The table above shows every Pal with a Gathering Work Suitability, along with its level. The Higher the level of the Work Suitability, the faster they are at completing tasks of that Work Suitability.

Work Suitabilties Can be Upgraded

By using the Pal Essence Condenser, it's possible to upgrade all of a Pal's Work Suitabilities by one level. This is important because it's the only way to get a Pal with a Lv. 5 Work Suitability! As long as the Pal already has a Lv. 4 Work Suitability, it'll be upgraded to Lv. 5 once it's been ranked up to 4-Stars

How to Get a Level 5 Work Suitability Pal

Best Late Game Gathering Work Suitability Pals

Single Focus Gathering Pal

List of Pals
Frostallion NoctFrostallion Noct
GatheringGathering Lv. 4
Food: 7/10

Frostallion Noct is the best Pal for focused Gathering tasks since it is the only Pal with Gathering Lv. 4, plus it has no other Work Suitabilities. This means that it won't get distracted by other tasks and can solely focus on anything that needs Gathering.

Multiple Work Suitability Gathering Pal

List of Pals
VerdashVerdash
PlantingPlanting Lv. 2
HandiworkHandiwork Lv. 3
LumberingLumbering Lv. 2
GatheringGathering Lv. 3

Verdash is the best multitasking Gathering Pal because it has the combination of Planting, Gathering, and Transporting, meaning that it can transport whatever crops it harvests.

Also, it can do Handiwork and Lumbering tasks while waiting for its planted crops to grow.

Uses for Gathering Work Suitability

Harvesting Fully Grown Crops

List of Technology
Palworld- Berry PlantationBerry Plantation Palworld- Carrot PlantationCarrot Plantation Palworld- Lettuce PlantationLettuce Plantation
Palworld- Onion PlantationOnion Plantation Palworld- Potato PlantationPotato Plantation Palworld- Tomato PlantationTomato Plantation
Palworld- Wheat PlantationWheat Plantation

All of the Plantations in the game need a Gathering Pal to harvest their crops that have fully grown. Remember to also include Planting and Watering Pals in your base, otherwise there will be no crops to harvest.

Flower Bed Gives a Boost to Gathering Speed

List of Technology
Palworld- Flower BedFlower Bed

The Flower Bed is not a structure that requires Gathering, but instead is a structure that passively boosts the work speed of any task that requires Gathering.

This will heavily reduce the time it takes to harvest crops, allowing new seeds to be sown sooner.

Ack, should have read the whole site. Apparently level five is attainable through condensing to 4 stars. That was a while back and can't believe I didn't notice.

1 Knapweed Knapweed over 1 year

Not only is Frostallion Noct the best gatherer in the game at level 4, mine has just hit Gatherer level 5 at level 49! The level 5 may have happened earlier but I just happened to notice it when she dinged. IMO, the Frostallion Noct is the best PAL in the game
