How to Catch Mobs with a Pokeball

Throwing the Pokeball

With your crafted Pokeball in hand, approach the target mob you want to capture and transport. Press the Q key (which is the default keybind) to throw your Pokeball. Throwing a Pokeball is notably stronger than throwing a normal item, giving it better momentum.

Capturing and Returning

After the Pokeball lands near the target, it will open up and attempt to catch the mob. Once the mob is captured, the Pokeball will close and automatically try to return to the player. Make sure you do not try to catch a mob while you are sitting on it, as you must dismount first to ensure a successful capture and retrieval process.
