Minecraft Entity List (Java Edition 1.20)
In Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.20, each entity has a unique entity value assigned to it. These entity values are used in /summon and /data commands.
Traditionally an entity is a mob which is a living creature that moves around in the game. This is true in most cases. However, there are a handful of entities that are items with data tags you can change in the game such as an armor stand or a painting.
