Welcome to our Forum, tygerbeeshoney.

I don't have the console version of the game, but I have the Prima Guide, which includes a map of metals.  I see two locations for Palladium.  Just in case you can turn the map, the one I'm looking at has the light house at the bottom and the water tower in the upper right.  The first location is very near the water tower, probably very close to the road in front of it.  The second location is on the other side (still at the top) and looks like it's the criminal warehouse close by.  The spawning location is a little to the left of the warehouse, again probably near the road.  In the PC version, Palladium is a rare metal, so it might not very often, but keep looking and hopefully you'll spot one.

I hope this helps you.

@Deadly Syn:

Palladium is a rare metal that is needed to make a SimBot.

Side note:  I didn't realize you could even build a SimBot on the console version because it's a feature of Ambitions, which I don't think is available on console.  Am I mistaken?

I googled it, and it is a feature of Pets on Xbox 360.

Don't you think that's a bit odd?  To put SimBots in the Pets expansion?

I know. I too find it odd, but every Google result I come to (except a few) all say that SimBots and Inventing are in TS3: Pets for Xbox, at least.

Palladium is the metal needed for the simbot. I have not found the palladium yet. I have found platinum

On the xbox 360 there are no expansion packs. So I have been missing out on some stuff such as vampires, nightclubs, and mixology. Since there is no expansion packs the only way the simbot could be available if they included it on the game its self.
