PixelmonLevelcustom

by katz12432

PixelmonLevelcustom removes the default Pixelmon level cap, so Pokémon can keep leveling past the usual limit on a Forge 1.20.1 world.

What it does

Standard Pixelmon stops Pokémon at a fixed level ceiling. This mod takes that ceiling away, letting a Pokémon keep gaining levels for as long as the player keeps training it. Players who want a long progression run, or who reach the cap and feel stuck, can continue without editing config files by hand. Experience is still earned through the normal Pixelmon battles and training, so the rest of the gameplay stays as it is.

The mod is built for Forge and targets Minecraft 1.20.1 only. Because it changes how levels work, it has to run on both the client and the server. A server owner installs it on the server, and each player joining that server needs the mod too. Installation is a single file added to the mods folder, with no separate setup step. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.

Key features

  1. No level ceiling

    Pokémon are no longer held at the default maximum level, so growth continues past the standard limit.

  2. Progression stays intact

    Experience still comes from battles and training, so the core Pixelmon progression loop is unchanged.

  3. Lightweight setup

    The mod is a single file that loads with the world, with no extra configuration needed to start leveling beyond the cap.

  4. Works alongside Pixelmon

    The level change is limited to the cap itself, so other Pixelmon systems keep working as normal.

Who it’s for: Players and server owners on Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge who want Pixelmon Pokémon to keep gaining levels after the standard cap.

How it compares

Full comparison

Pixelmon Factory is also a Forge 1.20.1 mod with client and server environment, and it is released under the MIT License but is not open source. NowYouCanFishAgain-Pixelmon targets 1.20.2 instead, and it can run on the client or server as an optional addition and is open source under the MIT License. Both differ from PixelmonLevelcustom in purpose, since they do not remove the level cap.
