    Tombat appears in grassland (Lv 10–13), Sealed Realm of Terraria (Lv 36–38), snow (Lv 38–45) dungeons, and can be the dungeon boss. Dungeons open and close over time, so look for the cave icons on your map.

How to catch it

  • Be close to level 14 or above, with Pals that level too.
  • Bring Dragon Pals. They hit Tombat extra hard.
  • Lower its health first, then throw your best Pal Spheres. Throwing at its back gives a catch bonus.
  • Look at night. It only appears after dark.
