About Pokémon Pokopia:

Shape the world and build a cozy new life with Pokémon

Play as a Ditto and build a new life with Pokémon—from the ground up! With help from your Pokémon friends, rebuild a desolate world into a charming utopia, one step at a time.

Pokémon and people once lived happily together, but the world has withered and the humans are gone. The only remaining resident is a lone Tangrowth, living alone in the wasteland.

After waking from a long slumber, a peculiar Ditto decides to restore the desolate land using its transformation skills and its surprising new crafting abilities.

Learn the moves of your fellow Pokémon to change the land, travel, and more!

  • Ditto’s vine-like arms dig into the ground and grass springs up.
  • Ditto transforms into a Lapras and surfs across the water.
  • Ditto transforms into a Dragonite and glides through the sky.

Collect and craft: Craft items and furniture, then decorate your space any way you like.

  • Gather materials and craft
  • Grow Crops
  • Make comfy spaces for Pokémon

A little help here!: Some Pokémon might ask for your assistance—helping them out will take you one step closer to a cozy Pokémon utopia.

Some friendly faces:

  • Professor Tangrowth: A vital guide for you and all the Pokémon you meet.
  • Peakychu: An unusually pale Pikachu.
  • Mosslax: Moss has grown all over this Snorlax—how long has it been asleep?!

Transforming the world means evolving the way you play, too!: From updating your hairstyle and outfit to visiting friends and taking photos of your creations together, there are so many ways to enjoy a world built by and for you!

Time for a house-warming party!:
