This datapack adds back a way to get Zygarde Cells and Cores in Pixelmon 1.16.5, by adding a small chance of them dropping while killing any pokemon in the wild.
Warning: This datapack needs to be updated constantly for optimal compatibility for new pokemon. Please only use the version that corresponds to the pixelmon version you're using, if it isn't available use the latest version that does not go over your current one.
Download Zygarde Cell Fix for 1.16.5
Download Zygarde Cell Fix for 1.20.2
If the datapack doesn't work with 1.20.2, please try unpacking it and restarting the server.
To install, just put the zip file in the "datapack" folder of your world, installing it on a server applies the changes globally on every player's client without any action needed on their side.
Want a version with your own, custom chances? DM me @ rafikhd on discord (Join .gg/pixelmon before doing so)
Feel free to use this datapack in any modpack, crediting is not required, but appreciated!

Warning: This datapack will probably break if you're using other datapacks that edit pokemon drops.
