11Overview22The More Spores for Hoppip event is the first limited-time event in Pokemon Pokopia. Running from March 10 to March 25, 2026, it introduces three event-exclusive Pokemon: Hoppip, Skiploom, and Jumpluff. Players collect Cotton Spores from Dream Islands and exchange them for event furniture used to build special habitats that attract these Pokemon.44Event Dates66DetailInformationStart DateMarch 10, 2026, 5:00 AM local timeEnd DateMarch 25, 2026, 4:59 AM local timeDurationApproximately two weeks88Prerequisites1010Before you can participate in the event, you must have a fully built Pokemon Center in your area. Hoppip appears as the "talk of the town" Pokemon at the Pokemon Center entrance. Speak to Hoppip to begin the event. Note that Hoppip only appears in main areas, not on Cloud Islands.1212Cotton Spore Collection1414Cotton Spores are the event currency. They spawn on Dream Islands during the event period. Access Dream Islands by giving any doll to Drifloon. Cotton Spores appear on every Dream Island visited while the event is active, so players can collect them through normal Dream Island runs.1616Each Dream Island visited during the event period will have numerous Cotton Spores scattered throughout the environment, making them straightforward to gather during normal Dream Island runs. Cotton Spores cannot be created via the 3D Printer or any other crafting method; the only way to obtain them is by collecting them on Dream Islands while the event is active. Because Dream Island visits have a daily limit, expect to spend multiple days collecting enough spores to purchase all event items.1818Event Shop2020Exchange Cotton Spores at the Pokemon Center for event-exclusive items. All items have unlimited stock, so you can buy as many as you need before the event ends.2222ItemCost (Cotton Spores)Dandy Flower Seeds x55Hoppip Water Bottle5Lunch Box5Juice Trio5Flower Backpack5Flower Garlands x105Flowery Table Setting10Flower Table10Flower Cushion10Picnic Blanket152424Note that the Flower Backpack is a decorative furniture item, not a wearable accessory. Despite its name suggesting something Ditto could wear, it functions as a placeable decoration used in the Field-Trip Friends habitat. The Dandy Flower Seeds must be planted and grown into Dandy Flowers before they can be used for habitat construction, so plan ahead when purchasing them.2525Event Habitats2727Three special habitats can be created using event items to attract the featured Pokemon.2929Yellow Carpet3131DetailInformationRequired Items4 Dandy Flowers connected togetherPokemon AttractedHoppip, Skiploom, JumpluffNotesGrow Dandy Flowers from Dandy Flower Seeds (5 Cotton Spores).

Its Grow specialty accelerates plant growth, while its Litter specialty causes it to periodically drop cotton-related materials.4343System Clock Workaround4545The event runs on the Nintendo Switch 2's internal system clock rather than a live server. Setting your console's date to any day between March 9 and March 24, 2026, will activate the event regardless of the actual calendar date. This means the event Pokemon are not permanently missable. See the Limited-Time Events article for full details on the clock workaround.4747Cloud Islands Exclusion4949Cloud Islands (multiplayer islands separate from the main campaign) do not participate in events. Hoppip cannot appear on Cloud Islands, and event items and Pokemon are unavailable there.5151Tips5353Prioritize buying Dandy Flower Seeds first (5 Cotton Spores) since you need to grow them into Dandy Flowers before building the Yellow Carpet habitat.The Yellow Carpet habitat is the most efficient because it attracts all three event Pokemon with a single setup.The total Cotton Spore cost for all necessary habitat items is roughly 30 to 40 spores, achievable within 4 to 6 days of Dream Island visits.This event is expected to be a recurring springtime event, similar to holiday events in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.To buy one of every event item, you need a total of 75 Cotton Spores (five items at 5 each, three items at 10 each, and the Picnic Blanket at 15). If you want duplicates for decorating multiple areas, budget accordingly.The Flower Garland comes in sets of 10 per purchase, and the Dandy Flower Seeds come in bags of 5 per purchase, making them good value for decorating larger areas.Time traveling backward from the future requires jumping to a previous date first, then forward to the intended event date.
