Welcome to Cobblemon: Fierce Competition!
Requires Cobblemon
Heyo! Lets cut to the chase;
This datapack aims to fix a lot of niches and pet peeves I have with other trainer addons in the Cobblemon community. Instead of just cramming a bunch of trainers into Cobblemon and calling it a day, this addon will feature (when complete);
- 5 Custom gym leaders meant to fit in the Minecraft environment
- 19 Trainer classes with teams carefully developed for each phase of the game
- Interactive NPCs that cover various functions
- A (somewhat) interesting lore integration and a rewarding conclusion
- Small custom structures that do not interfere with your playthrough
- Reworked/reutilized mechanics from vanilla that seamlessly include cobblemon into your world
- Some brand-new items
We have a Trello board so you can track our progress!

## I do not recommend installing this version as Beta 3 Hotfix 2 fixes crucial issues with it
- Changes and fixes**
- Added more dialogues for Youngsters & Lasses
- Chests in homes should have their loot tables set up
- Additions**
- Fully implemented Herh, the ground-type gym leader
- His team consists of 4 Pokemon; Golurk, Diggersby, Clodsire & Mooshtank
- Each Pokemon is scaled relative to the player's highest level Pokemon. no over-levelling this time!
- To get to fight him you must first trade for a Loud Horn with a Wandering Trader. Don't worry though; every Wandering Trader you see will have the trade available. Honk the horn at the right place and the battle will start immediately! (cutscene pending)
- Winning against Herh will grant you the Humming Badge!
- Known Bugs**
- Herh does not appear in his gym (man I'm such an idiot)
