How do I start Cobblemon?
Craft a Poké Ball from an Apricorn and a button, then throw it at a wild Pokémon to catch it. Your first catch becomes your starter, so pick a common spawn near your base.
How do I see a pokemon's ivs in Cobblemon?
IVs aren't shown by default; you need a mod or datapack that adds an IV checker, or use the Judge function if your pack enables it. Without one, IVs are hidden and only affect stats indirectly.
How do I ride a pokemon in Cobblemon?
Only certain large Pokémon are rideable, and you must have them in your party and meet the mod's riding requirements. Mount them by interacting while they're your active party member.
How do I add legendaries to Cobblemon?
Legendaries aren't in the base mod; you need a datapack or addon that adds them. Install the addon into your world's datapacks folder or mods folder depending on its type.
How do I see pokemon on the map in Cobblemon?
The base mod doesn't include a spawn map; you need a separate minimap or spawn-tracking mod that supports Cobblemon. Check your modpack's mod list for one already included.
How do I change which pokeball I throw?
Put the ball you want in your main hand or offhand and throw it; Cobblemon uses whichever ball is held. Cycle through your hotbar to switch ball types quickly.
How do I fight mobs with my pokemon in Cobblemon?
Send out your Pokémon with the party menu, then target a hostile mob and use a move. Your Pokémon battles the mob directly instead of you fighting it yourself.
How do I heal my pokemon in Cobblemon?
Use a healing item like a Potion from your bag, or place a Healing Machine and interact with it. Pokémon Centers in villages also heal your whole party.
How do I evolve my pokemon in Cobblemon?
Level up your Pokémon to the required level, or use the correct evolution stone or trade item depending on the species. Some evolutions need friendship, time of day, or a specific biome.
Does Cobblemon work on Bedrock or Minecraft pe?
No, Cobblemon is a Java Edition mod and won't run on Bedrock, Pocket Edition, or consoles. You need Java Edition with a compatible mod loader.
Why is Cobblemon laggy on my server?
Large numbers of loaded Pokémon, spawn-heavy biomes, and many players catching at once cause most lag. Reduce spawn rates in the config and limit how many Pokémon are loaded per chunk.
Can I use Cobblemon with other mods?
Yes, Cobblemon is designed to work alongside most mods, but conflicts can happen with mods that change spawning or world generation. Test new mods one at a time if you hit crashes.
