About this Mod
Cobblemon: Nuzlocke
This is a server-side Nuzlocke challenge mod for Cobblemon on Minecraft 1.21.1. It raises the stakes of your adventure by adding true consequences to battles. Perfect for servers looking to spice up their gameplay!
How It Works
The rules are simple but strict:
- When you join, your Nuzlocke run starts.
- If a Pokémon faints—whether in a gym battle or against a wild encounter—it is marked as dead.
- By default, fallen Cobblémon are automatically released from your party.
- Healing dead Pokémon is blocked to ensure the rules are followed.
- You can check your history of fallen friends anytime using the graveyard command.
