PokePinks - Cobblemon
by CannonCorp
PokePinks is a Fabric server-side mod for Cobblemon that adds winner-takes-all one-versus-one stake battles, where the winner keeps the other trainer's Pokemon.
What it does
A stake battle pits two trainers, each with one Pokemon, in a single battle. Both players lock in a wager before anything begins: the Pokemon they stake and the held item it carries. A double-reveal step shows both stakes in full to both players, and once both confirm, each Pokemon moves into escrow and is removed from its owner's party and storage until the battle ends. The winner keeps both Pokemon, held items included, and the loser keeps the story.
Stakes are matched by level. The default requires an exact match, and the tolerance can be changed in the config so a rookie is not pushed into a fight against a far stronger trainer. Battle parties are restricted to exactly one Pokemon, and switching items is limited by enforced design rules. A disconnect counts as a strike: both stakes are refunded, the player who left takes a strike on record, and the player and staff are notified. Owners decide what punishment follows; the mod does not impose one. Every battle is written to a permanent audit log with full Pokemon data, which staff can browse in a GUI console inside the game.
Key features

Both stakes are shown in full to both players, and nothing locks until each side confirms.

Disconnect strikes
A player who disconnects mid-battle gets a strike on record, and both stakes are refunded.
Permanent audit log
