Overview
Glass is a transparent processed material in Pokemon Pokopia used in building and crafting recipes that require transparent or reflective components. It can be produced through smelting or salvaged from broken windows in the environment.
How to Obtain
Method | Details |
|---|---|
Smelting | Melt volcanic ash, sand, or sandstone in a Smelting Furnace with a Burn-specialty Pokemon |
Breaking Windows | Breaking broken windows in abandoned structures yields Glass directly |
Volcanic ash is abundant in Rocky Ridges, while sand and sandstone are found in beach and desert areas. Breaking existing windows in the ruins of Sparkling Skylands and Bleak Beach also provides Glass without needing a furnace.
Crafting Uses
Glass is used in crafting and building recipes for windows, display cases, terrariums, light fixtures, and other transparent or decorative items. The CD Player recipe (1 Pokemetal, 1 Glass, 1 Iron Ingot) is one notable use. Glass is also a component in several building kits.
Recycling Note
Glass is also listed as a Recycle input: Trubbish and Garbodor can convert Nonburnable Glass (a subset of Nonburnable Garbage) back into Iron Ore. This means excess Glass can be recycled rather than discarded.
Tips
Volcanic ash from Rocky Ridges is the easiest bulk source for Glass production. Keep a furnace running on ash whenever you are not smelting ores. Glass demand increases significantly during building projects that require windows, so maintaining a stockpile prevents delays.
