Ender pearls now chunkload. See the changelog.
Ender Pearls
Ender pearls create a chunkloading ticket when they enter a new chunk and every 2 seconds when the pearl stays in the same chunk. The ticket loads a single entity-ticking chunk, a 3x3 square of redstone processing chunks (also known as block-ticking chunks), and a 5x5 square of lazy chunks (also known as border chunks). The chunkloading ticket times out after 2 seconds.

The explosion_power tag is the base power (usually 4) of the explosion. The game adds a random bonus based on velocity to the base to get the final explosion power. This change fixes MC-276263.
