>💡 Looking for a real Pokémon challenge inside Minecraft?
Pixelmon Run & Bun is built for you. Test your skills, build your perfect team, and conquer Hoenn.
Enjoy a full game experience with a custom map, curated encounters, unique AI, and a complete quest/progression system.
✨ Features
🗺️ Fully Open-World Hoenn Adventure
- Explore a fully recreated Hoenn region, complete with beautiful sights, custom spawns, and nearly 1,000 total NPCs.
- The map is completely open — but progression, battles, and wild encounters are tied to your story progress. Expect a balanced, well-thought-out progression.
- 438 handmade trainer battles to challenge you throughout your playthrough.
- A carefully crafted 500-Pokémon Dex, designed to provide every tool you’ll need for your journey.
📖 Quests & Progression
- Designed to blend the satisfying structure of expert-style progression packs with the lore-filled world and battle-style of Pokémon.
- Only 80 mandatory dialogues, but thousands of lines of optional lore, explanations, and story for players who want to dive deeper.
⚔️ Truly Challenging Custom AI
- Every single trainer uses our custom Run & Bun AI — far smarter and harder than standard Pixelmon trainers.
- Expect clever strategy, setup moves, hazards, and synergy — no more mindless wins.
- Trainer teams are taken straight from the original ROM hack or curated by hand. Every team is well thought out.
🍬 Reworked Leveling & Progression
- EXP and EV gain disabled — Forget the grind. Pokémon level up only via Rare Candy or the custom Endless Candy.
- A level cap system controls progression; higher-level Pokémon and trainers unlock as you advance.
🧳 Major Quality of Life Improvements
- 📦 Portable PC & Party Healing items — no need to backtrack after every battle.
- ⚔️ New BattleInfo HUD displays stat changes, hazards, field effects, and Mega Evolutions during battle.
- 🛠️ Simplified HM system — unlock exploration abilities forever with a single item use.
- 💸 Balanced PokéDollar economy — money is limited, and playing "deathless" earns extra rewards!
🧭 Dynamic Map & Exploration Features
- Every major location and route is fully cartographed — your current location is always tracked on the HUD.
- As you enter new areas, the game alerts you with the location name, keeping you informed of where you are in the world at all times.
- Never get lost — the map is designed to make navigation clear, even in the open-world format.
🌿 Custom Environments & Field Effects
- Unique, beautiful environments handcrafted to match the themes and field effects of each area — including Sandstorm, Tailwind, and more.
- Certain areas have special field effects active during battles, giving them strategic importance and encouraging team planning.
🤝 Built for Multiplayer
- A variety of features tailor made to enable a multiplayer experience. Progress alongside your friends.
🔍 Other Highlights
- Gauntlet battles (back-to-back trainers) with custom restrictions and rewards.
- Full support for true Double and Tag Battles — like Multi Battles in mainline Pokémon.
- Custom Game Corner with rare, exclusive Pokémon prizes.
- Custom Safari Zone game with an unusual twist.
🚧 Notes
