Minecraft basics

Short course for trainers who never played vanilla Minecraft — just enough to not get stuck crafting tools or farms.

    Tool progression

    Wood → Stone → Iron → Diamond → Netherite

    Same shapes, better materials. A stone pickaxe is the minimum to reach copper/iron reliably.

    Wheat → emeralds → PokéDollars

    Wheat farm and villager trading
    Farm to cash. Grow wheat, trade a Farmer villager for emeralds, sell emeralds at the Bank.

    1. Break grass until you get seeds.
    2. Craft a hoe; till dirt within 4 blocks of water (farmland).
    3. Do not trample crops by jumping on them.
    4. Harvest → trade with a Farmer → sell emeralds at the Bank.
    5. Buy balls/heals or craft them yourself.
