  1. Watch a video guide for port forwarding Minecraft.
  2. Whoever does the port forwarding has to have the server file.
  3. Whoever connects has to have the client file.
  4. Change the port from the video to the one for Pokemon.
  5. Change the IP in the client file to the visible IP of the host.
  6. Make sure the host has a static IP.

I've seen this message but when i go to host the game with the script it request me to make port forwarding but it doesnt work in my router, so my question is can i make host without port forwarding?? EDIT: NEVER MIND THE #17 HAS RESOLVE MY PROBLEM (i use zerotier)

you can't. also check if you got a non DS-Lite connection from your provider, else you must use your public IP via DynDNS Server afaik.

host: local static ip (192.X...), port client: public ip/dyndns address, port

also you have to port forward from/to your local static ip (192.X...) that's how it should work with my understanding.

its ok if my public ip doesnt start with 192???

yes 'cause 192 is always local. your public ip is visible at whatsmyip.com
