1516 The Expansion Pass is optional. The underwater gameplay itself comes from the free Version 2.0 update, which adds Dive and lets every player plant grass, build structures, and create underwater towns alongside Pokemon at no cost in August 2026. The pass adds the Bubbly Basin town on top of that, plus the later parts in late 2026 and 2027.
