Pokecenter PC Cobblemon Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to do anything to make PCs appear in Pokémon Centers?
No, the datapack automatically spawns a PC inside every Pokémon Center building when you load a world or generate new villages. You'll find them ready to use without any setup.
Can I break the PC and take it home with me?
No, the PC is protected—if you try to break it, you'll only get standard crafting materials instead of the actual machine block, just like the healing machines in those buildings.
What happens if I try to mine a Pokémon Center PC with a pickaxe?
You'll receive basic crafting drops (like cobblestone or similar materials) instead of the PC block itself, preventing you from relocating it to your base.
Do the PCs work in villages that were already generated before I added the datapack?
PCs will only spawn in newly generated Pokémon Centers; existing villages created before installing the datapack won't have them unless you explore new chunks or use chunk loading tools.
Can other players on my server steal the Pokémon Center PCs?
No, all players are prevented from obtaining the actual PC block—breaking it yields only crafting materials, so no one can move it to a private base.
Do I need to enable this datapack in my world settings?
Yes, you need to add the datapack to your world and enable it through the datapack menu; it won't function if it's disabled or not loaded.
Will this datapack cause lag or performance issues?
The datapack is lightweight since it only places blocks in existing structures and prevents breaking—it shouldn't noticeably impact performance on most servers or single-player worlds.
What if a Pokémon Center doesn't have a PC after I install this?
Make sure the datapack is enabled in your world settings and that you're exploring newly generated villages; older villages won't retroactively receive PCs.
Can I use this datapack with other Cobblemon datapacks?
Yes, this datapack is designed to work alongside other Cobblemon datapacks as long as they don't conflict by modifying the same Pokémon Center structures.
Do the PCs in villages work the same as a PC I craft myself?
Yes, the village PCs function identically to any other PC—they let you access your boxes and manage your Pokémon, but you simply can't remove them from the building.
