📦 Modpack Update – v1.0.0

⚖️ Balance & Difficulty

• Reworked Pokémon level scaling across the world

• Wild Pokémon levels now scale more consistently with player progression

• Pokémon will gradually reach higher levels as players explore further from spawn

• Targeted progression: Wild Pokémon approach ~Lv.60 around 10,000 blocks from spawn

• Reduced early-game difficulty spikes in mid-tier biomes (e.g. Swamps)

• Adjusted Nether and End level ranges for smoother late-game progression

• Improved cave/depth scaling to make underground exploration more challenging but fair

• Party scaling variance reduced for more stable encounters

• Slight global difficulty increase for a more engaging experience

🌍 World Progression

• Distance-based level scaling has been refined

• Biome and structure level limits adjusted for better exploration flow

• Evolution stage respect improved to prevent unrealistic early high-stage spawns

• Early-game Pokémon (e.g. Caterpie) now have restricted level ranges

🛠️ Server & Gameplay

• Spawn system prepared for improved progression balance

• Compatibility improvements across scaling systems

• General performance and stability tweaks

📈 Quality of Life

• Encounter difficulty is now more predictable

• Late-game areas provide more rewarding challenges

• Exploration is now meaningfully tied to progression

This update focuses on creating a smoother difficulty curve and a more rewarding exploration experience while keeping the game slightly more challenging overall.

If you want, I can make:

• a shorter version

• a more “hardcore” sounding one

• or a player-friendly casual tone.
