How to Make a Pixelmon Modpack Server (1.16.5 to 1.21.1)
The Pixelmon Modpack needs a modded server. On Chunkly that is a Kingdom plan, and the pack installs from the panel in a few clicks. This page covers the loader, the RAM to start with, the install steps and how friends join.
What Pixelmon needs
The Pixelmon Modpack bundles the Pixelmon mod with its soundtrack, JourneyMap, Oh The Biomes You'll Go and Nature's and Explorer's Compass. It has builds for several Minecraft versions, from 1.16.5 to 1.21.1.
Loader: Forge or NeoForge (depends on the version). Minecraft: 1.16.5 to 1.21.1. Source: Modrinth. Mod loaders only run on Kingdom plans; Campfire and Village cannot run any mods.
How much RAM
Pixelmon spawns many creatures around every player, so give a group more room than a Vanilla world.
Our starting point: Kingdom 6 GB (€11.40 a month) for a small group, and Kingdom 8 GB (€15.20 a month) for a bigger group or an older world. If the pack's own page lists a server RAM figure, follow that instead.
If the panel warns that the world is running out of memory, use Upgrade plan on the Overview. The world, files and address stay the same, and the extra RAM applies after the next restart. See the RAM guide.
Install Pixelmon on Chunkly
- Create a Kingdom world, or open an existing one.
- Go to Mods and pick the Modpacks tab.
- Search for Pixelmon, or paste its link:
https://modrinth.com/modpack/the-pixelmon-modpack. - Click Use this pack, then Apply to server and confirm. Your world folder stays on disk.
- Wait. The first start of a large pack often takes 10 to 30 minutes and can restart once. Do not press Restart while it says Starting.
Get your friends in
Every player needs the same Pixelmon version on their own game, or the server refuses them with an incompatible mod list.
On the Mods page, Copy friend link gives friends a page with the install steps and the join address. Download for your game gives a ZIP of every mod for any launcher. Players using the Modrinth App or Prism can install the pack from there instead.
Friends join with your address, like name.play.chunkly.net, with no port.
Good to know
Each Pixelmon build targets one Minecraft version. Check which one your friends have before you install. The panel sets the matching loader.
Modded worlds sleep only after two days with nobody online, because they are slow to boot. Make a backup on Backups with Create backup before every pack update.
Server crashing on start? See mods not loading. Full install guide: how to install a modpack.
