For trainers who want a more authentic Pokémon experience inside Cobblemon, Cobblemon Pokerus Mod brings the classic Pokérus infection mechanic into Minecraft. Your Pokémon can randomly contract Pokérus after battling wild encounters, spreading it to party members and doubling down on EV gains — just like the mainline games. Once enough time passes, infected Pokémon are automatically cured, keeping the system balanced and faithful to the original design.
Key Features
- Random Pokérus contraction — After battling wild Pokémon, your team members have a chance to contract Pokérus, adding an element of surprise to every encounter.
- Party-wide spreading — Infected Pokémon in your party can pass Pokérus to healthy teammates over time, rewarding players who keep their team together.
- Boosted EV gains — While infected, Pokémon receive increased effort values from battles, making competitive training significantly faster.
- Time-based cure system — Pokérus doesn't last forever. Infected Pokémon are cured automatically after a set period, mirroring the original game mechanic.
- Mark list confirmation — You can verify a Pokémon's infection status through its mark list, so there's no guesswork involved.

FAQ
How do I know if my Pokémon has Pokérus?
You can check a Pokémon's infection status through its mark list. If Pokérus is active, it will appear as a mark on the infected Pokémon.
Does Pokérus spread to every Pokémon in my party?
Infected Pokémon in your party may spread Pokérus to other party members, but it is not guaranteed for every Pokémon. Keeping infected and healthy Pokémon together increases the chance of spreading.
Can I use this mod on a Cobblemon multiplayer server?
The mod is built as a Fabric/NeoForge addon for Cobblemon, so it should work in multiplayer as long as the server has Cobblemon, Cobblemon Tim Core, and this mod installed.
