Kades Cobblemon Recipe Additions Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need Mythic Metals installed for this data pack to work?
No, the data pack works standalone with just Cobblemon. Mythic Metals recipes are optional additions—if you don't have Mythic Metals installed, those specific recipes simply won't appear.
How do I craft Pokéballs now that this data pack is installed?
Pokéballs can now be crafted using materials from Mythic Metals or standard Minecraft ingredients, depending on which recipe you choose. Check your crafting menu or JEI/REI for the available options.
Where do I find apricorn saplings if I have Farming for Blockheads?
Apricorn saplings are added directly to the Farming for Blockheads market block, so you can purchase them from the trading interface instead of finding them in the world.
What's changed about recipe costs and progression?
Many Cobblemon item recipes have been rebalanced to adjust survival progression—some are cheaper, others more expensive—to create a more consistent difficulty curve. Use JEI or REI to see the exact costs for each recipe.
Can I use Alloy Forgery materials to craft creature gear?
Yes, Alloy Forgery materials are integrated into creature-focused item recipes, giving you alternative crafting paths if you're working with that mod.
Does this data pack add recipes for Mega Showdown items?
Yes, it includes crafting recipes for items from Mega Showdown, expanding your options beyond base Cobblemon.
Will this data pack conflict with other recipe mods?
Data packs generally have low conflict risk, but if you're using other mods that heavily modify Cobblemon recipes, test your world first to ensure they work together smoothly.
How do I see all the new recipes?
Use JEI (Just Enough Items) or REI to search for Cobblemon items—the mod will display all available crafting recipes, including the new ones added by this data pack.
Can I disable specific recipes I don't want?
Data packs don't have built-in toggles, but you can manually edit the data pack files to remove specific recipes if you're comfortable with JSON editing.
Does this data pack affect performance or cause lag?
No, data packs are lightweight and don't cause performance issues—this one simply adds recipe definitions without adding blocks, entities, or complex logic.
