An unobtainable block in Minecraft is any block that cannot be obtained without commands.
Some blocks, like Bedrock or End Portal Frames, cannot be obtained in Survival. However, they can be spawned through the Creative menu. These blocks are not considered unobtainable blocks since they can be found in the Creative menu.
Through commands, players have access to a multitude of blocks that can be useful for custom maps or servers.
