Farm Bones and Gunpowder Efficiently

Target the Right Pokémon

Bones and gunpowder are in the Plentiful Tier, meaning they drop in large stacks when you defeat Pokémon. Focus on species that naturally fit the skeleton or creeper aesthetic—ground-type and electric-type Pokémon tend to yield these resources most reliably.

Maximize Drop Quantities

The data pack scales drops based on Pokémon strength, rarity, and size. Defeat stronger or heavier creatures to receive more bones and gunpowder per battle. Evolved forms and pseudo-legendaries will give significantly larger stacks than their base-form counterparts.

Set Up a Grinding Route

Locate areas where your target Pokémon spawn frequently. Use Poké Balls to engage in repeated battles rather than catching them—defeating them grants the item drops. Stock healing items and Poké Balls to maintain a steady grinding session.

Organize Your Inventory

Since drops are limited to small pools per species, your inventory won't become cluttered. Store bones and gunpowder in separate chests to track your progress and plan crafting projects like bone meal or TNT production.
