TL;DR: Part 2 of the Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass, called Dazzling Decorations, arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 on December 9 (December 8 in the US). It adds accessories for Ditto and other Pokémon, plus more Pokémon and furniture. Before that, a free “Apples to Applin” event starts November 16.
Good news for Pokopia players who love decorating. The Pokémon Company has set the release date for the second wave of the game’s paid Expansion Pass, and this one is all about style.
What’s in Dazzling Decorations
- Accessories. For the first time, you can dress up in-game, and not just as Ditto. The other Pokémon in Pokopia can wear accessories too, so pwede kayong mag-terno.
- Sample accessories. These include sunglasses, a bow tie for a classier look, and Pokémon-themed items like a Sylveon ribbon. More will be revealed later.
- More Pokémon and furniture to collect and place.
- No new town. That’s coming in Part 3.
To play Part 2, you’ll need the free ver. 3.0.0 update. You’ll also need to finish the “Raise the environment level!” and “Rebuild the Pokémon Center!” requests in Withered Wasteland, plus Drifloon’s “Find a doll!” request.
