Joining Arcadia

How to install, launch, and step into Arc Two, the Arcbound Cobblemon world.

getting-startedarcadiacobblemon

Arc Two is Arcadia, the Arcbound Cobblemon adventure. You catch and battle Pokemon, climb a seven-gym ladder, earn mega evolution and legendaries through gameplay, and explore worlds beyond the starting region. This page gets you in.

Install the launcher

Everything runs through the free Arcbound launcher. It installs the right Minecraft version, every mod, and all resource packs automatically, then keeps them updated forever. You never manage mods by hand.

  1. Download the launcher from the download page.
  2. Sign in with your Microsoft (Minecraft: Java Edition) account.
  3. Pick the Arc Two: Arcadia profile.
  4. Press play. The launcher downloads the pack the first time, then launches you straight to the server.

Two arcs, one launcher

Arc One (Jujutsu Kaisen) and Arc Two (Arcadia) are different modpacks. Switch between them any time in the launcher. Your account, ranks that work network-wide, and cosmetics carry across both.

Your first moments

When you spawn in, you will:

  • Pick your starter. On your very first join you choose from the classic first partners. Your starter arrives at a low level so the whole journey is ahead of you.
  • Grab your join kit. You start with a pair of Running Shoes (so you move at a real pace) and a PokeNav, handed to you automatically.
  • Follow the guide. Mossgrove is where every journey begins. /guide and /journey always point you at your next objective, so you are never left wondering what to do.
  • Start catching. Throw Poke Balls at wild Pokemon in the tall grass. Every catch earns you Grit, the currency you spend on balls, gear, and upgrades, and counts toward your total catches.

Finding your way

Each town greets you with a region title card naming where you are. Entering a town that way unlocks it in /travel, the fast-travel map, so you can jump straight back any time. Discover the region on foot once, then let /travel carry you.

Controls

A handful of keys open everything Arcadia adds. The launcher sets these for you on first install (it only moves binds still on their broken defaults, so your own customizations are respected):
