NOTICE: If you’re not using the Technic Launcher, update to Forge 2847! Release Date: June 3rd
Hey everyone! It’s been a while… We’ve been busy! As of this release, we’re now returning to our regular release schedule. A few things to note with this release, we’ve decided to pull a few features from the release so we could get this out in time. As such, our next update will be another rather large update shortly after this, including many more, if not all, Pokemon from Gen 8. Thanks for being patient and we hope you enjoy everything this update has to offer.
Our inspiration for this update came from the lack of symmetry Pixelmon has with Minecraft. For years, Pixelmon has more so replaced Minecraft and cut out many features. We wanted to fill that void a bit to create a better experience, and also fill the knowledge gap so new players can enjoy the game without constant google searches trying to figure out what does what. Enjoy and keep an eye out for another update very soon!

• Added full Biomes O Plenty Support
  • Modpack now includes Biomes O Plenty
• Every single Pokemon has a new spawn location based on their biology, where they spawned in games, and their typing

  • Transfer Moves can be obtained via the Transfer NPC Tutor. If you’re unsure what this means, here’s a basic example of how Transfer Moves work in the games:
  • We’ll use Gengar for an example. In Pokemon Sun & Moon, Gengar lost the ability to learn Icy Wind. In ORAS, Gengar could learn Icy Wind. You could teach Gengar Icy Wind in ORAS and transfer that Gengar to Sun & Moon via trade methods and have a unique Gengar with Icy Wind it normally can’t have in Sun & Moon

Developers/Code/Events

• Added PlayerPokedexEvent

• Added UseZMoveEvent

• Added TrainerAISetupEvent
• Added UseBattleItemEvent

• Changed PlayerBattleExpEvent to PlayerBattleGainEvent and added the ability to alter EV Gains
• All Events have moved to proper getters and setters
• Refractored, moved, and modified pretty much the entire mod. Although porting custom sidemods and plugins should be pretty straight forward. If you run into any issues feel free to ask

Server Owners

• It is recommended to reset with a fresh map to take advantage of all the new features, however a reset is not required. TMs 100-177 and HMs will be removed from your world however and it will prompt you to make a backup first on first boot, you can confirm with /fml confirm in console
• If you have external jsons enabled, you should regenerate the entire structures folder, the entire spawning folder, the entire NPC’s folder, the entire drops folder, breeding conditions, and the BetterSpawnerConfig.json located in /config/pixelmon
• While yes, you can edit Pokemon and Moves via jsons now, it’s recommended to keep them disabled if you do not plan to make edits. When we modify moves or Pokemon to fix bugs, you will need to manually check and apply changes on each update with external Pokemon and Move jsons enabled
• All public sidemods have been ported and we’re working on adding them to the downloads page. They’re currently all posted in our Server Owners Discord which you can grab the invite link from pins in #servers on our discord
• All servers currently in our Servers Owner Discord have obtained the BETA for 3.0 a month ago to prepare with however they’re planning to go about, so most servers should already be ready for 3.0 today
• It’s safe to remove DIM5 (old ultra space world), as that has been completely removed and disconnected from code
• For new Ultra Space, it’s recommended to disable Fire Spread with /gamerule doFireTick false, and to disable leaf-decay in Sponge global.conf
• Update Forge to 2847 and Sponge to the latest recommended build

Player Installation

• If you’re using the Minecraft Launcher and have edited any settings in the pixelmon.hocon setting, it’s recommended to delete the hocon to avoid any potential issues. Also, if you have any sidemods, make sure to either delete them or update them (such as OptiFine, PixelExtras, PokeRadar, etc). Also, update to Forge 2847.
• If you wish to disable Biomes O Plenty from auto downloading from CurseForge, you can add “skipbop.txt” to your mods folder
• If you’re using the Technic Launcher, no action should be needed as we’ll force an override of any necessary changes. Although if you have added any extra sidemods manually, you may need to update or remove them

Loot Tables

• As mentioned above, all naturally spawning chests now spawn a few Pixelmon items as well as vanilla items
• Loot Table drop information can be found here: https://wiki.pixelmongenerations.com/index.php?title=Loot_Tables

  • NOTICE: There’s a lot of confusion on the web on how Mints work. Here’s how they work:
  • Mints change only the stats of the Pokemon you used a Mint on
  • After using a Mint, the nature of your Pokemon will still appear as the old nature. Again, it only changes the stats effected. It does not actually change the whole nature, just the stats
  • IE If your Pokemon is Adamant it will have +Attack, -Special Attack. If you use a Timid Mint, it will change the stats to +Speed, -Attack. However… Your Pokemon’s nature will still display as Adamant
  • Mints have no effect on Breeding and other elements of the game that calculate Natures, as Mints don’t change the nature, just the stats
  • Mints are obtainable through PokeLoots

  • This does not effect normal shinies
  • This does not effect Shiny Particles (ie ghost particles, krabby particles, etc)
  • This does not effect custom Shiny Particles (given via resource pack or custom to a specific server)
  • This ONLY effects Ultra Shinies caught previously, as their value has been degraded significantly
  • New Ultra Shinies caught on 2.9.2 and thereafter are safe
