About CobbleBoom
From ModrinthPokemon now actually explode when using explosive moves
About mod
Do you ever find it odd that when you use Self-Destruct, Explosion or Misty Explosion there is no actual explosion? This mod is designed to correct this frustrating omission.
With this Cobblemon side-mod, every time any Pokémon uses an explosive move in battle, an actual explosion will occur. How does it work? The mod detects the use of a move, the activation of an ability, or a Pokémon fainting. It then checks if a corresponding entry exists in the config file. If an entry is found, it triggers an explosion similar to a Creeper or TNT, with a configurable power.
Be careful! There's a high chance of turning your world into Swiss cheese and your house into ruins!
The explosion's power, as well as the list of explosive moves, abilities, and Pokémon, can be configured in the config file config/cobbleboom.json.
