The relaxing life sim Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia<\/a> has got off to a tremendous start, with The Pok\u00e9mon Company yesterday reporting the game’s sales had already surpassed 2.2 million units globally in just four days.<\/p>\n

With the launch patch out of the way, the development team has now announced the next update will be arriving soon. Based on a rough<\/em> machine translation from Pokopia’s Japanese website, the main takeaway here is that this next update will address multiple issues, including progression bugs. The team also has some improvements planned to deal with certain other issues.<\/p>\n

Here are the details, and we’ll provide an update if English patch notes are shared.<\/p>\n

Thank you for always enjoying the Nintendo Switch 2 software Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia. We plan to address the following issues.<\/em><\/p>\n

Confirmed Bugs<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

– In the request \u201cLet’s Build a Home!\u201d in \u201cDry and Dust-Covered Town,\u201d Squirtle moves onto a tree and becomes unapproachable, preventing progress on the request.<\/em><\/p>\n

– In the request \u201cLet’s Find the Pok\u00e9mon Center!\u201d in Cloudy Seaside Town, if you break the cracked bridge blocks before Munchlax crosses the bridge, it becomes difficult to progress the request.<\/em><\/p>\n

– In the request \u201cLet’s Find the Pok\u00e9mon Center!\u201d in the Cloudy Seaside Town, performing specific steps prevents the event where Munchlax repairs the bridge from occurring, making it impossible to progress the request.<\/em><\/p>\n

– In \u201cRocky Mountain Town,\u201d performing specific actions prevents the event where you encounter Rotom from occurring.<\/em><\/p>\n

– The request \u201cClean Up the Road!\u201d in \u201cRocky Mountain Town\u201d becomes difficult to progress under certain conditions.<\/em><\/p>\n

– The type listed for \u201cIttomaru\u201d (Spinarak) in the Pok\u00e9dex is incorrect.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Planned Improvements<\/p>\n

We plan to implement improvements for the following issues.<\/em><\/p>\n

– In the \u201cDry Dry Town\u201d request \u201cBreak Rocks with Rock Smash!\u201d, if another block is placed on the cracked block near \u201cShrimpy\u201d instead, the progression path becomes unclear.<\/em><\/p>\n

– In the \u201cGloomy Seaside Town\u201d request \u201cTake the Scientists There!\u201d, placing a different block where the cracked block near \u201cSnorlax\u201d should be makes the progression unclear.<\/em><\/p>\n

Future Plans<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

An update to fix the above issues is scheduled for release soon. Even if you are already experiencing this issue, applying this update will resolve it. We will continue investigating other issues beyond those mentioned above.<\/em><\/p>\n

So, if you are encountering certain problems in Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia, as you can see, bug fixes and improvements are on the way.<\/p>\n
