With cozy games being all the rage it looks like Nintendo has finally added a Pokemon offering to the mix! During last nights Nintendo Direct, Pokémon Pokopia which lets players become Ditto and care for an island paradise. It’s launching sometime in 2026.
Playing as a Ditto that has transformed to look like a human, you can collect wood, rocks, and other crafting materials to create a cozy home. Ditto can learn moves from other Pokémon and utilize those moves to help build your very own Pokémon paradise. For example, Ditto can use Bulbasaur’s Leafage to add greenery to the landscape or Squirtle’s Water Gun to hydrate plants. By creating a lush, welcoming environment, more Pokémon will visit.
The game feels like a nice departure from the typical Pokemon games we’re used. It’s not yet known how many Pokemon will appear in the final game but based off the trailer we will be seeing quite a few from various generations.
Pokémon Pokopia will be launching sometime in 2026.
