Cobblemon Pickup
by tmetcalfe89
Cobblemon Pickup gives Pokémon with the Pickup ability a chance to find items after a won battle, and Honey Gather adds a Honey Bottle chance.
What it does
After a party wins a battle, a Pokémon holding the Pickup ability can turn up an item from a loot table tied to the ability. The default table is based on the Pickup chance list for Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Colosseum, with each item offered at a 10% chance. The loot table can be changed, so the possible items are set by the server owner. The Honey Gather ability works the same way, with a 10% default chance of a Minecraft Honey Bottle, and the item goes into a held slot of the party member.
A party member that already holds an item will not trigger the effect. Logging can be turned on in the config to see when a drop happens, and the debug setting is off by default. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. It needs Cobblemon and Fabric Language Kotlin, and the files target Minecraft 1.20.1 on Fabric. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

What the author says
A clean and simple Cobblemon side mod that adds the out-of-battle effect for the Pickup ability from the main games, then goes a little overboard with customization potential.
