How It Works
During the event, Feebas appears in front of any rebuilt Pokemon Center. Chat with Feebas to start collecting Prism Scales, which can be exchanged for a variety of items, including swimming-themed furniture.
Habitats built with the event items suit Feebas and its especially elegant Evolution Milotic, so both can feel at home when you move them in.
Restrictions
The event does not take place on Bubbly Basin or Cloud Islands.
You need at least one rebuilt Pokemon Center for Feebas to appear.
How to Start the Event
Four conditions must all be met before Feebas will appear. If any one of them is missing, the event simply does not trigger.
Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
Version 2.0.0 | The game must be updated to Ver. 2.0.0. Check the version on the title screen or under Options in the HOME menu. See Version History and Updates. |
Rebuilt Pokemon Center | Clear the town's important request and rebuild the Pokemon Center. This still works if you finish the rebuild on the final day of the event. |
System clock | The Nintendo Switch 2 date and time must be set to the real date. Setting the clock outside the event window prevents the event from starting. |
Internet connection | Launch the game while connected to the internet. A connection is required the first time you play the event. |
Collecting Prism Scales
Prism Scales are not gathered in your own town. The collection route runs through a Dream Island:
Talk to Feebas near the rebuilt Pokemon Center to befriend it and start the event.
Gather Prism Scales on the Dream Island.
Return and trade the scales at the Pokemon Center counter for the event items.
