Overview
Ampharos is an Electric-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Light Pokemon (Dex #113). Known for the bright light it produces from its tail, Ampharos is a Rare visitor at the Plain Life habitat. It carries both the Trade and Generate specialties, making it one of the more versatile Pokemon you can attract to your island. Ampharos is the final stage in the Mareep family, which also includes Flaaffy. While Pokopia does not have an evolution mechanic, each member of the family can be found at its own habitat independently.
Habitat
Ampharos is found at one habitat. Because it appears as a Rare visitor, you may need to wait a while after building the habitat before it shows up.
Plain Life (#097)
The Plain Life habitat is described as "a simple yet calming space" where Pokemon are sure to feel comfortable. It requires basic furniture items that are readily available.
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Plain Bed | 1 | Standard bed furniture |
Plain Sofa | 1 | Standard sofa furniture |
Plain Table | 1 | Standard table furniture |
Plain Lamp | 1 | Standard lamp furniture |
Ampharos is the only Pokemon that spawns at this habitat, appearing as a Rare visitor. It is available during all times of day (Morning, Day, Evening, Night) and in all weather conditions (Sunny, Cloudy, Rainy).
Location
The Plain Life habitat is located in Palette Town. Palette Town becomes accessible after progressing through the main story and unlocking additional islands. Once you reach Palette Town, gather the four plain furniture items and arrange them together to create the Plain Life habitat.
How to Befriend
To befriend Ampharos, build the Plain Life habitat in Palette Town by placing the four required furniture items (Plain Bed, Plain Sofa, Plain Table, Plain Lamp) near each other. Because Ampharos is a Rare visitor, it may take several in-game days for it to appear. Once it spawns, walk up and interact with it to add Ampharos to your island.
Specialties
Ampharos has two specialties:
Trade: Ampharos can exchange items with the player at a cash register. When a cash register is placed near its habitat, Ampharos will occasionally staff the register and offer items for trade.
Generate: Ampharos produces electrical energy, which can be used to power nearby electrical furniture and devices on your island.

Related Pokemon
Ampharos belongs to a three-stage family alongside Mareep and Flaaffy. In the main Pokemon series, Mareep evolves into Flaaffy at level 15, and Flaaffy evolves into Ampharos at level 30. In Pokopia, there is no evolution mechanic, so each family member must be found at its own habitat. Ampharos also shares habitat preferences with other Electric-type Pokemon like Pikachu and Jolteon.
Tips
Ampharos is a Rare visitor at its only habitat, so patience is key. Check back regularly after building the Plain Life habitat.
Having both Trade and Generate specialties makes Ampharos especially valuable. The Generate specialty can help power electrical items across your island.
Decorate the area with shiny and electronic items to boost Ampharos's comfort once it arrives.
If you already have Mareep and Flaaffy, adding Ampharos completes the family on your island.
