PokéTransfer
by peagirl.
PokéTransfer lets players move Pokémon from one world to another, with a Fabric server mod that works alongside Cobblemon.
What it does
The mod lets a player deposit Pokémon from one world and withdraw them in another, so an old partner can join a new adventure without cheating. Each transferred Pokémon keeps its held items, EVs, IVs and nickname, and a copy is saved with the chosen party slot assigned a numerical ID.
A Pokémon deposited once is tagged as transferred, and that flag travels with it. Re-deposits stay blocked even after it is withdrawn somewhere else, and a stored Pokémon can be withdrawn only once per world. Copying the config file over new instances lets server owners carry the same settings into a fresh world.
PokéTransfer is a server-side component, and only the server needs it installed. Cobblemon is required, and the mod is published for Fabric alone, for 1.21.1. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Cross-world transfer
Pokémon move between separate worlds, so a player can continue a team started elsewhere.
One-time deposit
Each Pokémon can be deposited once, and a transferred Pokémon cannot be deposited again in any world.
World-bound withdrawal
Each stored Pokémon may be taken out one time in any given world, which keeps copies from multiplying across saves.
Full data copy
Held items, EVs, IVs and nicknames are copied over unchanged when a Pokémon is deposited.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Server owners who run Cobblemon worlds and players who want their Pokémon to travel between them.
How it compares
Cobblemon Max Level Catch Cap is a Fabric server-side mod for 1.21 – 1.21.11, with all rights reserved and not open source, so it covers a different part of the experience. Cobblemon Outline is a Fabric client-required mod for 1.21.1 under the Apache License 2.0, and it needs the client side rather than the server. Cobblemon Home is a Fabric and NeoForge mod for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 that runs on both client and server.
