Cobblemon Additions FAQ

It adds two blocks: the Pokemon Spawner and the Pokemon Trial Spawner. The Pokemon Spawner spawns Pokemon on its own, and the Pokemon Trial Spawner runs wave-based battles that reward you when you clear them.

Craft the Pokemon Spawner using its recipe in a crafting table, then place it where you want Pokemon to appear. Check the recipe in JEI or REI if you have a recipe viewer installed.

Place the block, then open its interface to configure which Pokemon should spawn and the conditions for spawning. A spawner with no Pokemon configured will sit there doing nothing, which is the most common reason players think it is broken.

The usual causes are an empty spawn configuration, the spawner being outside its valid spawn conditions, or the chunk not being loaded. Open the spawner's interface and confirm a Pokemon is set, then check that players are nearby and the area meets the spawn requirements.

The Pokemon Trial Spawner runs a structured encounter: it spawns waves of Pokemon that you fight through, and completing the trial gives rewards. The regular Pokemon Spawner just spawns Pokemon continuously without the wave structure or reward.

Place the Trial Spawner, configure the Pokemon and waves you want, then activate it to begin the encounter. Once the trial starts, defeat each wave as it appears until the trial completes and the reward is given.

Yes, the spawner's interface lets you set which Pokemon it produces rather than spawning random ones. This is what makes it useful for building farms, gym challenges, or themed encounter areas.

Yes, the mod is built for NeoForge and is designed to run alongside Cobblemon on that loader. Make sure your Cobblemon version matches what the mod expects, since a mismatch is a common cause of it not loading.

Yes, the blocks work fine inside modpacks, and datapacks can be used to control spawn data and related configuration. If you are packaging it into a modpack, include it as a normal mod dependency alongside Cobblemon.

Each active spawner adds entities to the world, so many spawners running at once can hurt performance, especially with high spawn rates. Keep spawn rates reasonable, avoid stacking spawners in one area, and unload or disable ones you are not using.
