New video for Pokémon Pokopia
A special video that offers a glimpse into the world of Pokémon Pokopia has been released on the official Pokémon YouTube channel. Please check out the title: Pokémon Pokopia | Extended Trailer.
A new life from the ground up
In a town where humans and Pokémon once lived, the grass and trees have withered, and even the residents have completely vanished, a peculiar-looking Tangrowth has been living there all alone.
After awakening from a long slumber, a Ditto transforms into a human and meets Tangrowth. Ditto then decides to begin building the town anew by crafting items and learning moves from other Pokémon to grow plants.
Trainers can take their time and work together with a diverse array of Pokémon as they rebuild the town into a place that everyone will love.
Trainers can build a utopia for everyone to live in, little by little.
Spending time in town

Getting settled in
A Trainer’s new life starts in a completely empty place. This is where a cozy adventure begins! Trainers can enjoy nature while allowing themselves to be absorbed in the leisurely passage of time.
- Encounter Pokémon by creating habitats.
- Learn moves from the Pokémon they encounter.
- Craft items and furniture to cultivate comfortable environments.
A myriad of interactions are available with a wide variety of Pokémon.
The Pokémon, who live alongside Trainer, can not only play and go out on adventures but also help build impressive houses and share all sorts of other experiences.
Building the ideal town
At times, Pokémon may have requests for making the town a more comfortable place to live.
Some Pokémon may also come to Trainers with important requests tied to solving large problems within the town. As Trainers fulfill a variety of requests from different Pokémon, they may even find that the town develops before they know it!
Even more ways to have fun
Once Trainers have gotten the hang of town life, they’ll probably want to try making some changes to their style!
Whether it’s changing up their hairstyle and outfit or going out to visit a friend’s town and taking photos of places they’ve created together, they can enjoy a life of their own by playing in a way that’s entirely unique to them.
An introduction to some peculiar Pokémon
Plenty of mysteries still surround these slightly peculiar-looking Pokémon. Trainers can look forward to having new encounters with them!
Have a closer look at some of the slightly peculiar-looking Pokémon in town.
- Professor Tangrowth. A Tangrowth has a partially white body, wearing what appear to be human tools. It teaches Ditto the basics of life in town and is called Professor Tangrowth by other Pokémon.
- Peakychu. A pale Pikachu has fur with a mysterious color. Its drooping ears somehow make it seem a little feeble.
- Mosslax. Moss has grown all over this Snorlax’s body, and it looks like a flower blooming atop its head. It must have been asleep for a really long time.
- Smearguru. A Smeargle has vibrant colors splattered across its body. When it uses its tail as a brush, it almost looks like a painter!
