[0.18.0-beta] - 2026-04-11

Added:

• #402 New format=<format> argument for the get progress graph command. Possible values are:
• png: Generate an image file, saved on the client
• svg: Generate a vector graphic file, saved on the client
• uml: Generate a PlantUML graph, can be viewed online, old behaviour, default
• #401 Series property hideTrainerIdentities: Determines if trainer names/is are hidden in the progress graph (see #400) unless they are required or have been beaten before
• #400 The trainer card now offers the option to view the series progress graph ingame as vector graphic
• Series progress graph visualization is powered by JGraphT (PlantUML graphs can still be generated, see also #402)
• #399 Trainer mob property requiredSeries: Similar to requiredDefeats allows to define series that a player has to complete before a trainer can be challenged (shoutout to Kile for implementing this)
• #398 Trainer mobs now support TBCS win commands
• An overview of the win command and selector syntax can be found in the TBCS mod description
• The TBCS mod needs to be installed on the server side for win commands to function (the mod is optional for clients)
• The Pack Builder tool has been updated with form fields for the new "Win Commands" property (see "Mobs")

Changed:

• #397 Adjusted get progress graph command to generate graphs in dedicated threads, which reduces overall load on the server during the process
• #396 Some labels in the trainer card will now scale down automatically (to ensure they better fit for different languages)
• #395 Update min required version of rctapi to 0.15.0-beta

Fixed:

• #390 Various performance issues related to level cap and trainer level calculations

Removed:

• #389 Command flags include_defeated, include_optionals and include_singles from player get progress graph (use defeated/optionals/singles=<boolean> instead)

[0.17.7-beta] - 2026-03-19

Added:

• #388 Debug config option logRepelRods: Enables logging for additional information about trainer repel rods

Changed:

• #387 Reworked Trainer Repel Rod to a block entity
• Repel rod positions are no longer persisted independently (in data/rctmod.spawn.chunks.repel.map.dat)
• The block entity now registers itself once it receives its first tick (i.e. its chunk is loaded)
• This change possibly fixes previously reported issues of repel rods randomly stopping to work and should overall be a more stable solution (while the actual bug was never confirmed/reproduced this is still fair to assume due to the complete rework)
• Unfortunately existing repel rods will have to be replaced (or pulsed with redstone) to get registered as block entities
• #386 Trainer repel rod now connects to redstone dust

Fixed:

• #385 NPE when attempting to access minecraft instance in datagen task
• #384 Possibility for trainers to spawn outside a players simulation distance (causing chunks to load and performance issues)

Changelog

[0.17.5-beta] - 2026-01-27

Added:

• #382 Portuguese (Brazil) language support (big thanks to PrincessStellar!). Note: The level cap entry in the trainer card may have some letters overlap due to space restriction, this will be fixed with an upcoming update.

Changed:

• #381 The command rctmod player get progress graph now accepts the flags defeated=<boolean>, optionals=<boolean> and singles=<boolean> with defeated and optionals defaulting to true while singles defaults to false (activating this flag will let the graph hit the limits of PlantUML but it may have its uses in the future)
• #380 The commands rctmod trainer summon and summon_persistent now optionally accept an nbt tag as last argument (like vanilla summon)
• #379 The properties requiredDefeats and requiredSeries of trainer mobs and series respectively are now more lenient towards the format of data they accept (<example input> => <how it will be interpreted>):
• a. single values: "example" => [["example"]]
• b. array of single values: ["example1", "example2"] => [["example1"], ["example2"]]
• c. array of arrays with values: [["example1", "example2"], "example3"] => [["example1", "example2"], ["example3"]]
• #378 Trainer Spawner block now has an additional block state inverted: Inverts how the block reacts to redstone (i.e. it will be boosted if not powered). The value is set to false by default, use setblock to create a spawner with custom block states (e.g. rctmod:trainer_spawner[inverted=true]).

Fixed:

• #377 Json parser for data packs crashing the game/server when loading invalid json (errors are now logged but otherwise ignored)
• #376 NPE when running datagen with this mod in a dev environment (probably)
• #375 Outdated format of internal data pack
• #374 Relative level cap of trainer mobs and series getting capped between [1, 100] instead of [-100, 100]

Deprecated:

• #373 Command flags include_defeated, include_optionals and include_singles (these will for now attempt to set the corresponding new flag to true but with a lower priority, see also #381). They are scheduled to be removed completely with 0.18.0-beta.

• #361 Trainers not following players that are holding a trainer card if they could battle against them (they will stop following if directly being looked at to still allow them to force battles)
• #360 Trainers staring at players that cannot battle against them

Removed:

• #359 Log message when trainer id of an entitiy changes

• #276 Improved language support
• The title and description of series, the name of trainer types as well as dialogs now alternatively accept a json object with a translatable and/or literal field as value (setting directly a string is equivalent to defining a object with a literal field having that string). Support for the name of trainers will be added at a later point in time
• Updated/Added en_us language keys for most content from this mod
• #275 New signatureItem property for trainers: Formerly known as trainerSpawnerItems these are now configured per trainer mob (data pack object), yet they still serve the same purpose (items to configure a Trainer Spawner).

• Trainers that occupy a trainer spawner have a slight chance to switch to another non-occupied trainer spawner - with the correct signature item - in their vicinity (they did this already but somewhat uncontrolled, this should be fixed now)
• #273 Trainer cooldowns and defeat count restrictions: Trainers can now be battled indefinetely until beaten but their cooldowns will grow larger when losing frequently in a short time span against them
• #272 Trainer mobs (data pack object) maxTrainerWins and maxTrainerDefeats may now accept negative values to represent infinity (updated all trainers from this mod accordingly)

Fixed:

• #271 Some issues with the rendering of Trainer Spawner items when multiple spawners are in view
• #270 Trainer Association GUI not opening with the 'Infinite Trading' mod installed (and potentially some other issues related to that)
• #269 Trainer battles getting softlocked at the start if the trainer happened to became attached to a different entity in an unloaded chunk

Changed:

• #267 Updated min dependency of rctapi to 0.10.15-beta

Changed:

• #264 Empty series id in set series command: ... -> empty
• #263 Reworked how player battle statistics are stored
• Important: Migrating persistent data can always be a little bit scary, the automatic migration process is logged and ensures that old data will only be removed after the new data was saved. Regardless creating a backup of the data directory can be an additional safety measure
• Defeat statistics are now batched in groups per file (instead of one file per trainer)
• This significantly improves loading times (especially for servers with many players and overall greater amounts of defeats against trainers)
• #262 Trainer Card UI will now open while holding another item in the off hand - if the Trainer Card is in the off hand the UI will only open if the item in the main hand is not in use - blocking with a shield will always prevent the UI from opening

Fixed:

• #261 Clients sometimes being unable to join servers - invalid stream header (note: it was difficult to reliably reproduce this issue but I did not run it anymore in any of my tests after this fix, thanks to AGGStudios for helping out testing this)
• #260 Level cap sometimes not updating to 100 in the Trainer Card (without relog) after series completion
• #259 Series completion message not shown to players that have relogged once after the latest server (re)start

• #230 Reworked trainer types: These are now data pack objects with common types being predefined by this mod (e.g. "leader" or "rival")
• #229 Some advancement ids to better distinguish from the new advancements of the other series
• defeat_champion -> defeat_champion_terry
• defeat_elite_four -> defeat_elite_four_kanto
• #228 Trainer Card: Minor cosmetic adjustments (e.g. better handling of long trainer names)
• #227 Trainer Spawner block can now be forced to spawn their trainer by powering it with redstone (ignoring any level differences or other conditions to nearby players, this may only fail if a trainer with the same identity already exists in the world or the global spawn cap is full)
• #226 Updated loot table rates, added a few more items and removed loot tables containing modded items (e.g. simpletms or pkgbadges)

Fixed:

• #225 Some performance improvements to the trainer card
• #224 Some random synchronization issues when reloading data packs, changing configs and/or switching between multi- and singleplayer worlds
• #223 Trainer npcs being incapable of rendering armor (thanks Renari)
• #222 Trainers being able to be persisted with methods other than summon_pesistent or by setting their Persistent tag to 1 (e.g. by placing them in a boat)

Changelog

Important: The level_cap is not a value anymore that can be set per player but is rather derived from the current state of progress of that player. Because of the changes to the progression it is possible that when updating from an older version the level caps of players will be different (most likely lower)! Apart from that the progress of players should adapt to the changes but as a general advice always make backups before updating mods.

[0.13.16-beta] - 2025-01-30

Changed:

Fixed:

• #220 Scrambled names in trainer card only being 3 characters long
• #219 Trainers responding with "I'm done" instead of complaining about players cayrrying pokemon above their level cap (if allowOverleveling was enabled)

[0.13.6-beta] - 2025-01-06

Added:

• #189 AFK protection: Trainers will eventually despawn when nearby players do not move at all for a certain amount of time (~ 12 minutes). Note: This is a bit experimental, let me know if you have trainers unexpectedly disappear in front of your eyes.
• #188 Server config globalSpawnChanceMinimum: Minimum spawn chance for trainers based of how many trainers already spawned for a player
• #187 Server config spawnIntervalTicksMaximum: Maximum spawn interval for trainers based of how many trainers already spawned for a player

Changed:

• #186 Default value of globalSpawnChance from 1 to 0.85
• #185 Default value of maxTrainersPerPlayer from 8 to 12
• #184 Default value of maxTrainersTotal from 24 to 60
• #183 Default value of spawnIntervalTicks from 600 to 120
• #182 Some adjustments to trainer spawning behaviour, to sum it up: Trainers now spawn much more frequent for players (see #183) that have no or only a few trainers around them, trainer encounters should be more common while exploring, yet on the other hand reaching higher numbers of trainers will gradually take more and more time when sticking to the same location (see #187 and #188). Reminder: Defeating trainers will free up a players spawn cap!
• #181 The increase of the spawn weight for key trainers is now based of how close pokemon of players are to that trainers required level cap rather than the players current level cap (especially helpful if initialLevelCap is set to 100)
• #180 Trainer Spawner Block now ignores the globalSpawnChance and trainers spawned by that block will not count towards a players spawn cap anymore (i.e. can still spawn even if a player has filled up their maxTrainerPerPlayer)

Fixed:

• #179 Several issues with npc behavior (as well as some adjustemts)
• fixed trainers tracking towards the same location in certain situations
• trainers are now more likely to wander towards an (imaginary) goal (if they cannot find a path they will choose a new random goal)
• #178 Trainer Card ticking for non local players on clients (potential source of trouble and incompatibility with other mods, e.g. Trinkets)

• HomePos block positon tag for trainer npcs: Trainers will stay/move to the defined position, trainers spawned from a Trainer Spawner block will have that block set as their home position (this is also the case for any trainers nearby a matching Trainer Spawner block)

• Progression: Added more required trainer fights, e.g. Rocket Admin Archer after Brock and all the rival fights
• ServerConfig: Renamed bonusLevelCap -> additiveLevelCapRequirement (works slightly different but effectively serves the same purpose)
• Some pokemon that are originally supposed to mega evolve (i.e. holding key stones) now hold other competetive held items as replacement (until mega evolutions are supported)
• Some trainers might carry items that they may use in battles (e.g. potions)
• Trainer Card GUI: Trainers that can be spawned with a trainer spawner will show the item(s) required to do so on the 'Spawning' info page
• Trainer defeat counts are now per player, this means different players can now fight the same trainer in a row (trainers will still tend to walk away if defeated/exhausted once)
• Trainers now follow players holding a Trainer Card in their main- or off hand
• Update to Cobblemon 1.6, Minecraft 1.21.1, Fabric/Neoforge
• RIVAL names are now colored gold

Fixed

• Some oversights in npc ai behaviour (e.g. player tracking not working properly)
• Some pokemon missing held items
• Some pokemon not having the correct regional form
• Trainer Card now glows and renders the arrow regardless if the trainer spawned in naturally or was summoned in any other way
• Trainer pokemon sometimes dropping loot, missing trainer pokemon send out and retrieve animations, and probably some other stuff

Removed

• Command: player set level_cap (see player set progress for alternative)
• ServerConfig: maxOverLevelCap (too much of a corner case and barely useful, see allowOverLeveling and additiveLevelCapRequirement for alternatives)
• Trainer type BOSS (former bosses are now either of type RIVAL or TEAM_ROCKET)

Changelog

Important: The level_cap is not a value anymore that can be set per player but is rather derived from the current state of progress of that player. Because of the changes to the progression it is possible that when updating from an older version the level caps of players will be different (most likely lower)! Apart from that the progress of players should adapt to the changes but as a general advice always make backups before updating mods.

• Trainer (type) dependent battle rules: Currently allows to set item usage restrictions, leaders and bosses will by default not allow more than 2 item uses
• Trainer Spawner (craftable) block: Can be attuned to spawn different trainers whenever a player is nearby (and the trainer is not already elsewhere), trainers will not move while standing on this block, what items will spawn what trainers can be configured (check out the documentation for more information)
• HomePos block positon tag for trainer npcs: Trainers will stay/move to the defined position, trainers spawned from a Trainer Spawner block will have that block set as their home position (this is also the case for any trainers nearby a matching Trainer Spawner block)

Different versions of the same trainer will have the same body but will most likely wear different outfits

Changed

• Drastically increased spawn chances for undefeated trainers (with emphasized names) and lowered the bonus spawn chance of key trainers (e.g. leaders) gained by players reaching their level cap
• Increased trainer health from 20 to 30
• Loot table defeat_count condition now supports a comparator field (EQUAL, SMALLER, GREATER or MODULO)
• Overhauled loot tables: Adjusted drop chances and item pools (see this spreadsheet for more info)

• Trainer Card GUI: Click on discovered trainers in the list to show more information (e.g. biomes the trainer spawns in)
• Trainers now slowly regenerate health (about twice as fast as horses)

Fixed

• Advancement defeat count trigger counting all instead of distinct defeats per trainer type

[0.11.0-alpha] - 2024-08-07

Changed

• Adjustments to trainer behavior (AI): Only undefeated key trainers (e.g. leaders) have a high chance to seek out players that can fight them (small chance for others), also trainers are now much stronger drawn towards villages in general and will most of the time mind own businesse (rather than stalking the player)
• Server Config: Increasd default maxTrainersPerPlayer from 4 to 8 and maxTrainersTotal from 20 to 24 (since trainers should be more spread out due to the changes in they behaviour)
• Trainers can now spawn on (layered) snow blocks
• Update to CobblemonTrainers 0.1.1.11 (dropped support for earlier versions so make sure to update both!)

Fixed

• Potential desync of player states when switching between worlds (single-/multiplayer) in the same play session

Due to the changes in the gameplay progression aswell as to some advancements in 0.10.0 it is likely that there will be indescrepencies with the current state of players that are past Erika from earlier versions.

• Removed previously given buff for some trainers that do not account for the progression anymore

• Defeat count loot condition for data packs (e.g. have trainers drop special loot on first defeat)

• Removed redundant "this" property of defeat count condition for achievements
• Reworked spawner system: Trainers now despawn when far away/beeing unloaded (similar to hostile mobs)

[0.8.2-alpha] - 2024-05-31

Added

• Trainer types RIVAL and TRAINER

Changed

• Trainers that cannot battle anymore now don't count towards a players spawn cap (they still count towards the global spawn cap)

Fixed

• "Wrong way to battle" advancement beeing granted for any npc

• Removed battle restrictions for some trainers
• Spawn rates increased for key trainers not beaten by players (the closer a player gets to the level cap the higher the chance to spawn)
• Trainer id system (now with proper unique ids). Saved data from previous versions will automatically migrate to the new system. Important notes for migration: Any trainers or trainer related data that has been modified with a data- or resource pack must be migrated manually (groups stay the same) by changing the file names to the new ids. Any (command block) commands that refer to trainers by their old ids must be migrated manually by changing the commands to use the new ids. Any trainer npcs from a previous version will have an invalid id, you can let them either despawn, get rid of them otherwise or change the TrainerId tag manually using the data command. A list of all id changes can be found in the documentation.

Fixed

• Many missing team members with different forms (e.g. 'alola')
• Potential log spam for mobs with an invalid trainer id
• Some missing ivs/evs, moves, abilities, etc. for most of the trainers

[0.9.2-alpha] - 2024-06-17

Changed

• Removed battle count restriction (max wins/losses) for persistent trainers

[0.9.1-alpha] - 2024-06-16

• Defeat count loot condition for data packs (e.g. have trainers drop special loot on first defeat)
• Persistent tag for trainers (0/false by default). Persistent trainers will never despawn and do not count towards the spawn caps. Care must be taken when enabling this tag for trainers since other trainers will not spawn as long as another trainer with the same name exists.

Changed

• Reformatted (spawner) debugging output
• Removed redundant "this" property of defeat count condition for achievements
• Reworked spawner system: Trainers now despawn when far away/beeing unloaded (similar to hostile mobs)

Added

• Server Config logSpawning: Debugging option to log information about trainer (de)spawning (disabled by default)
• Server Config options biomeTagBlackList and biomeTagWhitelist as global options for all trainers (in addition to the tags defined per trainer (group) with data packs)

Fixed

[0.8.3-alpha] - 2024-06-03

Fixed

• Trainers on cooldown not beeing counted towards a palyers spawn cap

[0.8.2-alpha] - 2024-05-31

Added

• Trainer types RIVAL and TRAINER

Changed

• Advancements have been reworked, some have been removed, some have been added, some have changed. Advancements will be granted again if a player repeats an action (e.g. beats a previous Leader again). They can also be granted manually with the vanilla advancement command.
• Decreased minimum despawn distance (now equal to spawning config minHorizontalDistanceToPlayers which is 30 by default)
• Trainers that cannot battle anymore now don't count towards a players spawn cap (they still count towards the global spawn cap)

Fixed

• "Wrong way to battle" advancement beeing granted for any npc
• Advancements not beeing granted

[0.8.1-alpha] - 2024-05-29

Changed

• Reeneblad temporarily replaced switching moves (like uturn)
• Update to Cobblemon 1.5.2 and CobblemonTrainers 1.1.7

[0.8.0-alpha] - 2024-05-29

Added

• 84 new (endgame) trainers, which brings the total number up to 740
• Command: player get defeats <trainerId> [<player>]
• Command: player set defeats <trainerId> [<players>] <value>
• Command: trainer get reward_level_cap <trainerId>
• Command: trainer get type <trainerId>
• Item: Trainer Card (open player stats gui with right click, can be crafted)

Changed

• Beating a champ now grants a level cap of 100
• Buffed weaker versions of key trainers (elite 4/champs)
• Command: Renamed former player get defeats ... to player get type_defeats <type> [<player>]
• Decreased battle cooldown from 2000 to 600 ticks
• Increased spawn cap per player from 3 to 4, decreased spawn interval from 3600 to 2400 ticks and decreased despawn delay from 24000 to 5000 ticks, in short higher spawn rates by default (changed default values will not be applied to existing configs)
• Removed battle restrictions for some trainers
• Spawn rates increased for key trainers not beaten by players (the closer a player gets to the level cap the higher the chance to spawn)
• Trainer id system (now with proper unique ids). Saved data from previous versions will automatically migrate to the new system. Important notes for migration: Any trainers or trainer related data that has been modified with a data- or resource pack must be migrated manually (groups stay the same) by changing the file names to the new ids. Any (command block) commands that refer to trainers by their old ids must be migrated manually by changing the commands to use the new ids. Any trainer npcs from a previous version will have an invalid id, you can let them either despawn, get rid of them otherwise or change the TrainerId tag manually using the data command. A list of all id changes can be found in the documentation.

Fixed

• Many missing team members with different forms (e.g. 'alola')

• Trainers on cooldown not beeing counted towards a palyers spawn cap

[0.8.2-alpha] - 2024-05-31

Added

• Trainer types RIVAL and TRAINER

Changed

• Advancements have been reworked, some have been removed, some have been added, some have changed. Advancements will be granted again if a player repeats an action (e.g. beats a previous Leader again). They can also be granted manually with the vanilla advancement command.
• Decreased minimum despawn distance (now equal to spawning config minHorizontalDistanceToPlayers which is 30 by default)
• Trainers that cannot battle anymore now don't count towards a players spawn cap (they still count towards the global spawn cap)

Fixed

• "Wrong way to battle" advancement beeing granted for any npc
• Advancements not beeing granted

[0.8.1-alpha] - 2024-05-29

Changed

• Reeneblad temporarily replaced switching moves (like uturn)
• Update to Cobblemon 1.5.2 and CobblemonTrainers 1.1.7

[0.8.0-alpha] - 2024-05-29

Added

• 84 new (endgame) trainers, which brings the total number up to 740
• Command: player get defeats <trainerId> [<player>]
• Command: player set defeats <trainerId> [<players>] <value>
• Command: trainer get reward_level_cap <trainerId>
• Command: trainer get type <trainerId>
• Item: Trainer Card (open player stats gui with right click, can be crafted)

Changed

• Beating a champ now grants a level cap of 100
• Buffed weaker versions of key trainers (elite 4/champs)
• Command: Renamed former player get defeats ... to player get type_defeats <type> [<player>]
• Decreased battle cooldown from 2000 to 600 ticks
• Increased spawn cap per player from 3 to 4, decreased spawn interval from 3600 to 2400 ticks and decreased despawn delay from 24000 to 5000 ticks, in short higher spawn rates by default (changed default values will not be applied to existing configs)
• Removed battle restrictions for some trainers
• Spawn rates increased for key trainers not beaten by players (the closer a player gets to the level cap the higher the chance to spawn)
• Trainer id system (now with proper unique ids). Saved data from previous versions will automatically migrate to the new system. Important notes for migration: Any trainers or trainer related data that has been modified with a data- or resource pack must be migrated manually (groups stay the same) by changing the file names to the new ids. Any (command block) commands that refer to trainers by their old ids must be migrated manually by changing the commands to use the new ids. Any trainer npcs from a previous version will have an invalid id, you can let them either despawn, get rid of them otherwise or change the TrainerId tag manually using the data command. A list of all id changes can be found in the documentation.

Fixed

• Many missing team members with different forms (e.g. 'alola')
• Potential log spam for mobs with an invalid trainer id
• Some missing ivs/evs, moves, abilities, etc. for most of the trainers

Removed

• Command: player set defeats <type> [<players>]
