Pokemon Workers Guide

CobbleWorkers is a utility mod for Cobblemon that allows certain Pokémon to automatically perform useful tasks in your Minecraft world. Instead of just battling, your Pokémon can now act as helpers for farming, gathering, generating resources, and more.

This makes your Pokémon team not only essential for combat but also a vital part of your base automation.


⚙️ How It Works

  • Place your Pokémon in the world as a CobbleWorker.

  • Each Pokémon has a job role depending on its typing or species.

  • Workers will automatically perform their job in a radius around them (configurable in cobbleworkers.json).

  • Some roles require cooldowns (e.g., generating water/lava).


🌱 Default vs Custom Config

By default, almost every role was handled by Pikachu, with just a few exceptions (Combee for honey, Chansey for healing, etc.).

In this pack, we use a customized config where different Pokémon fulfill jobs more logically according to their type and lore. Pikachu is still included in important roles (Honey collecting + Healing), but other Pokémon now have unique utility.

  • Place multiple workers to specialize tasks and improve efficiency.

  • Healing Pokémon are best placed in communal areas like bases or towns.
