Overview
Skwovet is a Normal-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Cheeky Pokemon (Dex #191). No matter how much it stuffs its belly with food, it is always anxious about getting hungry again. So, it stashes berries in its cheeks and tail. Skwovet is the pre-evolution of Greedent and carries the Search and Hype specialties.
Habitat
Skwovet is found at the Tree-shaded Tall Grass habitat in Palette Town, a basic nature-themed habitat that is available early in the game.
Tree-shaded Tall Grass (#002)
Shaded tall grass that stays cool, even in the midday sun. Pokemon might stop by to relax.
Item | Quantity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Large Tree (any) | 1 | Any large tree type works |
Tall Grass | 4 | Standard tall grass patches |
Skwovet appears as a Common visitor at this habitat. It is available during Morning, Day, Evening, and Night hours in Sunny, Cloudy, and Rainy weather. Other visitors include Scyther (Common), Bellsprout (Common), Scizor (Common, Palette Town only), Pinsir (Rare, Palette Town only), and Heracross (Rare).
How to Befriend
Build the Tree-shaded Tall Grass habitat by placing one Large Tree of any type and four Tall Grass patches near each other. This is one of the earliest habitats available in the game (habitat #002), so you can set it up right away. Skwovet is a Common visitor, making it very easy to find. Walk up and interact with it to add Skwovet to your island.
Specialties
Search
The Search specialty allows Skwovet to help you find buried items. When you have Skwovet on your island, it can sniff out hidden treasures and resources that would otherwise remain underground. This is a valuable specialty for discovering rare materials and items you might miss on your own.
Hype
The Hype specialty causes Skwovet to start dancing when it hears music, improving the mood of nearby Pokemon. Station Skwovet near working Pokemon and music-playing items to boost their efficiency and happiness. Having both Search and Hype makes Skwovet a strong support Pokemon.

Skwovet is food-obsessed, so items that look like food are especially appealing to it. It also likes soft objects, wooden items, and round things. Place watching-related items near its habitat for added comfort. Feed it dry-flavored food for the best response. Its warm environment preference means it does well in open, sunny areas.

Related Pokemon
Skwovet evolves into Greedent (Dex #192) in the main Pokemon series at Level 24. In Pokopia, there is no evolution mechanic, so each must be found independently. Greedent has the Party specialty and can be found at the Chef's Kitchen habitat (#133). While they share the food-loving personality, they appear at completely different habitats.
Tips
The Tree-shaded Tall Grass is habitat #002 in the Pokopia Dex, making it one of the very first habitats you can build. Skwovet is a great early-game pickup.
Skwovet's Search specialty is useful for finding buried items. Keep it active on your island to uncover hidden resources regularly.
This habitat attracts six different Pokemon, including Scyther (Common) and Heracross (Rare), making it one of the most diverse early-game habitats.
Skwovet's combination of Search and Hype specialties makes it a strong support Pokemon. The Search ability finds items, and the Hype ability boosts nearby workers.
Decorate Skwovet's area with food-shaped items and round objects to keep its comfort high.
