Just like @Smaller yellow ant said on the subreddit, you have a significant amount of your CPU time being used on your Datapacks. Most newbie Minecraft server admins think datapacks are free, when in actuality they are orders of magnitude less performant than mods.
You have a LARGE number of datapacks (first image), and the Spark report clearly points directly to them as the cause of the lag (second image).
Your solution is to attempt to narrow down the specific cause by removing the datapacks in sections until you find the one(s) that cause this lag.

To be more specific, something is constantly checking if all online players can have recipes added to their recipe book, and then adding recipes. So your hint is something that adds recipes, probably related to your Cobblemon datapacks.

WHO HATH SUMMONED ME!??
But, yeah, pretty much writing NBT is uh, 60% of your overall tick time.
That's bad
If you're handy with a debugger, you could just add logging onto those calls to work out why

I wish I was. Only barely learned how to start a minecraft server up. But you guys helped me learn some things very thankful.

Easiest way for a newbie to start off with tracking this down is by simply reading the datapack descriptions.
Do they talk about adding recipes? That's probably one of the ones at fault.
Once you build a list, back up anything with valuable player data (like world files, as datapacks can get pretty embedded into world data), and then generate a clean world. Next, do what's called a binary search. Take half of the datapacks out, start your fresh world for the first time, then run your Spark report again and compare results. If the results are still laggy, then your culprit is in the half of the datapacks you left behind. If it's not, it's in the half that you removed. So put whichever half is responsible in, clean world again, and take half of THAT group, repeating the process. This method is faster than checking one by one for any number over like 5 or 6.
