How to Set Up Your World and Catch Your First Pokémon

Before jumping into a survival world with the Pokemon Revival Addon, you need to ensure your world settings are configured so all custom mechanics function properly.

Enabling Experimental Settings

If features like custom UIs, spawning, or items do not work properly when you load in, exit to the main menu and edit your world settings. Scroll down to the Experiments section and toggle on the Experimental Settings before reloading the world. This applies to both singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers or Realms.

Choosing a Starter and Catching Wild Pokémon

1. Starter Selection: When you first begin your adventure, use the starter selection system to pick your initial Pokémon companion.

2. Locating Wild Spawns: Explore different vanilla and custom biomes. Wild Pokémon spawn naturally based on the specific biome you are currently in.

3. Throwing Poké Balls: Equip a Poké Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball, or another ball variant in your hotbar. Aim directly at the wild Pokémon and throw the ball to attempt a capture, similar to the mechanics in *Pokémon Legends: Arceus*.

4. Tracking Progress: As you encounter and catch different species across biomes, check your Pokédex tracker to monitor your collection progress. If you are playing in Creative mode, you can also spawn Pokémon and items directly from the creative menu.
