Defeating a high-level Syndicate boss like Victor and Shadowbeak will earn a lot of XP and legendary items in Palworld. So, if you are planning to slay the last Tower boss, here is a complete guide about the Victor and Shadowbeak location and a step-by-step procedure to defeat it.
Palworld Victor and Shadowbeak Location (Map)
Before taking down the boss, you should know the location of Victor and Shadowbeak inside the game. As mentioned above, the trainer and the Pal are available at the Tower of the Pal Genetic Research (-142, 437). You can locate this Tower on the northwest part of the island at the center of the snow biome. Use the below image for a pictorial reference of the area.

How to beat Victor and Shadowbeak in Palworld
Since Victor and Shadowbeak are the final Syndicate Tower Boss in Palworld, it's better to reach level 50 and have most of your stats maxed out. So, focus on doing that before anything.
For the loadout, any weapon with a damage output above 300 is efficient for the battle. I used a Legendary Crossbow and High-Quality Armor for the fight, which I received after defeating Bushi. Also, wear a Defense, Attack, or Life Pendant if you have one.
Shadowbeak is a Dark type of Pal. So, to counter it hard, you must use a dragon Pal. I used a Jetdragon for the fight. But you can go with any high-level Dragon Pals like Quivern, Chillet, or Astegon for the battle. Keep such Pals in your party and go to the Pal Genetic Tower to start the fight.
The attack strategy is pretty simple. Shadowbeak usually uses Dark/Ice type orb or beam attacks at the player. When you see an orb attack, move away from the area and don't stand next to it as it can one-shot you. To counter the beam style moves, use the various stone corners as covers until it is over. Other than that, keep dodging/rolling, and use your Pals as cover until you deplete its 21,000 HP.
Note: There is a trick/glitch to take down every Syndicate Tower Bosses in Palworld within seconds using the PIDF Infantry officials. Though legal, I won't recommend the method as it takes the whole fun out of battling the boss.
How to get Pendants in Palworld
Pendants are accessory items available as random drop rewards from the dungeon/sanctuary chests or after defeating Alpha Pals in the game. There is no guaranteed method of getting one. So, keep repeating the prescribed task until you receive a Pendant.
How to breed a Shadowbeak in Palworld
If you want to breed a Shadowbeak on your base, you will require a male Kitsun and a female Astegon or vice versa. Assign the prescribed Pals to your breeding farm and provide a cake to start the process. Once the timer expires, you will get a Shadowbeak egg. Keep it inside an incubator until it hatches into a beautiful baby Shadowbeak.
