Your First Steps on PixelMongo
On first login, an interactive tutorial starts automatically. It covers building your island, catching your first Pokémon and understanding the server's economy and rules.
Building Your First Island
PixelMongo blends SkyBlock with Cobblemon. You begin on a small island and expand it. Farmcoins — the server currency — let you buy resources, Poké Balls and upgrades from the in-game shop.
Catching Your First Pokémon
Pokémon spawn naturally across all biomes around your island. Craft Poké Balls from iron and buttons, or buy them from the shop. Good starters include Rattata, Pidgey and Piplup.
