Breeding Alpha/Lucky pals for size?

[Silkspider]

If you breed two alpha pals, is the child an alpha as well? And if not, then is the lucky trait something that can be bred so the pal still gets the increased size?

[Skylandy]

The specific lucky trait can be passed down through breeding (even to hybrids/other pal types). Can confirm since I did it with my shiny boar pal. The size though? I have no idea.

Just to add, the size of the pal with the trait was the same as normal, just had the boosted stat cos of the trait. Again, no idea if the size can be bred down or not.

So only wild caught lucky pals have the increased size? the ones I've caught were bigger than ones without the trait.

*EDIT* According to this guide, they get the trait, but not the size.

Whelp, so much for my ambitions of a workforce of extra-large mammorests....

I wonder if alpha's can be randomly born? Like the offspring will always be the same pal but once in a super rare white it's an alpha? So far it seems cosmetic either way.

don't worry, bosses respawn, you can farm the boss spawns with a delay

It is not Cosmetics, the alpha normally has a huge buff in hp, compare a perfectly bred pal vs a Alpha pal and the alpha will in most cases have a higher health status

So is it possible for alpha bosses (in caves or set) to also be lucky?

bro im literally looking at my two katress both at 23, one of em is an alpha and the other isn't, literally less than 8 hp apart.

It's good the size is not taken over after a breed. Having 15 large pals in base is anoying because you loose overview and the base looks messy and crowded.

I wish I could make certain pals smaller so they dont block my view so much. Maybe a certain ingredient in the cake 🍰 like Alice in wonderland.

Been doing a bit of breeding and late endgame capturing and I can confirm that the alphas are exactly the same but bigger, EXCEPT in the case of the four legendary pals (Frostallion, Jetragon, Paladius, and Necromus) who actually do have more than double the hp in the captured alpha versions over the bred versions.

Also to address OP's question, breeding the lucky trait into something doesn't give it the extra size, and also I'm either just having some terrible RNG or you might not be able to breed the lucky trait through generations, as I'm trying to make a lucky relaxaurus from a bred Anubis that has both lucky and legend.

I passed the lucky trait on 3 times in a row while Vaelet breeding with Maraith as the only lucky parent! That leads me to think certain breeding combos are more likely to produce a certain trait than others.
