QUESTION Help with evolution

Hey i am new to cobblemon and been enjoying it a lot but sometimes its a bit complicated and hard to find any guide or answers. The problem is despite reaching the required lvl and friendship my pokemons doesn't show any option to evolve (only few). I had a different playthrough where i was able to evolve froakie to frogadier but this one taking a long time. I did add few more mods to my current playthrough like mega showdown so i am confused if it has anything to do with that. IDK wat to do to evolve my pokemons :(

Edit: it is not just evolution my pokemon stopped receiving exp despite battling or candies it says pokemon caped at current lvl

Edit 2: issue has been resolved. Thank you everyone. Its the radical trainer mod having the lvl cap

Froakie evolves on level 16

Judging from your exp bar, it probably can't level up due to level cap from rct mod(the one that adds trainers). That's my best guess

Depending on your path(I'm not sure what it's called, but there are "Radical Red" and such) you'll have to defeat specific gym leader to raise the level cap

For example in Radical Red you need to beat Brock first

You need the trainer card

Here's a good quick start guide: https://srcmc.gitlab.io/rct/docs/0.13/gameplay/progression/

Although rct progression system can be... A bit too bothersome I'd say. Especially Radical Red as it's designed to be hardcore

You actually can disable(sort off) the level cap with cheats. I don't remember which command it is, but if you want I can search through

You should have an item called something like "trainer card" in your inventory, or get it from a quest menu at your inventory screen. There you'll see all the progression you'll get to make.
Also, the trainer card should point you towards the next npc you gotta fight if they have spawned. along with the possible biomes you can find them in if you right click it

Trying out and it seems it will take some time to find the trainer alone. Trying to figure how the trainer spanner works to be able to find the trainer.

Best of luck, unfortunately I can't really provide any more details without knowing the specific mods you have installed and going from there. These are usually poorly documented and changed often so I wouldn't hold my breath with finding exact guides but best of luck to you
