Step 2) Download Pixelmon Generations
Now, before we can install Pixelmon Generations, we need to download it. So, let's get started. You can download Pixelmon Generations by clicking here. You will then be taken to the official download page for Pixelmon. On this page, scroll down to see all of the versions of Pixelmon. We recommend downloading the version closest to the top. Just click the orange download button on the right-hand side of the screen next to the most recent version to do this.
When you click the orange download button, you will be taken to MediaFire. On MediaFire, click the big blue ‘Download' button. Pixelmon will the start downloading. You may need to keep/save the file. It is 100% safe!
Step 3) Install Pixelmon Generations
So you've gotten Pixelmon Generations downloaded, but how to do you actually get it installed. Well, this is actually really simple. Just hit the Windows Key on your keyboard and ‘R' at the exact same time. This will open up the ‘Run' program. In the search box type, ‘%appdata%'. This will launch the ‘Roaming' folder on your computer. At the very top of this folder, you will see a program called ‘.minecraft'. Open this folder, and in it, you should have a folder titled ‘mods'. If you don't, just create one!
After you've found or created your ‘mods' folder, installing Pixelmon is easy. Just take it and drag and drop them into this ‘mods' folder. After you've done that, the mods are installed! We aren't quite done yet though. We still need to make sure that we are selecting the right version of Forge.
Step 4) Open The Minecraft Launcher & Select The ‘Forge' Profile
In order to select the correct version of Forge, we need to open up the regular Minecraft launcher that we allow know and love. From here, we can click the green up arrow next to the ‘Play' button. From there, find the profile titled ‘Forge'. Click it, and then, click the big green ‘Play' button. Minecraft should then launch with Forge and Pixelmon Generations installed.
