#18BTaking on electricity to hunt better underwater changed its color, and Pengullet's affection went with it. Oddly, Pengullet Lux now trails it as a loyal follower.

How to Get Penking Lux
Penking Lux can be fished up rather than fought — 9 wild spots of the small kind hold it, at level 30–55. The alpha turns up on the bigger spots, so a rod can hand you one without a fight. Once you have a Fishing Pond at base it shows up there too — 7.3% per catch in the large pool, which is the hands-off way to farm one.
Penking Lux is Water / Electric, so an Electric or Ground attacker takes it down fastest — and a Pal it resists will drag the fight long enough for it to heal or flee.
Its capture rate is 1.0, which makes it exactly average, so weaken it properly and throw from behind for the back-strike bonus.
The dots on the map here are fishing spots, not a walking route. All 252 of them collapse onto 28 pieces of water — each spot is ringed by nine dots that sit within ten metres of it — and Penking Lux is in no overworld and no cavern spawn table, so there is nothing to creep up on with a sphere. The rod is the whole encounter: cast at a marked spot and whatever the pool rolls is what you get to fight.
Phantom Isle is the cheap way in. The three spots around its shipwreck hook this Pal at level 30 to 40, and the closest one sits roughly 100 m from the Phantom Isle statue. Every other option hands you a much older one — the 23 spots ringing Sakurajima and the two inside the No. 3 Wildlife Sanctuary, out past Deep Sand Dunes, all sit in the level 50 to 55 band. Same catch, twenty levels less health to grind down first.
How often the hook is actually this Pal depends on which pool you cast into. The two inland Sakurajima spots weight it at about a third of their whole table, the coastal Sakurajima ones at roughly a ninth, and the Phantom Isle shipwreck pool at around one in fifteen. Shadow size tells you what is on the line before you commit: a small shadow is the ordinary Pal, a medium or large one is the alpha. And if the travel is the tedious part, a Fishing Pond at base rolls it as 7.3% of the large-shadow pool at level 36 to 48, plus 0.4% for the alpha, which turns a Sakurajima expedition into something that happens while you do other things.
Playing Penking Lux Well
It is the only Pal in the game that can run a generator and swing at an ore node. Nothing else in the Paldeck carries Generating Electricity and Mining together at all — every other electric worker leaves the ore to somebody else — and this one holds rank 3 in both, adds Transporting 3 on top, and eats 4 food units doing it. In a base short on slots that is two Pals folded into one.
