During the September 2025 Nintendo Direct, a new Pokemon spin-off game starring a Ditto who makes themself look like a trainer called Pokemon Pokopia appeared. It will launch on the Switch 2 in 2026.
The first video highlighted how gameplay will work. We start by controlling a Ditto who decides to look like a Pokemon Trainer. Once heading out into the environment, we can encounter other Pokemon. By interacting with them, we learn their abilities. So learning Leafage from Bulbasaur will let us create grass in the world. By learning abilities, we can create more in the world. This allows us to make more homes for Pokemon, build things up, and potentially develop a whole community. The footage also showed another, different looking trainer roaming around.
Here’s the full September 2025 Nintendo Direct:
Pokemon Pokopia will come to the Switch 2 in 2026.
