How to get Ash Greninja in Cobblemon

Ash Greninja is not in the base version of Minecrafts Cobblemon mod, but players can add it to the game by installing a mod called Cobblemon: Mega Showdown. This mod unlocks the ability of regular Greninja to transform into Ash Greninja with the unique Battle Bond ability by using an item called Ash Cap.

In addition to Mega Showdown, players will also need to install the Radical Cobblemon Trainer mod to make this work. This is because Ash Greninja's signature ability, Battle Bond, only has an effect in trainer battles, which can only be added to Cobblemon with the RCT mod.

To get an Ash-Greninja in Cobblemon: Mega Showdown, you need to get a Greninja, increase its friendship to 250 (max level), create an Ash Cap and use it on Greninja by right-clicking.

Step #1: Get a Greninja

You can get a Greninja in Cobblemon by choosing Froakie as a starter and evolving it or by catching a Froakie, Frogadier or Greninja directly in the wild. All three of these Pokémon are extremely rare spawns in the Bamboo, Freshwater, and Jungle biomes.

Step #2: Increase Greninja's Friendship

You can increase Greninja's friendship in Cobblemon by leveling up, walking, winning Pokemon battles, or using friendship-boosting berries (Tamato, Qualot, Pomeg, Kelpsy, Hondew, and Grepa). You can increase the friendship gain rate by giving Greninjan a Soothe Bell Held item or by trapping it in a luxury ball.

You can check Greninja's friendship by opening the Pokemon status screen, going to the third tab and clicking “Other”.

Step #3: Get ashtrays

Ashtrays can be made with red wool, green wool and white wool according to the following recipe:

Step #4: Give Ash Cap to Greninja

Equip Ash Cap in your hotbar, drop Greninja from the Poke Ball and right click on it. A large number of red hearts will appear around the Pokémon's sprite, signaling that the conversion was successful. If the red hearts do not appear, it means that Greninjan's friendship level is too low.

To confirm that Greninja is now an Ash Greninja, open the Pokemon's status screen and take a look at its ability. It should now say Battle Bond.

Step #5: Activate Ash Greninja

Enter a battle against a trainer with multiple Pokémon and defeat the first Pokémon with Greninja. When the trainer sends out the second Pokemon, Greninja will transform into Ash Greninja, its stats will get a boost, and its Water Shuriken move will become more powerful.

If Greninja's friendship was below 250 when Ash Cap was usedit will gain the Battle Bond ability, but it will not transform into Ash Greninja during battle.

If Greninja's friendship was at 250 when the ashtray was usedit will gain the Battle Bond ability, and it will also transform into Ash Greninja during battle.

How to get ashtrays in Cobbleverse

In Cobbleverse (one of the most popular modpacks for Cobblemon), you cannot directly craft the Ash Cap item to get Ash Greninja. Instead, you must find and fight Ash Ketchum, who will drop the ashtray upon defeat.

To find Ash's home, you need to create an ash key, a blank map, and a cartography table.

Once you have all three items, place the Kanto Cartography Table on the ground and right click on it. Place the blank map in the left slot and the Ash Key in the middle slot. After a short progress window, an ash map appears in the output window. This map shows the location of Ash's house within 10,000 blocks.

Alternatively, you can use the Battle Seeker in the third slot of the Kanto Cartography Table when creating the ash map to increase the map's range from 10,000 to 25,000 blocks, making the location much easier to find.

Alternatively, you can also write /locate structure cobbleverse:ash in the command menu to directly get the coordinates of Ash's house.

When you find Ash, defeat him in battle, and he will drop the ashtray on the ground. Make sure you have at least 4-5 badges under your belt before fighting him, because in our game he had a whole team of level 40 Pokemon with optimized moves and excellent stats.

If you don't see the Ash Cap next to Ash after defeating him, check his room, as this item sometimes appears on his bed instead.
