Partner Pokémon

by JediTheHedgehog

Partner Pokémon is a Cobblemon data pack that turns one chosen Pokémon per species into a Partner with boosted stats and, for some species, extra Abilities.

FabricForgeNeoForgeServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

The data pack gives Partner status to a set of Pokémon that are otherwise normal. A Partner has altered stats, which increase so that battles are easier, and the data pack also raises the base stat totals of some Mega Evolutions. Partner status is reached by a Pokémon that has grown to maximum friendship, and aspect Pokémon receive their aspect without needing a use command. Partner data is included for 504 of the 1,025 official Pokémon, along with a handful of additional entries.

Some Partners gain Abilities their species does not have normally. Partner Jolteon gains Steadfast, Partner Flareon gains Sheer Force, Partner Vaporeon gains Rain Dish, Partner Espeon gains Telepathy in place of Magic Guard, and Partner Umbreon gains Unnerve. Partner Umbreon's Hidden Ability is changed from Inner Focus to Intimidate. The pokeedit command with partner=true can be used to choose whether a Pokémon accesses the boosted stats.

The mod draws its design from the Partner mechanic of Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. It requires Cobblemon and Cobblemon: Mega Showdown, and is published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 as data pack files for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.

Questions

Does Partner Pokémon require Cobblemon?

Yes. Cobblemon and Cobblemon: Mega Showdown are required dependencies and must be installed alongside the data pack.

Does a server need the data pack for players to use Partners?

The server must run it, while players may leave it out. Players may install the mod on the client, but it is not needed to join.

Can Partner Pokémon be used with Cobblemon Transporter?

The author advises against placing Partner Pokémon in Cobblemon Transporter, since compatibility is not supported.
