How to join a Cobblemon server (step by step)

Updated 2026-08-22

Joining a Cobblemon server takes about five minutes if you have Minecraft Java Edition. Here is the whole flow.

1. Install the client

Cobblemon servers are modded, so a vanilla client cannot connect. Install the server's modpack (best) or a matching Cobblemon + Fabric setup. Full walkthrough: how to install Cobblemon.

2. Add the server address

In game, go to Multiplayer, Add Server, and paste the address from the server's listing. For example, TalonMC is play.talonmc.net. Addresses for every server we track are on the list, with a copy button.

3. First login

Most servers start you with a starter Pokemon pick and a spawn hub. From there the usual early loop is: catch a few low level Pokemon near spawn, craft Poke Balls from apricorns, and start whatever progression the server runs, like quests, jobs or gym challenges.

4. Learn the server's systems

Good servers layer their own content on top of Cobblemon. On TalonMC for example you get gym progression, legendary monuments, dungeon runs, PokeHunts and a full player economy. Check the server's Discord for guides; it is always linked from their page here.

5. Vote for rewards

Most servers grant in game rewards when you vote for them on server lists. You can vote for TalonMC right here once every 6 hours; be online in game when you vote and the rewards land instantly.
