About

What does this config do?

The main.json config is used by the client to control a broad group of which Pokemon get alerted (e.g. legendaries). It also contains any other miscellaneous settings, such as enabling debugging of alerts.

For alerting Pokemon by specific name or dex number, see pokemon.json.

Config options

Option	Description
configVersion	DO NOT EDIT. Self-updating mod version - used to notify of important changes when updating the mod.
debug	Enables debug messages in chat when an alert attempts to trigger.
multiplayerWarning	Shows a warning message in chat when joining a server.
enableAlerts	Enables all alerts, excluding despawns.
enableDespawnAlerts	Enables alert messages for when an alerted Pokemon despawns. Limited to Pokemon which have been globally alerted, thus requiring the mod to be on the server.
enableSounds	Enables all custom sounds defined for the alerts. For dertails on adding your own sounds, click here.
alertAllShinies	Alerts when any shiny spawns, unless alertShiny is disabled in its config.
alertAllHA	Alerts when any Pokemon with a hidden ability spawns, unless alertHiddenAbility is disabled in its config.
alertAllLegendaries	Alerts when any Legendary Pokemon spawns.
alertAllMythicals	Alerts when any Mythical Pokemon spawns.
alertAllUltraBeasts	Alerts when any Ultra Beast Pokemon spawns.
alertAllParadox	Alerts when any Paradox Pokemon spawns.
alertAllStarter	Alerts when any starter Pokemon spawns.
alertAllNotInDex	Alerts when any Pokemon which is not already registered in your Pokedex spawns.
alertAllUncaught	Alerts when any uncaught Pokemon spawns.
alertEverything	Alerts every Pokemon that spawns. Useful for debugging.
bucketsToAlert	A list of buckets to alert spawns from. E.g. "ULTRA_RARE", "RARE". Requires the server to broadcast the bucket to clients.
Level filter	Specifies min and max Pokemon levels for triggering alerts.
Distance filter	Specifies min and max distance (in blocks) to the Pokemon for triggering alerts.

Important

When something like alertAllLegendaries is enabled, it does not necessarily mean all legendaries across the entire server. If the server you're on does not have CSA installed, or has disabled global alerts for that group of Pokemon, then alerts will be limited to entities in your client's tracking range.

Level & Distance filters apply to all configs in pokemon.json.

IV & EV hunting

info

IV hunting:
requireAllMinimumsMet: Requires all the specified minimum stats to be met for an alert to trigger. For example, say minHp and minAtk are both set to 20, and a Pokemon spawns with 25 hp but only 10 atk. If this is enabled, then an alert will NOT trigger, since both conditions aren't met. If this is disabled, however, an alert will trigger since at least one of the conditions is met.
minPerfectIVs: Requires at least x perfect IVs (a perfect IV is 31) to trigger an alert.

EV hunting does not have the same level of control since it is intended to be used for EV training. If any of the min conditions are met, it will trigger an alert.

Any value set to 0 will be ignored when determining whether to alert.
