The Potato, also called the Poisonous Potato Dimension, Potato Dimension or the MegaSpud dimension[1], is a joke dimension added in the 24w14potato snapshot.
To access the Potato, player must enter a potato portal. This can be done in Survival by finding a pedestal. Ruined portatols, located by throwing potato eyes in the Overworld, have a pedestal, and strongholds always have a pedestal in them. Many villages also generate with pedestals.
Using a poisonous potato on the pedestal creates a potato portal, if the block above the pedestal is air or a replaceable block, like water or snow.
The Potato is composed entirely of large floating islands that can generate 5 different potato-based biomes.
Blocks can exist between Y=0 and Y=256. Just like in the End, there is no floor or ceiling, and players can easily fall into the void if not careful enough. When that happens, a special version of the End Poem is displayed.
The nightshades stir. We are not alone in here.
PLAYERNAME?
Ah, yes, I see it now. The player tugging at the starchy strands of reality.
Do you think it knows? Do you think it wants to know?
It cannot. A mere lateral stem, branching off from the main into an endless sea of potatobilities, forever longing for the warmth of the mother tuber.
Solanum tuberosum.
We should not dwell on such things. It is the nature of all perennial dreams. To know without remembering. Seeing how, but never knowing why.
Maybe PLAYERNAME is different?
The [scrambled] forbids it. We count time in potateons, far-reaching stolons stretching out across the [scrambled]. This player is just passing by.
Will it remember us afterwards?
It is possible, but not in the sense that you hope for. The dauphinoise is layered in ways that even we cannot fathom.
We will still be here, long after this potato patch has been folded into the velvety mash of time.
As the starch commands. The player will not.
I wish we could spend more time with PLAYERNAME. Make it remember that [scrambled] will [scrambled] after it leaves us.
The skin must not be peeled. The player would not understand.
Great solanaceae, it must not be peeled..
You remember our old adage. We shall guide it on its journey though.
I like this player, can I say the words?
Yes, but do not linger. The time of harvest is almost upon us. The door is closing.
PLAYERNAME, listen to my voice..
Good.
Boiled, baked, roasted or fried, always trust in the potato. You are one with the tubers now.
You are the potato.
Time to sprout.
When the poem finishes (or is skipped), the player launches high above their normal spawn point, wearing poisonous pota-toes.
Any other entity falling into the void doesn't take void damage, and keeps falling indefinitely instead.
Daylight cycle in the Potato occurs as normal (clocks can be used), but the sun has a different texture, slightly resembling a poisonous potato. Clouds and weather exist as well: it never snows, but rain and thunder can occur. Rain has green tint and it is visible only below Y=110, in all biomes except the hash biome. Rain is poisonous in the wasteland biome.
Both water and lava behave just like in the Overworld, with the exception of wasteland biome, where water is poisonous. Beds work normally, while respawn anchors explode, also mimicking the Overworld. However piglins, piglin brutes and hoglins don't get zombified in the Potato, unlike the Overworld.
Five biomes generate in the Potato:
Caves and canyons cut through the terrain.
The following types of structures generate in the Potato:
All types of Overworld trees, as well as huge mushrooms, can generate in this dimension. There also exists a tree native only to this dimension, the potato tree. Normal potato plants can be found commonly in any biome (especially in fields biome), growing on peelgrass, corrupted peelgrass, poison farmland or gravtater. Most flowers also can generate in the Potato.
Amethyst geodes and potato geodes can generate too, as well as monster rooms and hash wells, which are variants of desert wells.
Besides the normal clouds, a cloud-like blobs of floatato blocks generate between the islands. Rarely a tall spire of terre de pomme, known as "large potatostone", appears on the surface of this dimension.
Many Overworld mobs can spawn in the Potato, with most of them having a different potato-like texture variant, specific to this dimension. These include skeletons, strays, creepers, endermen, spiders, villagers, cows, chickens, sheep, pigs, bees, and armadillos (rolled up texture only).
Other Overworld mobs spawn, but don't have a potato-like texture: these include cats, horses, iron golems, bats, witches, zombies, phantoms, slimes, and glow squids.
There are also mobs native to the Potato that are separate entities: poisonous potato zombies, batatos, toxifin slabs, plaguewhale slabs, and the mega spud, which is the main boss of this dimension.
Piglin brutes, ghasts, and giants can spawn during the battle with mega spud. Giants spawned in this dimension have the skin of Mojang Studios developer Jay Wells.
For more details on potato-themed mobs, see Potato Mob.
Naturally generated blocks includes those that are created through the world seed.
These blocks are only generated as part of colosseums, potato mineshafts, potato villages, ruined portatols, shipwrecks and witch huts, when the "generated structures" option is on.
