Ball Enhancer
by CallMeLoxy
Ball Enhancer, a Cobblemon addon for Fabric, adds stronger and weaker versions of several Poké Balls to the catch process.
What it does
Enhanced versions of four standard capture items join the game as separate entries. Each one comes in a plus variant with a steady catch-rate bonus, which uses one ball per throw, and a minus variant that carries a penalty. Plus balls give a stronger bonus and consume three balls per throw, and a successful capture refunds one of them after a configured delay. Penalty balls throw one visible ball but consume three items in total, and the bonuses and penalties can be tuned in the configuration.
The addon is built on Cobblemon and needs it along with Fabric API, both installed on the client and the server. Its visuals match Cobblemon's look, with flat inventory icons and 3D models shown in hand and on the ground. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Ball Enhancer is released under the All rights reserved license and is not open source. Files exist for Fabric on Minecraft 1.21.1 only, with 1.0.2 as the latest build, published on 2026-06-22.
Key features
Enhanced capture variants
Plus and minus versions of four capture items change the catch-rate bonus applied during a throw.
Stable plus balls
Plus balls give a steady catch bonus and use one ball per throw, which suits trainers who want predictable outcomes.
Refunded capture balls
Plus balls that succeed are refunded after a configured delay, so the cost of a stronger throw is partly returned.
Penalty throws
Minus balls throw a single visible ball but consume three items in total, applying a configurable penalty.
Cobblemon-style models
Flat inventory icons and 3D models in hand and on the ground follow the visual style of Cobblemon.
