Cobblemon: ShadowedHearts
by JayemCeekay
With Cobblemon: ShadowedHearts installed, Shadow Pokémon from the GameCube-era games gain a purification path, Heart Gauge mechanics and Shadow Moves on top of the modern Cobblemon mod.
What it does
ShadowedHearts is a side mod for Cobblemon that brings the Shadow Pokémon of Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD into the game. Shadow Pokémon carry Shadow Moves, and their access to those moves stays closed until the Pokémon is purified. A Heart Gauge tracks each Shadow Pokémon's progress, with Hyper Mode and Reverse Mode affecting how the gauge behaves during battle. A Call button, Snag Machines and Relic Shrines add ways to obtain and interact with them, and a Purification PC with Flow Tempo mechanics handles the purification process itself. Snag Machines are limited to player-versus-environment battles.
Many systems follow the original GameCube implementations closely, and the mod builds on the modern Cobblemon base while keeping the feel of those games. Most behavior can be changed through configuration, in singleplayer worlds and on multiplayer servers alike. The mod requires Architectury API, Cobblemon, Forge Config API Port and Special Model Loader. Accessories, Radical Cobblemon Trainers and SimpleTMs: TMs and TRs for Cobblemon are optional. It is published for Fabric and NeoForge on 1.21.1 only, and it is not open source, since it is licensed as All rights reserved.
