Why can't I ride the new Pokemon like Gliscor or Mamoswine?
Make sure the expansion is placed inside your specific world's datapacks folder, not your main mods folder. You also must have the original Cobblemon: Ride On! mod active, as this data pack only adds creature data and cannot handle riding mechanics on its own.
How do I mount the new Pokemon added by this pack?
Because this is an expansion for Cobblemon: Ride On!, you mount the newly supported Pokemon using the exact same controls and mechanics as the base riding mod. No special extra items or separate keybinds are introduced by this data pack.
Can I add this data pack to a world I am already playing?
Yes, you can drop the pack into the datapacks folder of any existing world save. If the world is currently running, run the /reload command in chat so the game registers the new mount data.
Do I need to evolve my Pokemon all the way to ride them?
Not always, as this pack includes several mid-stage evolutions alongside fully evolved creatures. You can ride mid-stage Pokemon like Boldore, Grotle, Lairon, Metang, and Sealeo before evolving them into their final forms.
Why am I floating in the air or clipping inside my Pokemon's back when riding?
Every Pokemon in this expansion has custom seating coordinates configured so your character sits properly on its model. If your seating position looks broken, the data pack may be overridden by another pack or failed to load—run /datapack list to verify it is enabled.
Does this pack change how fast mounts move?
Yes, alongside making over 30 additional creatures rideable, the data pack adjusts mount movement speeds so traveling across your world feels smoother and better paced.
Does everyone on a multiplayer server need to have this data pack?
Data packs are loaded by the server, so installing it in the server's world datapacks folder applies the mount support and speed adjustments for everyone. However, all connecting players must still have Cobblemon and the base Cobblemon: Ride On! mod installed on their clients.
Are there flying and water mounts included in the expansion?
Yes, the roster covers airborne creatures like Braviary, Corviknight-style flyers such as Skarmory, Crobat, Drifblim, Gliscor, and Mandibuzz, as well as aquatic Pokemon like Dewgong, Finizen, Floatzel, Palafin, Relicanth, and Walrein. Their actual movement capabilities in air or water follow the rules of the base Cobblemon: Ride On! mod.
Why isn't my starter's first stage rideable with this pack?
This expansion focuses on mid-stage and fully evolved Pokemon large enough to carry a player, such as Grotle, Scizor, Copperajah, and Krookodile. Small unevolved Pokemon are not included in the new mount list.
Will adding over 30 new mounts cause lag in my world?
No, because this expansion is purely a data pack that assigns riding stats and seat offsets to existing Cobblemon entities. It does not add new creature models, world generation, or background scripts that would lower your framerate.
