Cobblemon Pokerus

by tmetcalfe89

Cobblemon Pokerus lets a Pokémon catch an infection during battle, which spreads to teammates and is cured over time while boosting its EV gains.

FabricNeoForgeServer-side onlyMIT License1.21.1

What it does

Infection happens at random when a party Pokémon battles a wild Pokémon. An infected Pokémon in the party can pass the infection to others on the team, and the infection clears on its own after a set number of in-game days of battling. Infected Pokémon still gain boosted EVs after the cure, but they can no longer spread it.

The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing it. It is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 1.21.1 only. It depends on Cobblemon and Cobblemon Tim Core, both required next to it. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Random infection

    A party Pokémon can contract Pokérus at random after a battle with a wild Pokémon.

  2. Spread across the party

    An infected Pokémon can pass the infection to other Pokémon on the same team during later battles.

  3. Timed cure

    The infection wears off after a set number of in-game days of battling, leaving the Pokémon with a mark in its list.

  4. Boosted EV gains

    Infected Pokémon earn more EVs from defeated battle opponents, such as two Speed EVs where one is normally granted.
