Hey everyone,

If you are burnt out on massive, corporate feeling Cobblemon lobbies, I am building something different. My server, CobbleLabs, has been live for about a week and a half. We average around 10 players active during peak gold times, meaning the world feels alive, but you can still genuinely get to know people.

When you first log in, you will land in a wonderful spawn built by Kayillis. Here is an honest look at what we have right now, what is new, and where we are heading:

Built on Player Compromises
I do not want to force my own random ideas onto the community. Our suggestions channel is incredibly active. When people request changes, we either implement them directly or find a compromise that makes the game better for everyone. Your feedback actively shapes the world.

No Crates. Period.
We do not have crates, and we are not a pay to win trap. The only things on our store are ranks for anyone who wants to help cover server hosting bills. I am currently developing a full, in game progression system where you can earn ranks completely for free just by playing. Natural gameplay will always be the best way to advance.

What is Live and What is New
We have been cooking up a ton of updates based on player feedback:
The Essentials and Economy: Megas, Shinies, GTS, WonderTrade, and Dex Rewards are running smoothly. We use PokeDollars, and PokeHunts are fully live while PokeShout has been dialed back.
Wild Encounters and Ultra Beasts: Ultra Beasts are officially live! Plus, Raids and Legendaries spawn naturally out in the world every 40 minutes with a 50/50 percent chance of appearing.
Quests and PokeBuilder: Complete Quests to earn tokens, which you can spend using /pokebuilder to perfect your team stats, natures, and abilities.
Resource World: A dedicated world for mining and gathering materials so the main world stays clean and grief free.
Survival and Hostile Mobs: To keep builds safe, creepers and skeletons do not spawn naturally. They only spawn via mob spawners, which can be mined with Silk Touch or bought from a CobbleMerchant.
The Pantheon League: Most of our gym progression buildings are completely finished and are just being finalized for release!

Free Kits and Claiming Info
Starter and Claiming Kits: Get a free golden hoe, our claiming tool, and 500 claim blocks right away to protect your home.
Dailies and Weeklies: Weekly kits include Pegasus Feathers, which grant temporary flight! Higher ranks get a longer duration, but everyone gets a taste of it every week to keep it balanced.

Tournament Prep and Info
Heads up: we have a Little Cup / Small Cup Tournament happening either next weekend or the weekend after! Start breeding and training your teams now so you are ready when brackets drop.

Getting Into the Server
Search for our CurseForge modpack under CobbleLabs. If you prefer Modrinth, I am actively building an official pack right now. For now, you can grab the quick config file from our Discord and import it manually.

The Server Icon Masterpiece
Our Discord icon is a wonderfully awful, poorly drawn Porygon wearing a pool floaty that a friend made for an art competition. It looks like it was sketched by a passionate eight year old, and I love it too much to take it down until our artist finishes the official graphics.

Shoutout to the folks at Pokecade and CobbleX for the confidence boost to launch my dream project. Come join our little community while we are early in the journey!
