Otherside Cobblemon Spawns Data Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

Why aren't any Pokemon spawning in the Otherside?
Make sure the data pack is actually placed inside your specific world's datapacks folder and enabled, rather than your mods folder. You also need both Cobblemon and Deeper and Darker running, and you should walk around the dark biomes to let new spawns generate.
Will sculk mobs kill the wild Pokemon before I can catch them?
No, this data pack stops sculk mobs from targeting and attacking the wild Pokemon that spawn in the dimension. Creatures can roam the dark landscape safely until you engage them.
Why are sculk mobs still attacking wild Pokemon in my game?
The safety feature relies on specific mob tags introduced in newer updates of the Deeper and Darker mod. If sculk mobs are still hostile toward wild Pokemon, your copy of Deeper and Darker likely predates that tag support.
Does this data pack stop sculk mobs from attacking players too?
No, the protection only keeps wild Pokemon safe from harm. Sculk mobs in the Otherside will still target and attack you normally while you are exploring or trying to catch creatures.
How do I find the Pokemon added by this pack?
You need to build the portal from the Deeper and Darker mod and travel into the Otherside dimension. Once you arrive, walk around the dark underground biomes to encounter wild Pokemon.
Can I add this data pack to an existing world?
Yes, add it to your existing world save's datapacks folder and run the `/reload` command or restart the world. Wild Pokemon will begin spawning in the Otherside as you explore, even if you have already visited the dimension.
Does this add brand new custom Pokemon species?
No, it takes existing Pokemon from Cobblemon and configures them to spawn naturally across the Otherside dimension. It does not introduce new creatures, items, or blocks.
What mods are required for these spawns to work?
You must have both Cobblemon and Deeper and Darker loaded into your game at the same time. Without both mods present, either the Otherside dimension or the Pokemon themselves will be missing.
How do I check if the data pack is actually enabled in my world?
Type `/datapack list` in the game chat to view all active packs for your current world. If this pack is not listed under enabled, you can turn it on using the `/datapack enable` command.
