Cobblemon Gacha Machine

Animation

A configurable gacha / capsule machine block for Fabric Minecraft that can reward items and Pokémon. Put a Coin (Cobblemon Relic Coin, Emerald, or Diamond) in the machine and get a capsule — then receive randomized rewards depending on the capsule rarity. Fully configurable loot tables, accepted coin items and a configurable list of Pokémon.

Features

Rarities

4 capsule rarities:
- Normal — 15% chance to give a common/uncommon Pokémon.
  - 1 in 2048 chance to be Shiny✨
- Rare — 30% chance to give a uncommon/rare Pokémon.
  - 1 in 1024 chance to be Shiny✨
- Ultra Rare — 50% chance to give a ultra-rare Pokémon.
  - 1 in 512 chance to be Shiny✨
- Legendary — 100% chance to give a legendary/mythical Pokémon.
  - 1 in 256 chance to be Shiny✨
Pokémon that you haven't caught will be more likely to appear in capsules.
Pokémon in each capsule can be modified in the configuration file.
Loot tables for each capsule can be swapped or overridden via a datapack.
Configurable accepted coin items (which items the machine accepts as currency) via a datapack.
Works with Cobblemon 1.7 (for 1.6.1 use v1.4.5) and other mods that add spawns.
Compatible with Mega Showdown!

NOTE: For the legendary capsule to work, you need to add a mod/datapack that adds these spawns (Ex: MysticMons, AllTheMons, AllTheMons x Mega Showdown, etc) and

if you use a data pack to add legendary Pokémon MAKE SURE TO ADD THE DATAPACK TO `/saves/<Your World>/datapacks` OR use a customList in the configuration file if you want to customize.

I recommend using Global Packs if you want to have the datapacks in all your worlds without having to copy and paste.

Crafting

Note: Works with any Poké Ball.

Crafting

Default configuration location

config/cobble-gacha-machine/default.json

NOTE: You only need to modify the values or the customList; do not delete any options, or the mod will fail

poolSize: Number of capsules that spin in the gacha (Generated capsules)
coinsToSpin: Coins to spin the gacha.
megashowdownItems: This edits the loot table to add the Mega Showdown items; if you don't want to add them or prefer to add them manually (datapack), disable this option.
capsuleWeight: Capsules with a higher weight will appear more frequently, while those with a lower value will be rarer to obtain
pokemonSpawnChance: Probability that a Pokémon will spawn 0.0 (0% No spawn) 1.0 (100% Always)
shinyChance: 1 in X chance to be shiny.
pokemonMinLevel/pokemonMaxLevel: The Pokémon will spawn between these levels, including the value
pokemonPool: Pokémon pools can be common, uncommon, rare and ultra-rare. Legendary pools are not exactly pools; they are the internal labels of Pokémon of each species, because the legendary ones are also ultra-rare. (I recommend not modifying this option in the legendary capsule)
poolMinWeight/poolMaxWeight: The Pokémon will be selected between these weights, including the value; Low values are rare Pokémon, high values are more common.

Official Cobblemon Pools/Weights are used. Cobblemon Pools/Weights

Custom List

If you want to add a custom list, you can add it to customList as follows: (Please note that this will ignore the pokemonPool, poolMinWeight, and poolMaxWeight options)

The weight of each Pokémon will be used to select it; a high weight is more likely to appear.

The species names are the file names in Species but here's a trick if you don't know the species of a Pokémon: write the name in lowercase letters and without spaces. Many mods add their Pokémon this way, so “Tapu Koko” becomes “tapukoko” for example

Loot tables

Loot tables (can be overridden with a datapack):

data/cobble-gacha-machine/loot_table/capsules/normal_capsule.json
data/cobble-gacha-machine/loot_table/capsules/rare_capsule.json
data/cobble-gacha-machine/loot_table/capsules/ultra_rare_capsule.json
data/cobble-gacha-machine/loot_table/capsules/legendary_capsule.json (It doesn't exist, but you can copy any of the others and create it.)

Accepted coin items (can be overridden with a datapack):

data/cobble-gacha-machine/tags/item/coin_items.json

You can edit the recipe in the following path in your data pack

data/cobble-gacha-machine/recipe/gacha_block.json

Datapack

Datapack template

This template lets you easily customize your Cobble Gacha Machine loot tables and coins.

🛠️ How to edit:

Extract the ZIP and edit its contents as you like.
When re-zipping it, make sure the ZIP does not contain an extra folder at the top level — the files pack.mcmeta and the data folder must be at the root of the archive.

✅ Correct:
my_pack.zip
├── pack.mcmeta
└── data/
└───── cobble-gacha-machine/
└─────────── loot_table/
└───────────────── capsules/
└────────────────────── normal_capsule.json
└────────────────────── rare_capsule.json
└────────────────────── ultra_rare_capsule.json
└─────────── recipe/
└───────────────── gacha_block.json
└─────────── tags/
└───────────────── item/
└────────────────────── coin_items.json
❌ Wrong:
my_pack.zip
    └── my_pack/
        ├── pack.mcmeta
        └── data/

Place the final .zip file inside /datapacks OR /saves/<Your World>/datapacks folder.

Installation

Install Cobblemon (required for Pokémon spawning / integration). Version should match the game/mod compatibility.
Place the mod .jar into your mods/ folder and start the game/server.
(Optional) Add a datapack to override loot tables or coin item.
Configure config/cobble-gacha-machine/default.json if you want to customize the pool.
