well you can have monopole electric fields
like plucking off an electron from an atom.
only negative electric field, positive part is gone.
so electric monopoles are easy to make

magnetic monopoles are the ones that are thought to not exist.
can't divide a magnet to have only a north or south pole.

if you could you'd make free energy with just an arrangement of magnets on a wheel.
would spin forever.

I have a theory that magnetic monopoles need energy put into them to exist to avoid breaking the second law of thermodynamics. So, an electromagnetic one may be possible. I’ve also heard they did something with an Einstein Bose condensate to make a small one. I hope to make an electromagnetic monopole at least for an experiment

you can make magnetic monopole magnets.
trick is to make your own custom magnet.
