Adrian, 2026-11-09: set up the shader but keep it disabled by default. Iris
1.8.14-beta.1 (built for the pack's Sodium 0.8.13) and Complementary Reimagined
r5.9.3, both client only and fetched from Modrinth. Default Options' extra
folder ships config/iris.properties with shaders off and Complementary
preselected, copied only when a player has none. Toggle Shaders is on M, the
only free letter; Iris's other keys are unbound. tools/build.py fails if the
settings name a shader file the pack doesn't install.
Smoke test passes; client dependencies are satisfied. Not launched on a client.

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.

Phase 8 approved (2026-11-09). Adrian's Phase 9 answers: left-out Pokemon rare
in fitting zones; legendaries from crafted summons; no public release.
- Ore veins more sporadic but bigger: nodes about 40 % rarer, veins about 30 %
further apart, each one block larger in radius. 1.5-3x the ore overall; a
new island is needed to see it. World check on the regenerated island passes.
- The respawn block (Regenerating Ore Veins' regenerator): the aim passes
through it unless sneaking (mixin, the pack's first), so ore behind it can be
mined; much fainter glass through KubeJS assets. Self-test
regenerator_lets_the_aim_through casts a real ray.
- 31 lines (67 species) with no matching island biome, or no spawn data
(Rotom), get rare homes in fitting zones (world/zones.json -> homeless).
Existing spawns and guardians don't change. JEI data and quests regenerated.
- surface_nodes_lie_in_the_ground checks the node's centre column: a wider
node's edge can lie under a tree or a slope.
- Roadmap: every implemented Pokemon obtainable; Iris and Complementary
Reimagined as the default shader.
Self-tests and the island check pass.
