QuestionWhat items do I put in my playpen?
John W.Community AnswerWell, for starters, you could dig a hole and put a bed down, or give it a slime ball as a chew toy. You could even make a texture pack and turn beef into puppy chow. -
QuestionWhy do I have to wait until night?
Community AnswerBecause zombies only spawn at night. If a zombie is in light, it will burn. -
QuestionAm I supposed to be in survival or creative mode?
Everly ClarkCommunity AnswerYou can be in any mode; however, in survival mode, you'll have to get all the materials needed. -
QuestionCan you spawn a Pikachu in Minecraft?
Weeb_Aesthetics_06Community AnswerIn the original Minecraft, you cannot spawn any other mobs, the ones you can spawn are: Ghast, zombie, pig, cow, chicken, bat, skeletons, rabbits, blaze, wolf, slime, magma cube, and so on. You can download a Pikachu world and see how it is. -
QuestionHow to spawn a crewmate in Minecraft?
Hydra Riding CatcherCommunity AnswerIn Minecraft, there are no "Crewmates". Unless you download an Among Us mod, you won't have any crewmates in the game. -
QuestionDo I drop the flesh and wait for it to pick it up?
Hydra Riding CatcherCommunity AnswerZombies don't eat. They do pick up weapons, so you can throw weapons if you want to. Spawning villagers can be a way to feed it. -
QuestionWouldn't it kill you?
VerinTop AnswererNot if you stay out of its melee range. Also, zombies (all types except drowned) can't use picked up bows or crossbows (instead using them as melee weapons) so you don't need to worry about ranged attacks. For Baby Zombies, either hit them with a Splash Potion of Slowness, or drink a Speed Potion to prevent them from getting too close to you. For Husks, same as the first two, depending on whether its a baby or not. Drowned are mostly like the others, except they have a chance to spawn with a trident. In that case, a shield is highly recommended (unless you're looking to try dodging the whole time). -
QuestionWhat do zombies eat?
VerinTop AnswererWhile Minecraft Zombies don't technically eat anything, an argument could be made that they eat player and villagers (maybe baby turtles too, although they seem more interested in smashing the eggs than eating them). -
QuestionHow to spawn Hulk?
VerinTop AnswererHulk is not a mob that exists in vanilla Minecraft, so you'll need to download a mod that adds Hulk to the game first. After that you could probably use a spawn egg or the /summon command to spawn him in, although it may differ from mod to mod. -
QuestionWhat about doing this in Creative mode, where the pet zombie can do nothing to you?
VerinTop AnswererYou could if you want, but the article is meant to show you what to do in Survival Mode.
Warnings
- Be careful around your pet Zombie, because you can't tame them, and they will try to kill you.Thanks!
