- Button Isle is peaceful: wild Pokémon only fight a player who hit them first
(tuning/server.json peaceful_zones); its apricorns and coal make Poké Balls
(4 apricorns + coal or charcoal), and the world report checks it has enough.
- Quest book: no boilerplate; each zone page says what is particular to it, and
every zone that needs gear or a field move to be safe has its own quest. New
page on the bigger mods (Cold Sweat, Fight or Flight, Cobblebase, breeding,
veins, shared loot, maps and info).
- The Mire's poison stops 10 blocks below the surface.
- Player battles never cost a Pokémon (CobbleHardcoreMon config, mixins, and the
companion mod's own permadeath).
- tools/item_audit.py: every item with a use has a source on the island; new
sources for the gaps it found (species additions, three recipes).

Build: every tool pinned (JDK, packwiz, Gradle plugins, Python packages), exports
normalised, tools/check_reproducible.py proves two clean builds are byte-identical.
Server-side balance: a server can load config/cobblesurvival/datapack.zip in place of
the jar's data, /reload applies it, tools/server_update.py packages it and refuses
when a client change is needed. JEI drop pages are sent by the server. Code-held
balance numbers moved to tuning/server.json.
Performance: spark in the pack (server only), tools/perf_test.py with fake players
whose chunks really are active, docs/performance.md.
Adrian's feedback: default keys R, U, J, §; drop pages link to Cobblemon Info and show
real chances; bosses only hurt in battles; battle XP halved; channels between the
islands low level; temperature ×3 with insulation doubled; hazards start at once; no
item dots on the map; a wild attack starts a battle; the starter only faints; quest
book on join with a basics page and an HMs page; regional forms obtainable.

Adrian, 2026-11-09: legendaries, mythicals, Ultra Beasts and Paradox Pokemon
come from crafted summons. 22 Sigils (Naganadel evolves from Poipole), one
item told apart by custom data, from world/summons.json through
tools/summons.py: late-game recipes in three tiers (Lv 70, 80, 90), each used
in a fitting zone. A summoned legend fights as a boss (area attacks by level
and type, arena 32, the Guardian's Ward) but can be caught; on capture it
loses every boss mark. One at a time within 96 blocks.
Quest book: a Legends chapter, one quest per Sigil (97 quests). JEI lists each
Sigil as its own item, and Island Drops says where a legend is summoned; drops
Cobblemon names but doesn't have (Ho-Oh's Sacred Ash) get no slot.
Self-tests every_implemented_pokemon_is_obtainable (spawn, fossil or Sigil for
every implemented species) and sigil_summons_a_catchable_legend. Self-tests
and the island check pass.

Adrian (2026-10-31): a Large Furnace where a Fire Pokémon heats real
furnaces (hoppers in and out), our own Electric generator, no upkeep;
then a drop synthesizer (FE into full drop rolls, looting tiers), a
sacrifice altar (level tiers, rare candies only from Lv 80) and a
rebirth chamber (Lv 100 -> shiny Lv 1 first stage, three perfect IVs,
moves kept, Ability Patch so the hidden ability is optional).
- machine/: data-driven 3x3x3 shells (window spots for glass, free
spot under the core), checked in four rotations; the Pokémon walks in
from the party and lives in the core; breaking core or shell sends it
home (party, else PC, offline too); a real Cobblemon entity copy is
shown in the chamber (no AI, invulnerable, uncatchable, never saved).
- Heat Core keeps vanilla furnaces lit and faster; Dynamo Core makes
and pushes FE; Synthesis Core takes FE and rolls drops into a hopper-
extractable buffer; Altar Core sacrifices on a confirmed sneak-use;
Rebirth Core runs on server time.
- Recipes, casing tags, block loot, textures (tools/machine_assets.py),
models, blockstates, names.
- Self-tests: in/out, refusal, shell and core breaks (PC when full),
chunk unload, server restart, and each machine's work.
- Docs: design, balance table, Phase 6 checklist; Phase 5 approved.
