Overview
Ekans is a Poison-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Snake Pokemon (Dex #146). A very common sight in grasslands, Ekans flicks its tongue in and out to sense danger in its surroundings. It is the first stage of a two-member family that includes Arbok. While there is no evolution mechanic in Pokopia, both members can be found at the same habitat. Ekans prefers Dark environments, setting it apart from many other Pokemon that favor brighter settings.
Habitat
Ekans is found at the Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed habitat (#106).
Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed (#106)
The Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed is a nature-themed habitat with a watering element. Ekans appears here as a Common visitor, making it relatively easy to find.
Ekans is available during all times of day (Dawn, Day, Dusk, Night) and in all weather conditions (Sunny, Cloudy, Rainy).
How to Befriend
Build the Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed habitat by placing the required flower and water-themed furniture items near each other. Once the habitat activates, Ekans will appear as a Common visitor. Walk up and interact with it to add Ekans to your island.

Related Pokemon
Ekans belongs to a two-stage family alongside Arbok (Dex #147). In the main Pokemon series, Ekans evolves into Arbok at level 22. In Pokopia, both are found at the Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed habitat, though Ekans is Common while Arbok is Rare. Other Pokemon that share similar Dark habitat preferences include Drilbur, Crobat, and Abra.
Tips
Ekans is one of the few Pokemon that prefers Dark environments, so it pairs well with other dark-loving Pokemon like Arbok, Crobat, and Umbreon.
Building the Hydrated Graceful Flower Bed gives you a chance at both Ekans (Common) and Arbok (Rare) from the same habitat.
Its fondness for garbage items means leftover junk furniture that other Pokemon dislike can actually boost Ekans' Comfort Level.
Ekans is a Generation 1 classic and makes a good addition for players looking to collect original Kanto Pokemon in Pokopia.
