Overview
Persian is a Normal-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Classy Cat Pokemon (Dex #085). Persian is found in the Evil Organization HQ habitat, a Team Rocket-themed setup that references the famous villain organization from the main series. Persian carries two specialties: Trade for exchanging items at a cash register and Search for finding buried items. In the main series, Persian is the evolution of Meowth, which plays a central role in Pokopia's Bleak Beach storyline.
Habitat
Persian lives in the Evil Organization HQ habitat (#179). This Team Rocket-themed habitat requires:
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Team Rocket Wall Hanging | 1 | A decorative wall piece featuring the Team Rocket emblem |
Luxury Sofa | 1 | A high-end seating piece |
Potted Plant (any) | 2 | Any type of potted plant works |
Persian is the only Pokemon that spawns at this habitat, appearing as a Common visitor. The habitat's description reads: "A comfy couch in front of an organization's emblem. Sitting here makes you feel like a boss." Persian is available at all times of day and in all weather conditions.
Location
The Evil Organization HQ habitat can be built across all regions in Pokopia, including Withered Wasteland, Bleak Beach, Rocky Ridges, Sparkling Skylands, Palette Town, and Cloud Island. The Team Rocket Wall Hanging is the key item needed; players should look for it while exploring or check crafting recipes after progressing through the story.
How to Befriend
Build the Evil Organization HQ habitat by hanging a Team Rocket Wall Hanging on a wall, then placing a Luxury Sofa with a potted plant on either side. Once the habitat is set up, Persian will appear as a Common visitor. Walk up and interact with Persian to befriend it.
Specialties
Trade
Persian has the Trade specialty. Pokemon with the Trade specialty can exchange items with you at a cash register. Set up a trading post with a cash register, and Persian will facilitate item exchanges. This is a valuable specialty for managing your inventory and acquiring hard-to-find items. Persian's pre-evolution Meowth also has the Trade specialty.
Search
Persian also has the Search specialty. If you hold the Dowsing Machine and press the A button while walking with Persian, you will start looking for buried items. The combination of Trade and Search makes Persian a well-rounded utility Pokemon for both commerce and exploration.

Persian is the evolved form of Meowth in the main series. In Pokopia, Meowth plays a role in the Bleak Beach storyline and is befriended through story progression, while Persian must be attracted through the Evil Organization HQ habitat. Persian gains the Search specialty on top of Meowth's Trade specialty.
Tips
Persian's Trade specialty makes it an excellent Pokemon to station at your shop or trading post. Pair it with a cash register for convenient item exchanges.
The Evil Organization HQ habitat is one of the more thematic builds in the game. The Team Rocket references make it a fun addition to your island.
Furnish Persian's area with cool-toned, shiny, and luxury items to increase its Comfort Level.
If you have already befriended Meowth through the Bleak Beach story, Persian is a natural upgrade with an additional Search capability.
