ExtraPixelmon
by RainApricot
ExtraPixelmon is a NeoForge add-on for players who want Pokémon content beyond the base game, filling in elements the original mod never included.
What it does
ExtraPixelmon adds elements that did not exist in the original game. Abilities, moves and Pokémon that the base mod lacked are added here, and some acquisition methods arrived as later additions rather than at launch. The additions are meant for players who want more to collect and battle with.
Summoning the extra Pokémon requires strings, so players need to gather those items before they can call the additional creatures. The mod runs on NeoForge only, with builds for 1.21.1 – 1.21.8. Its latest file is for 1.21.1 and dates from 2025-12-26, and it is released under a custom license, not open source.
Because the mod uses a custom license, redistribution terms follow the author's own text rather than a standard open license. The first release was published on 2025-07-27, and the most recent update landed on 2025-12-26.
Key features
Additional Pokémon

New abilities and moves
Abilities and moves that were absent from the original game are added, widening the options in battle.
Summoning with strings
Extra Pokémon are called using strings, which players must obtain before summoning.
Later acquisition methods
Ways to obtain Pokémon were added after release, so some species are reached by methods the base game does not offer.

If you need to summon these additional Pokémon, you can do so using these strings. The acquisition methods will be added later.
