Build Specialty

Overview

Build is a Pokemon Specialty in Pokemon Pokopia. Pokemon with the Build specialty lead construction projects, making them required helpers for almost every building kit, dwelling, and Pokemon Center rebuild. Most large structures require at least one Build-specialty Pokemon among the assigned helpers before construction can start.

What it Does

Pokemon with the Build specialty fulfill the "lead" role on construction sites:

• Required helper for most building kits and house kits

• Required helper for Pokemon Center Rebuilding Kit construction

• Once assigned to a kit, the Build Pokemon directs other helpers and oversees material consumption

• Build helpers do not consume PP from the player's gauge; they work on their own time

What Build Pokemon Are Required For

Almost every large structure needs at least one Build-specialty Pokemon assigned before construction can begin. The most common projects that gate on a Build helper are listed below.

Build helpers do not draw from your PP gauge; once assigned, they work on their own time. Pairing a Build Pokemon with the Engineer specialty (Tinkmaster) shortens build times further on the largest projects.

Tips

• Befriend at least one Build Pokemon early so you can start using construction kits. Cubone is one of the easiest to obtain via the Grave with Flowers habitat.

• Pair Build helpers with Engineer specialty Tinkmaster for the fastest possible construction times on large projects.

• Multiple Build Pokemon can work simultaneously on different kits.
