# Pokéheim - A Valheim Mod by Joey Parrish



Source: https://github.com/joeyparrish/pokeheim



> Long ago, the Allfather Odin created the monsters.  No one knows why he did

> this.  Some say he was probably drunk.  Others say he was **surely** drunk.

> In any case, he eventually crammed them all onto a weird, flat planet and

> lost the keys.

>

> For centuries, he actually forgot all about this planet.  The monsters

> enjoyed their world, free from the gods.

>

> When Odin finally remembered the whole monster thing, he decided that

> something had to be done to catch 'em...  all of 'em.  But Odin's always been

> more of an "idea man", so he sent Professor Raven to kidnap you and make

> **you** do it.

>

> He says you "gotta"...

## About Pokéheim



Pokéheim is a completely different experience than Valheim.  You don't build

houses, you don't progress through technological stages, and your weapons and

armor don't matter.  You build Pokéballs from rocks and use them to capture

monsters.  Your monsters will then fight other monsters for you, until you've

amassed an army big enough to take on the bosses.



**_We recommend starting with a fresh character and world._**  If you don't,

please make a backup of anything you care about.  It will probably be fine, but

better safe than sorry.



### Preview Videos

### V2 Changes



 - Numerous multiplayer sync issues fixed, including "return" button, cloned monsters, missing sounds, missing balls, and bogus messages

 - Fixed various issues with Odin in the multiplayer ending, including an infinite "Odin loop"

 - Monster AI will now prioritize attacking enemies over following you

 - Pokeballs are now more accurate

 - Increased zoom out distance while riding

 - While riding Moder, she can now be commanded to both walk and fly

 - Saddled monsters wait for commands instead of acting on their own

 - Fixed attacking while riding

 - Replaced "level" system (1-star, 2-star) with "shiny" monsters

 - Fixed vanishing saddles when calling monsters to return

 - Fixed getting stuck riding a deathsquito when it faints

 - Useless (for Pokeheim) items are now suppressed in pickables, drops and dungeons

 - You can change clothes with a "style" button in the inventory, without visiting the Wardrobe

 - Fainted skeletons no longer count against spawners

 - Wardrobe now respects DLC restrictions

 - Improved styling on Giovanni's Persian



### Dependencies



 - [MountUp](https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1091), v3.2.9 - We borrow

     the generic saddle prefab from this mod, and disable the rest.  We have

     our own mounting, saddle placement, and riding system in Pokéheim.

 - [Jötunn](https://valheim-modding.github.io/Jotunn/), v2.7.2+ - The framework

     on which Pokéheim is built.

 - [BepInEx](https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/denikson/BepInExPack_Valheim/),

     v5.4+ - The framework on which Jötunn is built.



### Compatibility



 - Any mod adding monsters to Valheim should work just fine with Pokéheim.

   Pokéheim discovers all monster at runtime.  New monsters will be capturable,

   will be listed in the Pokédex, and will count toward completion of the game,

   but will not be rideable.



 - Any mod adding armor to Valheim should also work with Pokéheim.  Pokéheim

   discovers all armor at runtime.  New armor will show up in the style dialog

   and in the wardrobe.  Might we recommend [CustomWigs](https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1236)?



 - Any mod that adds new resources or recipes to Valheim will be non-functional

   with Pokéheim, but Pokéheim is unlikely to be harmed by it.



 - Pokéheim is **NOT** compatible with [AllTameable](https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/478).

   Pokéheim has its own way of making monsters Tameable (by capturing them), so

   you should not use it with AllTameable.



 - The [Pacifist](https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1479) mod interferes

   with the "fainting" system in Pokéheim by disabling Ragdolls.



### Multiplayer



The server and all players must be using the mod, and everyone must use the

same version of the mod.
