Hey everybody!
As some of you know I own a Pixelmon minecraft server and seeing as I finally sort of finished all the plugin configuration I want to share it with all of you.
What is pixelmon?Well it basically is pokemon in minecraft. Wild pokemon walk around the world and you can catch, battle and train them. To catch them you need to craft your own pokeballs.
How to install this awesome mod?It is quite easy really. I'd recommend following this tutorial:

Tips/tricks- Healing your pokemon:Go to one of the pokecenters to heal your pokemon free of charge. If the server or you get everybody to go to sleep at night your pokemon will also be healed. It is also possible to craft your own healing stations. Check the wiki for that

- Making your own pokeballs:As it is quite a complex process how to craft your own pokeballs I will explain how to make them here.
1. First off gather a whole bunch of iron and smelt them into iron ingots. With 8 iron ingots you can craft a pixelmon anvil. This is the recipe:

2. Get 3 iron ingots and place them horizontally next to each other in a crafting bench. Doing so will give you 5 iron discs.
3. Craft yourself a hammer. I would recommend starting out with an iron hammer. This is the recipe:
http://pixelmonmod.com/wiki/index.php?title=File:IronHammer.png4. Place an iron disc on the pixelmon anvil using your right mouse button and then equip your hammer. LEFT CLICK the anvil while holding you hammer untill the iron disc changes shape 3 times. THEN right click on the anvil again. This will give you an iron base. This is the bottom side of any pokeball.
5. To craft normal pokeball lids gather 3 RED APRICORNS and cook them. You can gather apricorns by RIGHT CLICKING on apricorn trees. (Use the communial apricorn farms to gather your first apricorn if you want)
6. Place the 3 cooked apricorns in a horizontal line in a crafting bench. This will give you pokeball discs. (Note: you can craft different kind of pokeballs using different kind of apricorns)
7. Repeat step 4, but this time place the pokeball disc on the anvil.
8. After this you have to get some standard minecraft buttons. Make these by smelting cobblestone into smooth stone and then placing the smooth stone in a crafting slot.
9. Now place the pokeball lid at the top slot of a crafting bench. Place the button in the middle and the iron base at the bottom.
10. Congratulations, you have just crafted your pokeball!
- Catching pokemon:Catching pokemon is quite easy and can be done using one of two ways:
1. Just throw any pokeball at a pokemon by equipping your pokeball and RIGHT CLICKING.
2. Battle a pokemon and weaken them. Then select "bag" -> "pokeballs" from the menu and choose any pokeball to throw at the wild pokemon.
Wait for a little bit and it will tell you if you have caught the pokemon or not.
- Don't forget!The server AND the pixelmon mod are both still under construction. This means that, as we have noticed, server and client crashes are still quite common. If I am on steam I will try to fix the server as soon as I can if/when it crashes.
What are the server rules?1. Do not grief.
2. Do not steal.
3. Do not cheat.
4. Do not wander off too far, as we only have an X amount of disk space. ( Installed world border at x:3000 and z:3000 )
5. DO not plant apricorn trees EVERYWHERE. There are even communial farms which are free to use if you just replant after using them.
6. If you build in or near a village, please consult with the village owner first!
Simple rules right?
What is the server IP?198.12.123.7
The server is not whitelisted but you cannot build or destroy anything with default permissions. If someone can vouch for you I will give you trainer permissions which allow you to build and use quite a few commands. For a full list of commands you can always type "/help" in game.
Want to help me out?Owning a server is not free and I pay for it myself. I already upgraded the server from a small 6 slot server to an 18 slot server to accommodate more people playing on it at once.
Next to that maintaining the server also costs time. If you want to be nice and donate something let me know, I'd really appreciate it.
Have feedback or suggestions? Let met know!
Any more questions or anything unclear?Let me know and I will gladly help you if I'm not busy :-)
New stuffI will post new stuff I added to the server here.
- Tweaked some prices for commands.
- Added new commands. Use /help for all commands available.
- Some commands now cost money.
- Added a shop plugin. Can buy normal mc stuff from shops now. Will try to figure out how to add pixelmon items later.
- Added a currency system. Use /sell to sell your stuff.
