✨ ShinyShift – Shiny Altar System for Cobblemon

ShinyShift introduces a structured, progression-based shiny system designed for Cobblemon survival and multiplayer environments.

The mod transforms shiny conversion into a deliberate altar ritual rather than a simple item interaction.

Shiny Pokémon remain rare, meaningful, and server-balanced.

💎 Core Mechanic – Shiny Altar Ritual

The old direct-use mechanic has been removed.

Players must now:

  1. Build the Shiny Altar structure
  2. Place the required blocks correctly
  3. Position the Pokémon inside the altar area
  4. Hold the Shiny Exchange Gem
  5. Right-click to activate

🏗 Shiny Altar Structure

The altar must be constructed exactly as designed.

It contains:

  • Shiny Stone Block (center zone)
  • Thunder Stone Block (activation layer)
  • Multi-layer structure requirement

Players must follow the structure layout precisely for activation to work.


⚙ Activation Rules

Behavior

If the Pokémon is recalled mid-process
→ The gem is not consumed

🔥 Recipe & Balance Changes

  • The Nether Star recipe has been removed in 2.0.0
  • The Shulker Shell recipe has been removed in 2.0.0

- Designed for late game balance

🧩 Current Crafting Recipe – Shiny Exchange Gem

The Shiny Exchange Gem now follows the updated altar-based progression design.

Crafting Layout

Shiny Altar

  • Sea Lantern
  • Shiny Stone Block
  • Glowstone
  • Nether Star
  • Netherite Block
  • Glow Ink Sac

Structure Pattern

The recipe follows a layered pattern:

Top Layer
Sea Lantern – Shiny Stone Block – Glowstone

Middle Layer
Glow Ink Sac – Netherite Block – Glow Ink Sac

Bottom Layer
Empty – Shiny Stone Block – Empty

(Refer to the crafting preview image above.)

This recipe reflects the late game balance philosophy of ShinyShift.

For testing purposes, you can use a Structure Block to load the altar template directly.

You may:

  • Obtain a Structure Block
