🟣 Cobblemon Ditto HMs

Become the HM slave you always made suffer. Cobblemon Ditto HMs brings Ditto's Pokopia-inspired HM abilities to any Cobblemon (CurseForge) world — you don't teach the moves to your Pokémon, you learn them yourself.

Works on Fabric and NeoForge, Minecraft 1.21.1.

🧬 How it works

1. 🔍 Find the right Pokémon in the wild — every ability is taught by specific species.
2. 🤝 Sneak + right-click it while holding that ability's trigger item.
3. 🧠 It teaches you the move, permanently — the trigger item is what you pay. Nothing changes hands, so an HM cannot be posted to somebody who never went and found the Pokémon that knows it.
4. 🎡 Press a key for the HM wheel and pick any HM you know.

🤫 Discovery is part of the game. The acquisition tables live only in the wiki — nothing in game lays out which Pokémon teaches which HM, or which item to hold. The Trainer Ditto will name you one species it is not selling, and leave the other two thirds of the answer to you. Spoil yourself, or don't!

🎡 The HM wheel

One keypress opens a radial menu holding every HM you have learned — actives on the outer ring, toggles on the inner one, each tinted by the type of the move it's named after. Nothing to craft, nothing to carry, and no hunting through a menu for the one you want.

Prefer a key per ability? Every HM has its own bindable shortcut too.

⚡ Active HMs

Fire them on demand — each use costs hunger (or experience, if the server prefers) and starts a cooldown:

Cut · Rock Smash · Teleport · Fly · Explosion · Thunder · Camouflage · Substitute · Revival Blessing · Rest — and plenty more.

Fell whole trees with Cut, vein-mine with Rock Smash, blink around with Teleport, ride a lava current with Lava Plume, leave a decoy of yourself with Substitute, steal what a creature is holding with Thief — or go out with a bang with Explosion (you survive at 1 HP… usually).

🔄 Toggle HMs

Passives you switch on and off — each one blocks part of your hunger bar while enabled:

Glide · Dive · Rock Climb · Magnet Rise · Harden · Burning Bulwark · Surf · Jump — and plenty more.

Climb any wall, glide off mountains, breathe underwater, bounce off every landing, freeze water as you walk across it, or pull loose items to you as you mine. Every enabled toggle shows its own HUD icon so you always know what's running.

🧬 Become the creature

Camouflage turns you into the living thing in your crosshair — its skin, its size, its shape — for five minutes. It's a costume, not a copy: nothing extra exists in the world for someone to kill off you.

🎩 A trader comes calling

Now and then a rare wandering Trainer Ditto turns up with five HM Discs laid out, each costing nothing but that HM's own trigger item — a shortcut past the hunt. Learned nothing yet? Your first disc is free.

It's a Ditto in a coat. Throw a Poké Ball and you'll catch it — but then it never comes looking for you again. How good the catch is is the server's call: out of the box it rolls its IVs like any other Ditto.

⚙️ Fully configurable

Every ability's cost, cooldown and power can be tuned in game, along with what HMs are paid for with — hunger, experience, or one then the other — how HMs fire, and how often the trader visits. The wiki has the full list.

🧩 Requirements

• Both loaders: Cobblemon (CurseForge).
• Fabric: Fabric Language Kotlin (CurseForge) and Cloth Config (CurseForge).
• NeoForge: Kotlin for Forge (CurseForge).

Optional, on either loader: Cobblemon: PlayerXP (CurseForge). Paying for HMs with experience works without it — it spends the experience you already have. What PlayerXP adds is the income: it pays you experience for the battles your Pokémon win, which is what makes that payment mode a real choice on a world with mob spawning turned down.
