[Minecraft Bedrock Edition] How to fix the issue where Shulkers disappear when sent to the Overworld (probably)

What happened

I put the Shulker into the portal, broke the minecart, and sent it to the Overworld.

The cobblestone area is the initial spawn point, but there's no sign of the Shulker...

It's frustrating after all that effort...

Upon investigation, it seems there's a bug where mobs sent from the End to the Overworld are teleported somewhere between Y500 and Y32767 at the initial spawn point.

Reference )[MCPE-159303] Shulkers cannot be transported to the overworld - Jira

Solution (probably)

Place blocks in the End main island portal, **like this cobblestone**.

So that it can be dropped perfectly into the red area.

Drop the Shulker here.

Then, drop 2-3 minecarts there.

I also enter the portal and go to the initial spawn point.

After waiting a few minutes, a Shulker in a minecart appeared!

It felt more like it suddenly appeared rather than falling from above.

The waiting time varies. Sometimes it appears in 1 minute, sometimes not even after 5 minutes.
I also received feedback that 'it appeared after relogging'.

Even without laying rails in the Overworld beforehand, there was no fall damage.

Also, after several attempts, it sometimes **randomly appeared within an 80-block radius** from the initial spawn point.

If it doesn't appear after several minutes, try looking around the initial spawn point.

I apologize for the many uncertain elements, but it seems that **when sending mobs like Shulkers from the End to the Overworld, it might work if you send minecarts along with them**!

  I confirmed success on Bedrock Edition (PC) ver.1.20.60.

  While the bug of being teleported to Y511 at the initial spawn point is still present, after sending a Shulker and multiple minecarts into the End portal, I returned to the initial spawn point and relogged, and the Shulker came falling down in a minecart.

  This is an innovative idea that makes it possible to create Shulker traps in the Overworld.

  I believe it deserves to be spread more widely!

  Thank you for the report!

  I'm honored that it was helpful!

  I will add the part about 'it appeared after relogging' to the article.

  Addendum

  Based on the information I received here the other day, I transported 16 Shulkers in Survival (Peaceful) mode from the End → Overworld (spawn point) → Nether → Overworld (base).

  End → Overworld transfer had a high success rate using almost the described method, with about 2/3 of cases following this pattern: player returns to the Overworld (spawn point) via the End portal → relog → a Shulker in a minecart vertically drops onto the spawn point in about 5 seconds.

  On the other hand, in 1/3 of cases, they appeared with similar behavior even without relogging, but when I put them into a Nether portal to transport them to my base, the Shulker disappeared! In this pattern, I had to retry from a backed-up state before the transfer.

  Simultaneous transfer of multiple entities was also possible, but in those cases, perhaps due to them colliding during the fall, Shulkers appeared scattered within an [80-block radius from the initial spawn point].

  Other than this pattern, I could not confirm situations like [suddenly appearing]

  After transferring to the Overworld, I transported the Shulkers to the Overworld (base) via the Nether portal, but
  

  during Nether → Overworld transfer, the Shulkers were not transferred even when placed inside the portal, and it took a lot of trial and error to finally succeed in some cases.

  Since they are rare mobs, I think it's a bit risky to try Nether portal transfers without a backup.

  If you transport them directly to your base without using a Nether portal, there seems to be no fundamental problem.

  Although it takes effort, the infinite use of Shulker Boxes, which can be completed within the Overworld, is still convenient.

  Thank you.

  Sorry for the long post.

  Thank you for the additional report!

  To summarize,

  ・Generally, the method in the article works, but it still contains uncertain elements

  ・Moving them via the Nether after Overworld transfer is also risky

  That's about it, I suppose.

  This motivates me to write such articles! Thank you!

  I tried to transport Shulkers to the Overworld using this method in Bedrock Edition (iPad) ver.1.20.60 Creative mode as a test.

  However, they didn't appear easily.

  So, I tried naming them in the End, sending them to the Overworld, and then teleporting myself there to check their location. For some reason, all the Shulkers were under the bedrock.

  This was the same every time I tried.

  Since the first commenter succeeded with the same version, I don't think there's a problem with the method itself.

  The only difference was that it was in Creative mode.

  Perhaps the specifications for going from the End to the Overworld differ between Creative and Survival modes.

  This is just my personal speculation and uncertain, but I'm reporting it just in case.
