Bosses (Adrian, 2026-11-02: Eternatus too small and too easy; guardians way bigger and tougher; only defensive stats up; no attack takes more than 25 %): - Guardians scale to about 8 blocks tall (1.5x-12x), Eternatus to 15 blocks (2.5x, was 0.2x). Cave guardians look for a spot with room above them. Bosses already in a world grow on the next check outside battle. - Perfect IVs and 170 EVs each in HP, Defense and Sp. Def, nothing offensive. - The Guardian's Ward, a Showdown-only held item (held_items/guardiansward.js) handed to every boss by a HeldItemProvider: Defense and Sp. Def x2 while defending, and one attack (all hits together) takes at most 25 % of max HP. - Area attacks that start at the boss reach half its width further. Machines (Adrian, 2026-11-02): a working core is active: it glows, its front animates (flickering fire on the furnace core, pulsing emblems elsewhere), and particles show in the chamber and at the core (client side). The Pokemon inside flinches about every 15 s (red flash, Cobblemon's hit sound, no damage). Roadmap Phase 8: every item that can drop gets a JEI page naming its sources. Self-tests: practice_bosses_spawn checks size and training, boss_takes_a_quarter_per_attack runs a real battle (each Lv 100 Bullet Seed takes exactly a quarter), heat_core_cooks_with_hoppers checks the active state and the flinch. Self-tests and the island check pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Balance values
Every tunable lives in a config file or in this table. Placeholder means guessed and not yet approved by Adrian; never treat a placeholder as decided.
| Value | Current | Status | Where it is applied | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Island radius | 1,500 blocks | Placeholder | tools/pokeball_preset.py --radius |
Test value from the roadmap; final size after Phase 1 review |
| Poké Ball band | 160 blocks wide channel across the middle | Placeholder | tools/pokeball_preset.py --band |
|
| Poké Ball button | centre island r 280, ring channel 120 wide | Placeholder | tools/pokeball_preset.py --button --ring |
The world spawn lands on the button |
| Coastline roughness | 0.03 (smooth, so the ball reads as a circle) | Placeholder | tools/pokeball_preset.py |
|
| Raw ore blocks in structures | raw iron → tuff, raw copper → terracotta, raw gold → yellow terracotta | Placeholder | tools/clean_structures.py (RAW) |
Look-alikes only; ores in structures become stone/deepslate/netherrack |
| World seed | chosen by tools/seed_search.py |
Placeholder | world/world.json |
Decides where each biome lands on the island |
| Seed-search targets | ≥5% land share per surface biome (3% for cherry grove, mangrove swamp, windswept hills, jagged peaks); no biome above 35%; gentle land within 350 blocks of 0,0 | Placeholder | tools/seed_search.py |
Scoring weights, not gameplay values |
| Revival Charm recipe | 2 gold ingots, 2 Revives, 1 Max Revive (shaped) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-29) | kubejs/server_scripts/revival_charm.js |
Meant to be expensive; gold comes from veins (Phase 4) and loot chests |
| Healing Machine recipe | 3 gold ingots, 4 iron ingots, 1 Max Revive, 1 diamond (shaped; Cobblemon: 3 copper, 4 iron, Max Revive, redstone) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-29) | kubejs/server_scripts/healing_machine.js |
Roadmap: make Healing Machines expensive |
| Healing Machine recharge | 3,600 s from empty to full (6 charge, one per full Pokémon heal; Cobblemon: 900 s) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-29) | config/cobblemon/main.json → secondsToChargeHealingMachine |
So a machine heals a full party about once an hour of play |
| Fainted Pokémon auto-recovery | never (defaultFaintTimer 1e9 s) |
Decided (permadeath) | config/cobblemon/main.json |
|
| Zone level bands | Button Isle 2–10, Southwold 8–18, Westmarch 15–25, Verdant Jungle 18–30, Highland Meadows 25–35, Mangrove Mire 25–38, Sunscorch 30–45, Frostpeak 40–55, Shallows 5–20, Deep Sea 30–50, Lush Caves 12–28, Dripstone 22–38, Deep Dark 45–60, Basalt Furnace 55–70 | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | world/zones.json → levels, then tools/zone_layout.py and tools/zone_spawns.py |
Zone shapes approved (Adrian, 2026-10-29) |
| Evolution lines per zone (targets) | 15–35 per zone, scaled to the 377 lines available | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | world/zones.json → lines |
Result per zone in docs/zone-species.md |
| Lines pinned to a zone | Durant, Torkoal, Heatmor → Basalt Furnace; Ditto → Deep Dark, rare bucket in slime chunks and ultra-rare elsewhere (Placeholder; Adrian, 2026-10-31: rare, in an endgame area) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | world/zones.json → species |
Basalt's own lines were all too big for its caves. Ditto breeds with anything, so it's an endgame find; Deep Dark target 21 lines, Button Isle 19, so nothing else moved |
| Comfortable temperature range | 0.25–1.51 (Cold Sweat units; Cold Sweat: 0.4–1.51) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | config/coldsweat/main.toml |

| Windswept hills temperature | 45–72 °F (Cold Sweat: 24–58 °F) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | config/coldsweat/world.toml |
They lie in the starter lowlands too |
| Insulating armour | fur set (cold 10/14/12/10), hide set (heat 10/14/12/10), as Cold Sweat; leather armour none (Cold Sweat: 5/7/6/5 both) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | config/coldsweat/item.toml |
Frostpeak at noon: about 1 min bare, 14 min in fur; Sunscorch at noon: about 2 min bare, 25 min in hide |
| Sewn-in insulation | goat fur 2 cold, hoglin hide 2 heat, wool 0.5 cold, leather 0.5/0.5 (Cold Sweat: wool 1.5, leather 1/1, rabbit hide 1.5 heat) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | config/coldsweat/item.toml |
|
| Goat Fur / Hoglin Hide recipes | 8 wool + 1 Heat Rock → 8 Goat Fur; 8 leather + 1 Icy Rock → 8 Hoglin Hide (a set takes 24) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | kubejs/server_scripts/insulation.js |
Heat and Icy Rocks come from the guardians before Frostpeak and Sunscorch (archaeology finds too) |
| Guardian respawn | 5 hours of game time after being beaten | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-29) | world/zones.json → guardian_respawn_hours |
Fixed spots |

Candy M | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | world/zones.json → guardian.drops |
3 rocks make one full fur or hide set |
| Mire poison | Poison I for 7 s, renewed every 5 s while in the Mire without Mire Waders | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | datapacks/core/data/cobblesurvival/zone_hazards/mire.json |
Vanilla Poison stops at half a heart |
| Field moves (Cobblemon HMs) | mod defaults: all 39 abilities on, no level minimum, no fullness or friendship cost; Rock Smash breaks up to 32 connected ore blocks with no cooldown | Placeholder | config/cobblemon_hms.json (generated by the mod; the pack ships none yet) |
Rock Smash mines any ore, whatever pickaxe the player has. HMs' minLevel is the player's XP level, not the Pokémon's |

Telegraph 2.5 s at the lowest tier down to 1.5 s; damage level/6 health points (Morpeko 3, Moltres 12); circle every 7.4 s down to 5.6 s, line and cone less often; Fire types burn, Ice types freeze, Poison types poison | Placeholder | tools/zone_bosses.py → datapacks/core/data/cobblesurvival/bosses/*.json |
Adrian, 2026-11-02: every guardian, harder in harder zones |

| End boss | Eternatus Lv 80, 2.5× size (15 blocks tall; it was 0.2×, about a block, until Adrian found it too small, 2026-11-02), back 5 hours after a win; 12,000 XP the first time, 500 after | Placeholder | bosses/end.json (tools/zone_bosses.py → END) |
Stands in for Giratina, which Cobblemon 1.8.4 has no model for |
| End spawns | the End is a zone, Lv 50–70; Cobblemon's End lines spawn there (Beheeyem, Reuniclus, Metagross; Gothitelle and Sigilyph in End cities; Malamar and Unown with a Poké Snack), all in the common bucket, each line's heaviest entry weight 10, Metagross 2 | Placeholder | world/zones.json → dimensions (levels, bucket, line_weight, rare_factor), then tools/zone_layout.py and tools/zone_spawns.py |
Adrian, 2026-11-02: the End was barren; Lv 50–70 his pick |
| Boss size | guardians about 8 blocks tall (Morpeko 4.9 at the 12× cap, Moltres 8, Regigigas 9.8 at the 1.5× floor); Eternatus 15 blocks; a cave guardian's spot needs that much air above it, else the roomiest floor within 24 blocks | Placeholder | tools/zone_spawns.py (GUARDIAN_HEIGHT, GUARDIAN_SCALE_MIN, GUARDIAN_SCALE_MAX), tools/zone_bosses.py (END_HEIGHT) |
Adrian, 2026-11-02: way bigger. Area attacks that start at the boss reach half its width further |
| Boss toughness | perfect IVs and 170 EVs each in HP, Defense and Sp. Def (510, the games' limit), nothing in Attack, Sp. Atk or Speed; in battle the Guardian's Ward: Defense and Sp.

Adrian, 2026-11-02: tougher, not stronger; the 25 % cap is his number. Applies to guardians, the End boss and practice copies |
| Machine look | a working core glows (light 10), its front animates (8 frames, 3 ticks each) and particles show; it keeps looking busy 2 s after the work stops; the Pokémon inside flinches (red flash, hit sound, no damage) about every 15 s while it works | Placeholder | MachineBlock.ACTIVE_LIGHT, tools/machine_assets.py (FRAMES, FRAME_TICKS), MachineEffects (particle and sound chances), MachineBlockEntity (ACTIVE_LINGER, FLINCH_ONE_IN) |
Adrian, 2026-11-02. Working means: a heated furnace has something to cook, the generator isn't full, the synthesizer gets energy, a rebirth runs, the altar holds a Pokémon |
| Level pressure | full experience up to 5 levels above the zone's band, then 10 % less per level, at least 10 % (Exp. Candy and commands exempt) | Decided (Adrian, 2026-10-30) | world/zones.json → level_pressure |
