Pokémon Pokopia hits 5 million, a quarter of Switch 2 players own it

Nintendo and The Pokémon Company say Pokémon Pokopia has sold over 5 million copies globally in just over four months, which, given Switch 2’s ~20 million installed base as of May 2026, means about one in four Switch 2 owners has the game. It sits behind Mario Kart World in Switch 2 sales, and its momentum is helped by the new Expansion Pass Part 1: Bubbly Basin; Nintendo and Koei Tecmo are aiming to balance future releases with ports and smaller titles.

Pokémon Pokopia Reaches 5 Million, Boosting Nintendo Shares

Nintendo shares rose about 7% after ‘Pokémon Pokopia’ sold over 5 million copies on the Switch 2, four months after its March launch and becoming the second-best-selling Switch 2 title. The milestone comes as investors monitor game sales amid memory-cost-driven price increases for the Switch 2. In the June quarter, Switch 2 sales were 3.82 million units (down 34.4% YoY), with Nintendo guiding to 16.5 million Switch 2 units for the year ending March 31, 2027. The company also announced Pokopia updates and two new Pokémon titles next year, plus a Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. Despite headwinds, the stock has jumped about 26% in the last month but remains down around 16% for the year.

Koei Tecmo Aims for Record-Breaking Pokemon Spin-Off with Pokopia

Koei Tecmo president Hisashi Koinuma says Pokopia was developed with the aim of becoming the best-selling Pokemon spin-off; early overseas coverage boosted its profile, and the project appears to be on track to meet its sales target after reportedly selling over 4 million copies in the first five weeks. The company credits past work on Dragon Quest Builders 2 and Omega Force’s crafting-focused experience for growth, and an August update plus the first part of Pokopia’s Expansion Pass DLC are planned.

Jirachi Event Sparks Sparkling Rewards in Pokémon Pokopia

Jirachi Event Sparks Sparkling Rewards in Pokémon Pokopia

From June 23 to July 8, 2026, Pokémon Pokopia hosts Wish Upon a Jirachi, with Jirachi appearing outside a rebuilt Pokémon Center to give a Wish Note receipt. Turn standard Wish Notes into Sparkling Wish Notes by completing town requests; exchange them at the Center for event items. To build the Surrounded by Stars Jirachi habitat, spend four Sparkling Wish Notes on Star closet, Starry-sky bed, Cloud table, and Jirachi lamp (lamp must be connected to electricity). Jirachi appears after the event ends; pre-event requests won’t grant Sparkling Wish Notes, so keep Wish Notes in your inventory.

Pokemon Pokopia Goes Underwater for Free, with Paid DLC and New Towns

Nintendo unveils a free underwater update for Pokemon Pokopia arriving in August (2.0), adding a Ditto Dive ability and expanding the underwater town area. Simultaneously, a paid Expansion Pass unlocks future updates, including a new underwater town called Bubbly Basin with new furniture/outfits; the pass costs $35 alone or $105 with the base game and promises further content in late 2026 and another town in 2027. Buyers by August 31, 2027 receive a code for 30 rare Pokemetal ingots and a Ditto-themed wallpaper/print block. The rollout notes requirements to access Dive (raise Bleak Beach environment level and know Jump and Surf), leading to some confusion about the exact flow.
