Like in regular Pokémon games, you can get Legendary Pokémon in the Minecraft mod Cobblemon, such as the Legendary Birds from the first generation, Mewtown, and Rayquaza.
Cobblemon saw its latest major update of 1.6 in December 2025. While it’s still far from including many of Nintendo’s Legendary Pokémon, you’ll still have a lot of exploring to do before you can get them.
Here’s all the Legendary Pokémon you can encounter in Cobblemon Minecraft, along with additional means to add even more Pokémon to the base game.

How to get all Legendary and Mythical Pokémon in Cobblemon
If you download just Cobblemon on its own, you’ll be able to encounter only a handful of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon. Articuno, Moltres, Zapdos, Mew, and Mewtwo are all available in Cobblemon without any additional downloads.
Their spawn locations are as follows:
- Articuno – Four Ice Stones in the Snowy Plains Biome, Ice Spikes, rainy weather.
- Moltres – Four Sun Stones in the Basalt Delta Biome, Badlands Biomes, clear weather during morning to noon.
- Zapdos – Four Thunder Stones, Plateau Biomes, stormy weather.
- Mew – Forest Biome, Jungle Biome, Dark Forest Biome, Faraway Ruin, noon time.
- Mewtwo – Nether Star, Sky Pillar.
Legendary Pokémon are each located in different ancient alters and temples across the Overworld while Mythical Pokémon spawn randomly in the different biomes.
They also have a chance of spawning in their shiny version.
How to add more Legendary or Mythical Pokémon in Cobblemon

The Pokémon we have already mentioned are all available in the base mode of Cobblemon. This does not mean that these are the only Legendary and Mythical Pokémon you can encounter and possibly capture in Cobblemon.
Cobblemon has a thriving and extensive modding community. There are countless mods available to enrich your Cobblemon experience, with the Legendary and Mythical Pokémon modding additions being one such example. We strongly suggest going for any one of these three mods in particular:
- Legendary Encounters (Cobblemon) – Adds 10 Legendary Pokémon
- Myths and Legends [Cobblemon Sidemod] – Adds a feature where key items influences spawn rates
- AllTheMons [Cobblemon Addon] – Adds the most Pokémon in one go
How to install Legendary and Mythical Pokemon add-on mods
Cobblemon can be run on either Fabric or Neoforge, using Minecraft version 1.21.1. Make sure all versions you are running match with one another to avoid errors.
You’ll want to download the mod from its original source. Modrinth is the most commonly used one. Start up either Fabric or CurseForge and locate the resource pack folder on the main menu before running the game. Click on the downloaded file to ensure that the mod is in effect.
We will explain further on how to utilize one of these mods, using the Legendary Encounters mod as an example.
Legendary Encounters – All Legendary Pokémon, their coordinating materials, and their location in Cobblemon
- Xerneas – Galarica Wreath in the Dark Forest Biome, Tree of Life.
- Rayquaza – Dragon Egg in The End Main Island, Sky Pillar.
- Iron Leaves – Dubious Disc in the End Highlands, Tera Dens.
Legendary Encounters adds new questlines, such as when triggering Special Encounters. Once you’ve beaten Rayquaza, you will unlock the Shady Villager. The new NPC sells items that will help progress in your adventure. When interacting with him, you’ll be able to have special encounters with Walking Wake and Iron Leaves.
It will also be able to find unique Legendary Dungeons in the underground part of the Overworld. Once you find a Legendary Dungeon, sacrifice a Totem of Undying to enter. You can only enter them once and summon a Legendary Pokémon to battle a random Legendary you have already encountered.
Summoning these Pokémon to battle will require you to interact with an active beacon while holding the coordinating materials and in the correct biome. You can only summon Legendary Pokémon, though. These seven Legendary and five Mythical Pokémon in Cobblemon will vary in level, ranging from 50 to 100.
Legendary Encounters – All Mythical Pokémon and their locations in Cobblemon
- Meloetta – Warped Forest Biome.
- Victini – Crimson Forest Biome.
- Jirachi – Overworld, anywhere during the night.
- Marshadow – Mangrove Swamp Biome.
Ultra Space
- Poipole – Purple Dimension
Tips before Legendary and Mythical Pokémon hunting
Before you embark on your quest to find all the available Legendary Pokémon, you’ll first need to prepare. We recommend you follow some steps before heading for the Legendary Dungeons if you don’t have any Master Balls:
- Plant apricorn trees. These grant you materials in making Pokéballs.
- Gather gold.
- Craft as many Ultra Balls as possible.
- Get a Pokémon with False Swipe.
Train your Pokémon to level them up and be ready to face these Legendary Pokémon if you can’t get a Pokémon with a False Swipe move. Then get the Legendary Pokémon’s HP as low as possible and throw Pokéballs to catch it.
