Meteorite Event
The Meteorite event is a random event that may happen around Palpagos Islands, where Meteorite Fragments or Supply Drops drom from the sky.
The drops only occur once every 3 hours by default, or once per the number of minutes set in the world settings. It's once every real world quantity of minutes and nothing affects it though teleporting seems to always trigger it if you have passed the mark when it can spawn. Having a meteor or supply drop present DOES NOT prevent more from occurring, however they appear to disappear after about 9 real world hours meaning the maximum on map at once seems to be 540.
Meteorites and Supply Drops have set points at which they drop, so they'll always drop at those spots if enough hours passed and you're close to those spots. Best to mark down the spot that these drop on your map so you know where to teleport to when you need it. Starter zones and Wildlife Sanctuaries don't spawn them.
Available Pals
Currently there are three Pals that can spawn during the event.
Selyne: Sakurajima
Xenovader: Grassland, Forest, Volcano, Desert and Snow
Xenogard: Volcano, Desert and Snow
