🌟 Introduction

Do you miss your legendary Pokémon feeling truly unique?

Limited Legends brings back the rarity by letting you set hard limits on how many times each Pokémon can be captured — or whether they must be fought first — ensuring that catching one feels truly special.

✨ Every feature is configurable. For example, you could use this mod only for its spawn notifications!

✨ Features

🛑 Per Pokémon Limits
Prevent the capturing of legendary and mythic Pokémon (or any others) once their configurable capture limit has been reached.

🚧 Per Player Limits
Limit the number of Legendaries a single player can own — either overall or per species.

🥊 Fight Before Capturing
Require players to weaken certain Pokémon in battle before they can attempt to catch them.

⬆️ Catch rate penalties: Makes catching higher level Pokémon more difficult!

📄 Customizable Config
Enable/disable any feature and apply them to any Pokémon you want!
(Default: Legendaries + Mythics)

🚫 Optional Spawn Blocking
Don’t just stop captures — block the Pokémon from spawning entirely!

📣 Optional Spawn Messages
Announce to all players whenever a limited Pokémon spawns.
