Spawn Animations - Cobblemon Compat

Basic support for Cobblemon in Spawn Animations.

Contains two variants for both spawn animation types (Poof and Digup) - Also available as a mod (Fabric/NeoForge) if you prefer that over a datapack.

Issues

Cobblemon uses custom natural spawning mechanics, which are not entirely compatible with Spawn Animations but it can be made to work with some limitations:

• Don't use the "Vanilla" activation mode, as it will cause Pokemon to spawn without any animation at all.
• Increase the Activation Distance to 40 or higher blocks to prevent Pokemon from bugging out in the distance with the Digup variant.
  • For some reason, Pokemon don't hide underground so they will be visible until they are close enough to the player to trigger the animation, which looks janky.
• Some NPC mons may trigger spawn animations unexpectedly.
  • This can happen depending on how the NPC mons are configured and whether they have owned behaviour correctly set up.
  • If you're a pack maker, ensure either it's mons are spawned uncatchable, and/or have the cobblemon:pokemon_follows_owner behaviour enabled.
