Protein-conditioned 3D molecule generation is a central challenge in structure-based drug design, requiring a balance between pocket compatibility, molecular properties, and physical geometry. We propose \textbf{PocketVE}, a protein-pocket-conditioned variance-exploding (VE) diffusion framework that couples stable coordinate denoising with inference-time property guidance. Specifically, PocketVE combines an EDM-style training and sampling setup for 3D denoising, classifier-free guidance for multi-property steering, and adaptive protein perturbation as a training-time pocket regularizer.On the CrossDocked2020 benchmark under GenBench3D, PocketVE improves Valid$_{3\text{D}}$ from 58.6 to 80.6 and reduces strain energy from 457.4 to 127.9 relative to its guided TAGMol architectural parent; relative to TargetDiff, it attains comparable Valid$_{3\text{D}}$ with lower strain energy (127.9 vs.\ 306.0), while retaining competitive docking and molecular-property scores under moderate guidance. A guidance-scale study shows that moderate guidance gives a favorable balance between target-related objectives and geometric quality, whereas stronger guidance can degrade geometry and distributional fidelity. Pocket-permutation and PoseCheck diagnostics further support pocket-specific spatial compatibility with reduced steric conflicts. Overall, the results suggest that geometric stability and inference-time property guidance should be considered as coupled design objectives.
