Pokémon Pokopia event schedule

Pokémon Pokopia event schedule

Pokémon Pokopia features limited-time events that offer special items, decorations and recruitable Pokémon. Each event runs on set dates, although changing the system clock on Nintendo Switch 2 can provide access outside the normal window.

The known schedule includes eight event types, with Bulbasaur’s jump rope contest appearing twice. Some events are short minigames, while others ask players to help an event Pokémon gather materials in exchange for unique furniture and décor.

How event timing works

In the Nintendo Switch 2 settings, you can adjust the system clock to reach an event. A new day begins at 5 a.m., so the clock must be set beyond that time on the event’s starting date. Events finish at 4:59 a.m. on the listed end date.

Most event items can also be reproduced using the 3D printer found in Pokémon Centres. If you are building a dedicated gaming setup for creature-collecting games, browse RETROCADE’s arcade blog or compare options in the arcade machine buying guide.
