Starting off​When you start, you basically want to use /kit starter to get 8 Pixelballs and some food to keep you going. Throughout the game, you can't starve to death as you will stop getting hurt at 5/10 hearts.

An easy way to get food is to kill Magikarp (these are fish that you can find in almost every water source as they are very common). They drop 2-3 fish when killed, and they are very easy to kill. I started playing Pixelmon 4 days ago and I didn't know a lot about it either.If you press R it will throw out your Pixelmon, and to scroll between your Pixelmons you press these keys and. When you first start off, you want to walk out of spawn and find a Pixelmon that looks pretty good.

When you find one you want, you right click while looking at the Pixelmon and holding your Pixelballs. This will throw your ball and try to catch the Pixelmon. Different Pixelmons have different catch rates, so you may not catch it at first. If you do catch it, in the chat it will say 'You captured PixelmonName!'

And you will have a lovely Pixelmon, however if you don't catch it then it will disappear. You will loose your Pixelballs whether you catch it or not. Battles​Once you have a Pixelmon, you can battle wild Pixelmons or your friend's Pixelmons. You battle them by throwing out your Pixelmon (by pressing R) and it should hit the other Pixelmon when it spawns. This will start a battle and you can either battle, bag, run or change your Pixelmon. If you choose to battle, you can do a number of different attacks depending on what your Pixelmon is, and as your Pixelmon levels up you will learn new attacks. If you click bag, you can try to capture the Pixelmon or use items (such as health potions etc.) to help you win the battle.

R/PixelmonMod: Pixelmon is a Minecraft modification that brings the wonderful world of Pokemon into Minecraft. Boasting more than 180 Pokemon Press J to jump to the feed.

Trying to capture a Pixelmon in battle is better than trying to capture it when not fighting as it gives you unlimited tries (however many Pixelballs you have) rather than one try before it disappears. If you bring the Pixelmon to a low health, it will have a higher catch rate. The move 'False Swipe' takes Pixelmons down to 1 health, and this will give them a much higher capture rate without killing them. When you have multiple Pixelmons, you can change in a battle (for instance, if one of your Pixelmons is badly hurt you can change to a healthy one). What are hives. You can also try and escape if you don't want to kill it or if you can't kill it.

There's a chance you won't escape, but you can try to escape again after they attack. You can't escape when battling friends instead of wild Pixelmons. When you kill other Pixelmons, you gain xp which helps you to level up. As your Pixelmon levels up, it can learn new moves and it can also evolve (but it won't do this every time you level up, only at certain levels).

Spawn​At spawn, if you go foward there is a building with 3 key machines. A healer looks like a small white bed, and it will heal all of your Pixelmons and revive the ones that have fainted. The computer will allow you to store your Pixelmons if you want to carry different ones, and it also has a bin for if you want to throw away your Pixelmon but you don't want to do that as the computer has a lot of space. At the top of the building, there are trading machines that allow you to trade Pixelmons with your friends and you can also trade eggs for Pixelmons. You can't trade items for Pixelmons in the trading machine (such as 1 diamond). At spawn, there is also a shop where you can buy or sell goods for/with money.

You can check how much money you have with /bal. Mounts​When some of your Pixelmons become a certain level, they may become mountable, but it also depends on which species they are.

If your Pixelmon can fly then you will be able to fly it around the map, but if it can't fly then you will be able to ride it but it will just walk everywhere. When you ride a Pixelmon, it always walks in the direction it's head it looking at and not where you are looking, so you have to control it with the A, D and W or and ^ depending on what keys you use to move. Mounting Pixelmons is a great way to travel fast, and some Pixelmons are faster than others. You do not need saddles to ride any of the Pixelmons. There are water mounts, land mounts and flying mounts. GymsPhanaticMc Pixelmon now has gyms where you can battle leaders.

To find the gyms, type /warps for the list and /warp gym name to go to it. Initiate battle with the leader the same way as you would a normal Pokemon, then try to beat it. You can only defeat each gym leader once, and when you do, you will gain a badge (depending on the gym type) and a small reward (such as 10 ultraballs).

Put the badge somewhere safe like a chest or item frame because you will need it later. You can also apply to be a gym leader here;BreedingTo breed pokes, you need a ranch block and specific blocks depending on your type of Pokemon. Each Pokemon type has certain blocks it needs to breed which you can find on the link provided, and on the website, each block has a number between 1-3. Blocks with a 3 next to them have the optimum (best) breeding time and will breed the quickest, however they are also usually the least common (e.g cake blocks). The ranch needs to be 9x9 to work the best and it has to be on a flat area.

If you want to breed two pokes from different groups (e.g an electric Pika and a normal Ditto) and you need two different blocks (rails and smoothstone) you need to set it out like a chess board so that there is an even amount of each block. Dittos can breed with anything other than legendaries, and if you breed two Dittos together it will give you a random egg that can be any Pokemon other than a legendary because it is disabled.HatchingTo hatch an egg, you just need to pass a certain number of steps (usually from 5000 to 10000). If you click on your Pokemons summary (right click your Pokemon in your inventory) it will show you a rough estimate of how long left (e.g the egg is starting to crack). To pass the steps, you can either:. Fly.

Walk. Run.

Swim. Jump. Etc. (Note: minecarts do not work for hatching). @ good beginner guide, but a few minor corrections. The things used to make pokeballs are apricorns, not acorns, park balls are just as good as masterballs, and cloning is only for getting mewtwo from mew. Another thing, there are water mounts too, not just land and air, and the level of a pokemon doesn't determine if the pokemon is mountable or not, just what species it is, however most unevolved pixelmon are not mounts and evolved are, so you are right in a sensen Somethings to note are that timer and fast balls effects are not implemented so they don't give a modifier to the catch rate.
