PokePaintings (Mod Version)
With PokePaintings installed, players can hang Pokémon artwork as paintings in their builds, using a Fabric mod that ships 15 new paintings for 1.21.1.
What it does
PokePaintings adds a collection of Pokémon paintings that players can place as decorations. The paintings come from a datapack and resource pack combination, with Pokémon as the main subject of each piece. Most backgrounds are a plain single color, while the updated paintings include a slight textured background. The included Pokémon are Castform in sunny, rainy and snowy forms, along with Mudkip, Zangoose and several others credited in the author notes.
The mod is aimed at builders who want Pokémon-themed rooms and displays, and at server owners running a Perfect Cobblemon Pokémon themed server. Fabric API is required, and the mod runs on client and server. Files are published for 1.21.1 only, and the license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Pokémon painting collection
Fifteen new paintings place Pokémon in the foreground for display in builds.
Castform weather forms
Castform appears in sunny, rainy and snowy forms, so one subject can be shown in three looks.
Plain and textured backgrounds
Most paintings use a flat single-color background, while the updated set adds a slight texture.
Datapack and resource pack setup
The paintings are split across a datapack and a resource pack, with the textures supplied by the resource pack.

Use cases
Themed server builds
Server owners running a Pokémon themed server can place the paintings in hubs, shops and player homes.
Pokémon rooms
Players decorating a room around a favorite Pokémon can use the collection as wall art.
Who it’s for: Players who build Pokémon-themed bases and server owners who want matching decoration. The mod is client and server, so both sides need it for the paintings to appear.
How it compares
Panda Paintings is a Fabric mod for 1.21.8 with an MIT License, and it is not open source. Odd Paintings covers 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 under All rights reserved. Cobblemon Minimons covers 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and is also All rights reserved, so the version range is wider than PokePaintings for 1.21.1.
