Pixelmon installation

The Minecraft launcher profile editor. Sections and buttons that are important for installing Forge and Pixelmon are outlined in blue.
  1. Download the latest version of the Pixelmon Mod.
    • Note: If the mod's file size is below 400MB, it may be corrupt. If this happens, try again.
  2. Open the Minecraft launcher.
  3. Click the "Installations" tab on the header bar of the launcher.
  4. Click the profile that you installed Forge into.
  5. Find the text box labeled "Game directory", and click the green arrow to the right of it.
    • Note: You can also navigate to the shown path using something like File Explorer or Finder.
  6. In the game directory, look for a folder named mods. Forge should have created one.
    • Note: If no mods folder is present, refresh your view (try the F5 key). If that fails, create one.
  7. Place the downloaded Pixelmon file inside the mods folder.
    • Warning: Do not extract or otherwise edit the downloaded .jar file. Copy it in directly.
  8. Save your profile.
  9. Click on the "Play" Tab. Start the game.
  10. Check the "Mods" section on the main menu. If Pixelmon is listed here, it was installed correctly. Have fun!
