Cobblemon Ball Satchel

Cobblemon Ball Satchel is a quality-of-life addon for Cobblemon on Minecraft 1.21.1 Fabric.

It adds a dedicated satchel that can store, organize, select, and throw Poké Balls without filling your hotbar or cluttering your inventory.

Features

Dedicated Poké Ball storage

Each Ball Satchel contains 27 internal slots reserved for Poké Balls.

Every satchel keeps its own:

• Stored Poké Balls
• Selected Poké Ball type
• Installed upgrades
• Automatic-storage setting

The contents remain attached to the item when the satchel is moved, dropped, stored in another inventory, or carried between game sessions.

Vanilla-style inventory

Open the satchel to access a Minecraft-style inventory containing:

• 27 Poké Ball slots
• 3 removable upgrade slots
• A compact green or red automatic-storage status bar

The satchel currently being viewed is locked in its inventory slot while the screen is open. This prevents accidental movement, hotbar swaps, offhand swaps, duplication issues, and inventory desynchronization.

Bundle-style inventory interactions

Poké Balls can be inserted directly from the player inventory without opening the satchel.

• Left-click a Poké Ball stack onto the satchel to insert as many as possible.
• Right-click a Poké Ball stack onto the satchel to insert one Poké Ball.
• Hold the satchel with the cursor and click compatible Poké Ball stacks to transfer them directly.
• Use Shift + click inside the satchel inventory for quick transfers.

Only valid Cobblemon Poké Balls are accepted.

Fast Poké Ball selection

Hold the satchel and use Alt + Mouse Wheel to cycle through the Poké Ball types stored inside it.

A compact HUD appears to the right of the hotbar:

• The middle slot remains visible while the satchel is held.
• The middle slot displays the currently selected Poké Ball.
• Scrolling temporarily displays the previous and next available Poké Ball types.
• The stored amount of each displayed Poké Ball type is shown.
• Poké Ball types with no remaining stock are skipped automatically.

Throw Poké Balls directly

While holding the satchel, right-click to throw the currently selected Poké Ball.

The addon uses Cobblemon's own Poké Ball and projectile systems, preserving the selected Ball type and its normal capture behavior.

• In Survival mode, one matching Poké Ball is removed from the satchel after being thrown.
• In Creative mode, the selected Poké Ball is not consumed.

Controls

• Shift + Right Click while holding the satchel: open the satchel inventory.
• Right Click the satchel in an inventory slot with an empty cursor: open the satchel directly from the player inventory.
• Alt + Mouse Wheel while holding the satchel: select another stored Poké Ball type.
• Right Click while holding the satchel: throw the selected Poké Ball.
• Left Click Poké Balls onto the satchel: insert as many as possible.
• Right Click Poké Balls onto the satchel: insert one Poké Ball.

Upgrade system

The satchel includes three removable upgrade slots. Upgrades can be installed, moved between slots, and removed whenever you want.

Automatic Storage Upgrade

The Automatic Storage Upgrade automatically transfers Poké Balls that enter the player's inventory into the satchel.

1. Open the Ball Satchel.
2. Place the Automatic Storage Upgrade into one of the three upgrade slots.
3. Click the small status bar beneath the upgrade slots to enable or disable the effect.

• Green: automatic storage is enabled.
• Red: automatic storage is disabled or no compatible upgrade is installed.

Removing the upgrade immediately disables automatic storage.

When an enabled satchel is full, the addon can try another enabled Ball Satchel in the player's inventory. Poké Balls remain in the normal inventory when no upgraded satchel has enough space.

Addon compatibility

Cobblemon Ball Satchel recognizes Poké Balls through Cobblemon's standard Poké Ball implementation and the official cobblemon:poke_balls item tag.

Compatible Poké Balls added by other Cobblemon addons can therefore be stored, selected, and thrown when they use Cobblemon's standard systems.
