33 Pokopia has a robust painting system that lets players customize furniture, building blocks, and house exteriors. The system revolves around berries, Pokemon with the Crush specialty, and the unique NPC Smearguru. There are 18 distinct paint colors: 6 base colors produced from berries, 2 rare colors (Black and White) that appear as random bonus drops, and 10 mixed colors created by combining base paints.

55 How to Unlock Painting
66  
77 The painting system unlocks when you find Smearguru at Bleak Beach, under a gazebo on the far northern shore. You need Great Trainer Rank to access this area. After meeting Smearguru, bring it a Leppa Berry crushed into Red paint and complete a few introductory tasks. This teaches you the Paint Balloon recipe and gives you access to Smearguru's full painting services.

2222 Paint Balloons

2424 Paint Balloons are the primary tool for coloring placed items in the world. They are crafted at a Workbench using bowls of paint. To use a Paint Balloon, carry it in your inventory and toss it at a paintable item. The target item will change to the balloon's color. Clear surrounding objects first for precision, as the balloon can be tricky to aim. Paintable items are identified by a paintbrush icon in the crafting menu.
