If you're running multiple Cobblemon addons from developer tmetcalfe89, Cobblemon Tim Core Mod is the glue that holds everything together. This shared library eliminates code duplication across all "Tim" series Cobblemon mods, bundling common utilities, bug fixes, and Pokémon extensions into a single dependency. Without it, expect broken features and conflicts — with it, your Cobblemon modpack runs the way it should.
Key Features
- Unified mod framework — Provides base classes for mod structure and config handling, so all Tim-series addons share consistent architecture and simplified configuration with overridable settings.
- Pokémon entity extensions — Expands Cobblemon's Pokémon entities with additional attributes and behaviors, giving addon developers more control over how Pokémon look and act in-game.
- Custom event system — Introduces a dedicated event system for Cobblemon interactions, along with tools for event handling and debugging across dependent mods.
- Advanced spawn management — Offers spawn control tools including the ability to reserve spawns for specific players, filter and match Pokémon by criteria, and block unwanted spawns entirely.
- Held item and data management — Handles Pokémon data and held items through a unified system, reducing the chance of conflicts between multiple addons modifying the same data.
- Core bug fixes — Patches known issues in base Cobblemon, improving stability for any modpack that depends on this library.

FAQ
Do I need Cobblemon Tim Core if I only use one Tim addon?
Yes. Even a single Tim-series Cobblemon addon depends on this core library for its base classes, config system, and shared utilities. Without it installed, the addon will not load.
Does Cobblemon Tim Core Mod work with both Fabric and NeoForge?
It does. The mod supports both Fabric (with Fabric API) and NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1 and 1.21. Make sure you download the correct version for your loader.
Will this mod affect performance or change gameplay on its own?
As a library mod, Cobblemon Tim Core appears to be lightweight and does not add visible gameplay changes by itself. It runs in the background, providing utilities and fixes that other Tim-series addons rely on.
