a compounding boost for players who hunt carefully.
Does not stackOne is enough.
Why it mattersCapture rate is the whole early game; a bonus that rewards good positioning quietly fills your Paldex faster.

The story of Wispaw

"The ghostly hands behind it embody the souls of all humans who have raised its kind. Lately, they seem to have reached a unanimous consensus to dote on Wispaw."

Wispaw is a cat carried by its own history: the spirits of every keeper who ever loved one of its kind, gathered behind it and united in spoiling it. It is one of the sweeter entries in the World Tree bestiary — an "Adorable Phantom Thief" whose skill quietly makes you a better hunter.

Field notes
— from the log of a Pal keeper

Day 30. First saw one deep in the World Tree, ghost-hands and all. Unsettling and adorable.

Day 31. Its capture bonus on back-attacks is real — my sneak throws land far more often now.

Day 33. Handiwork Lv 2 plus a dash of Medicine Production; a tidy late base worker.

Day 40. Hit Lv 70 and it learned Dark Whisp. It fights as hard as it thieves.
