How to Use the Summon Command in Minecraft ?

Updated: Mar 7, 2022

You can summon an entity (or mob) whenever you want using the /summon command in Minecraft.




 

Summon Command in Minecraft Pocket Edition (PE)

In Minecraft Pocket Edition (PE) 1.16 and 1.17, the syntax to summon an entity (or mob) is:

/summon <entityType> [spawnPos] [spawnEvent] [nameTag]
/summon <entityType> <nameTag> [spawnPos]

In Minecraft Pocket Edition (PE) 1.12, 1.13 and 1.14, the syntax to summon an entity (or mob) is:

/summon <entityType> [spawnPos] [spawnEvent]

In Minecraft Pocket Edition (PE) 1.11.4 and older, the syntax to summon an entity (or mob) is:

/summon <entityType> [spawnPos]

Definitions

  • entityType is the name of the entity to summon. (See Minecraft Entities).

  • spawnPos is optional (starting in version 1.0). It is the x y z coordinate where the entity should spawn. If no coordinate is specified, the entity will spawn in the current location.

  • spawnEvent is optional. It is the name of a game event for the entity. (See Spawn Events).

  • nameTag is the custom name to assign to the entity. It will appear as a nametag above the entity.


 

Example in Pocket Edition (PE)

To summon a llama in Minecraft Pocket Edition (PE):

/summon llama

To summon a lightning bolt:

/summon lightning_bolt
