What it does

Pokeball is a storage and game mechanics mod for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. A datapack catches some mobs with Pokeballs, and the first step is crafting a Pokeball Shell at a crafting table. The mod is server required and client optional, so the server must run it while players may leave it out. Files are published across 20 release versions, 1.20 – 26.3, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, which means the mod is not open source.

Players sitting in a mob's view cannot catch that mob. Nether Star and Netherite Ingot can be added through a smithing table. Pokeball is also available as a data pack for server platforms.

Key features

  1. Datapack catching

    Some mobs can be caught with Pokeballs through a datapack, so the catching rules are defined in data.

  2. Q key throw

    The Q key throws a Pokeball by default, and the binding can be changed in the game controls.

  3. Shell crafting

    A Pokeball Shell is crafted at a crafting table, and Nether Star and Netherite Ingot can be added at a smithing table.

Questions

Does Pokeball have to be installed on the client?

No. The server is required, and the client is optional, so players can join a server that runs it without installing the mod.

What the author says

Use the Q key (default) to throw a Pokeball. Throwing a Pokeball is 2 times stronger than throwing a normal item. After landing, the pokeball opens and tries to catch the mob. Then it closes and automatically tries to return to the player.
