Building Your Base

Once you've claimed land, you can start building:

  • Create a Pokemon healing station

⚔️ Catching Pokemon

Finding Pokemon

Pokemon spawn naturally in the world based on:

  • Biome - Water Pokemon near water, Fire Pokemon in hot biomes, etc.

  • Time of Day - Some Pokemon only spawn at night or day

  • Weather - Certain Pokemon prefer rain or clear weather

Use /checkspawns to see what Pokemon can spawn in your current area!

  • Use your Pokemon's moves strategically

  • Weaken the Pokemon before throwing a Pokeball

  • Different Pokeballs have different catch rates

Pokeball Types

  • Poke Ball - Basic ball, works for most common Pokemon

  • Great Ball - Better catch rate than Poke Ball
