In addition, you can choose whether they have access to these boosted stats or not using the \/pokeedit command.<br \/>\nExample: \/pokeedit 1 partner=true<\/p>\n<p>This is solely inspired by the Partner mechanic from Let&#8217;s Go Pikachu and Let&#8217;s Go Eevee, and is planned to be expanded to _all_ Pok\u00e9mon instead of just those two.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Added the Partner aspect to the game! A Pok\u00e9mon with this aspect active will have an increased base stat total! More powerful Pok\u00e9mon, like the Legendaries, pseudo-legendaries, Mythicals, Ultra Beasts, and Paradox Pok\u00e9mon have a BST increase of 100 points, while all other Pok\u00e9mon have a BST increase of 110 points! (This is solely for balancing)<br \/>\n  &#8211; Starting in v1.2.5, you can give this aspect to your Pok\u00e9mon without needing to use commands by reaching maximum friendship with it, then &#8220;evolving&#8221; it.<br \/>\n  &#8211; The Mega Evolutions of these Pok\u00e9mon _are_ taken into account and have all received a modified base stat total as well.<br \/>\n  &#8211; Some Partner Pok\u00e9mon also get Ability changes or gain an additional Ability!<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Jolteon gains access to the Ability Steadfast.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Flareon gains access to the Ability Sheer Force.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Vaporeon gains access to the Ability Rain Dish.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Espeon gains access to the Ability Telepathy (originally Magic Guard).<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Umbreon gains access to the Ability Unnerve. Partner Umbreon&#8217;s Hidden Ability was also changed from Inner Focus to Intimidate.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Leafeon gains access to the Ability Infiltrator.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Glaceon gains access to the Ability Competitive (originally Slush Rush).<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Sylveon gains access to the Ability Friend Guard.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Mega Gallade&#8217;s Ability was changed from Inner Focus to Sharpness.<br \/>\n    &#8211; The Beldum line had its Hidden Ability changed from Light Metal to a much more beneficial Ability in Heavy Metal.<br \/>\n    &#8211; Partner Froslass receives Infiltrator as a secondary standard Ability.<br \/>\n  &#8211; Partner Pok\u00e9mon that can ride on your shoulder give beneficial potion effects as long as they remain on your shoulder!<br \/>\n&#8211; Starting in v1.3, Partner Pikachu and Partner Eevee can learn their exclusive moves from the Let&#8217;s Go games (except for Pika Papow and Veevee Volley respectively) via level-up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; If you are using the Extra Eeveelutions mod, the unofficial Eeveelutions have also been taken into account and have all received a modified base stat total.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Starting in v1.4, if you are using the CobblemonRider mod in your instance\/modpack, there is a separate download that gives you an updated config that features Partner Pok\u00e9mon, allowing you to ride them as you would with their regular non-Partner variants. To use it, download the extra &#8220;Rider config&#8221; zip file in any version starting from v1.4, copy the config file within it, and paste it into your world&#8217;s folder. Do not put it into your resource pack or data pack folder, they won&#8217;t work if you try it. Only use this if you have that mod in your modpack.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, 504 out of 1,025 of the official Pok\u00e9mon are available as Partner Pok\u00e9mon, plus a few extras from other mods.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Starting in v1.8, Partner Pok\u00e9mon can now use their species&#8217; exclusive Z-Moves, and Mega Showdown is now a requirement to use the datapack.<br \/>\n  &#8211; Starting in v1.8.1.5, G-Max Moves are now usable by Partner Pok\u00e9mon as well!<\/p>\n<p>Current issues:<br \/>\n&#8211; Regional variants are bugged, so they do not gain the Partner aspect for whatever reason.<\/p>\n<p>Planned:<br \/>\n&#8211; Add more available Partner Pok\u00e9mon.<br \/>\n&#8211; Fix the bug with regional variants.<\/p>\n<p>Warning: DO NOT put Partner Pok\u00e9mon into a teambuilder. They will NOT show up at all. If you&#8217;re going to put them into a teambuilder, disable the Partner aspect first. This also does NOT have compatability with the Cobblemon Transporter, so please don&#8217;t try to place Partner Pok\u00e9mon in there.<\/p>\n<p>To use this data pack, you must insert it into your world&#8217;s data pack folder. For those who don&#8217;t know how to do this, all you need to do is go into the &#8220;saves&#8221; folder of the instance you&#8217;re using, select the world you want to put the data pack on, open the &#8220;datapacks&#8221; folder, then drop the download in there. No need to unzip it.<\/p>\n<p>You are free to use this data pack in your servers and worlds as you wish.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: Currently incompatible with the current version of Mega Showdown. Working on fixes to regain compatibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Cobblemon data pack that adds availability to special Pok\u00e9mon with higher BSTs known as Partner Pok\u00e9mon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"partner-pokemon","_minecraft_project_id":"KSUvCcDq","_minecraft_author":"JediTheHedgehog","_minecraft_license":"LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved","_minecraft_downloads":5634,"_minecraft_follows":17,"_minecraft_client_side":"optional","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"partner-pokemon.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":4564718,"_minecraft_version_count":23,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T00:36:55.147524Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2025-03-16T05:29:27.727892Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2025-11-21T21:34:06.670621Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/partner-pokemon","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":0,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-07T00:51:39+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"7721f10e68e0fd77a4c929712731390f","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[84,97,104,89,158,90],"mod_loader":[86,99,106,160],"minecraft_version":[36,37],"class_list":["post-119595","mod","type-mod","status-publish","hentry","mod_category-datapack","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-forge","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-optimization","mod_loader-datapack","mod_loader-fabric","mod_loader-forge","mod_loader-neoforge","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-21-1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
