Pokémon Pokopia Hosts Copycat Challenge Event Through April 2

On April Fools’ Day, The Pokémon Company launched its limited-time “Copycat Challenge” event in Pokémon Pokopia. In the Copycat Challenge event, Pokémon Pokopia players will notice that some Pokémon may imitate the way other Pokémon speak and quiz you. If you pass the quiz, you’ll get an inflatable Sudowoodo. The Copycat Challenge will last through April 2 at 4:59 a.m. PT / 7:59 a.m. ET, so players won’t have long until the event is over—unless you use the good old internal clock trick on Nintendo Switch 2.

Pokémon Pokopia is available now on Nintendo Switch 2 for $69.99 digitally and physically as a Game-Key Card title. The Game Freak and Koei Tecmo-developed title reached reached 2.2 million copies sold in the first four days of release. Final Weapon reviewed Pokémon Pokopia and awarded it a 4.5/5 score, noting that the game “shattered expectations” and engrosses players in its various systems. 

Final Weapon’s review summary reads, “Pokémon Pokopia has shattered pretty much all the expectations I had of this game, and it deserves every praise it can get. This is precisely the type of game that, even if you boot it up for just a few short minutes, I guarantee you there will always be something that can be done, and before you notice, it’s been half an hour, and you’re still engrossed in it.”

The Pokémon Company recently released the version 1.0.2 update for Pokémon Pokopia with fixes to previously detailed issues and progression-blocking bugs. Specifically, Pokémon Pokopia update 1.0.2 applies fixes to various requests in the Withered Wasteland, Bleak Beach, and Rocky Ridges areas.
