About this Mod
Compatibility: Works on both client and server without causing incompatibilities or performance issues.
Mod Operation
Installed on the Client and Server
All colors work correctly, allowing you to identify any Pokémon type as listed above.
Installed on the Client Only
The yellow outline (Shiny Pokémon) and white outline (Wild Pokémon) work normally.
Other types (your Pokémon, other players' Pokémon, Mythical, Legendary, and Ultra Beast) will have a white outline as if they were wild Pokémon, except for Shiny Pokémon, which retains the yellow outline.
To identify all categories with their specific colors, the mod must also be present on the server.
This mod adds colored outlines around Pokémon in the world, allowing you to easily identify different types of Pokémon and their properties when targeting them.
Outline Cores
White: Wild Pokémon
Green: Your own Pokémon
Red: Other players' Pokémon
Yellow: Shiny Pokémon
Pink: Mystical Pokémon
Purple: Legendary Pokémon
Cyan: Ultra Beast
Notes
The outline appears only on Pokémon the player is targeting and within battle range.
The system is entirely visual and does not interfere with battle mechanics or Pokémon behavior.
For the best experience and color compatibility, install the mod on both the client and server.
Customization
This mod allows you to customize the outline colors for each Pokémon type by editing a simple JSON file.
You can change the outline color for your Pokémon (or any other type) by modifying the values in the JSON file — no need to restart the server, just use the reload command!
Reload Command
Use /cobblemonoutline reload to instantly reload the color configuration from the JSON file.
This command allows you to update outline colors on the fly, both on the server and client (if supported).
Configuration File Example
By default, the color configuration file looks like this:
}
"colorOwner": [0, 255, 80, 255],
"colorShiny": [255, 255, 0, 255],
"colorLegendary": [191, 64, 255, 255],
"colorMythical": [255, 110, 180, 255],
"colorUltraBeast": [0, 180, 255, 255],
"colorOwnedByOther": [255, 0, 0, 255],
"colorDefault": [255, 255, 255, 255]
}
Each value is in the ARGB format: [Alpha, Red, Green, Blue].
You can freely change these values to customize the outline color for each Pokémon type to your preference.
How to Use
Edit the JSON file to set your preferred colors for each Pokémon type.
Run /cobblemonoutline reload in-game or on your server console to apply the new colors immediately.
Enjoy your personalized Pokémon outlines!
