The Pokemon Company today outlined a number of fixes that are currently planned for Pokemon Pokopia.
There are several known issues that will be addressed with a patch. Additionally, a couple of small improvements are planned that will be included in the same update.
You can get the full details below. Note that the information is currently only available in Japanese and this is a rough machine translation.
According to them, a future update is currently being prepared to address these problems. Some of the confirmed issues include characters becoming stuck or events failing to trigger in specific requests across areas like Withered Wasteland, Bleak Beach, and Rocky Ridges. These problems can block quest progress if certain actions are taken beforehand, such as destroying key objects or triggering events in an unintended order.
Known Issues
- When requesting “Let’s build a home!” in “Withered Wasteland,” Squirtle moves up a tree and cannot be spoken to, preventing the request from progressing.
- In the “Bleak Beach” request “Find a Pokémon Center!”, if you destroy the cracked blocks on the bridge before Tangrowth crosses it, it will be difficult to progress with the request.
- When performing the “Find a Pokémon Center!” request in “Bleak Beach,” if you follow certain steps, the event to repair the bridge in “Tangrowth” will not occur, and you will not be able to progress with the request.
- In “Rocky Ridges,” if you follow certain steps, the event where you encounter “Rotom” will no longer occur.
- When the request “Let’s clean up the roads!” in “Rocky Ridges” occurs under certain circumstances, it becomes difficult to progress with the request.
- The type of Spinarak in the Pokédex is incorrect.
Improvements Planned
- In the “Withered Wasteland” request “Break the rocks with a Rock Smasher!”, if you place another block in the position of the cracked block near the “Crab Growl”, it will be difficult to understand how to proceed.
- In the “Bleak Beach” request “Take the Professor with you!”, if you place another block in the position of the cracked block near “Snorlax”, it will be difficult to understand how to progress.
Pokemon Pokopia is out now on Nintendo Switch 2. As was just announced, the game has already sold over 2.2 million copies.
