Revision 3

Overview

Torchic is a Fire-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Chick Pokemon (Dex #120). In its belly, it has a sac filled with burning fire, meaning Torchic feels as warm as a hot-water bottle if you hug it. Torchic is a Common visitor at two meal-themed habitats and carries the Burn specialty. It is the first stage in a family that includes Combusken and Blaziken.

Habitat

Torchic can be found at two different habitats, both as a Common visitor. Both habitats are food-themed, which fits Torchic's bird-like nature.

Chirp-chirp Meal (#069)

A birdhouse setup with plated food. "Bird Pokemon are sure to come and enjoy feasting on the plated food."

Torchic appears as a Common visitor here. Blaziken (Very Rare) also spawns at this habitat, so building it gives you a chance at both.

Resort Meal Prep (#079)

A relaxing tropical cooking setup. "Sitting by a campfire underneath a palm tree... Let's kick back and cook some food!"

Torchic appears as a Common visitor here alongside Growlithe (Common) and Combusken (Rare).

Location

Both of Torchic's habitats can be built on islands with access to the required items. The Chirp-chirp Meal habitat needs a wooden birdhouse, which can be crafted at a workbench. The Resort Meal Prep habitat requires a large palm tree, which is typically found on tropical islands. Both need plated food, which is made by cooking a meal and placing it on a plate.

How to Befriend

To befriend Torchic, build either the Chirp-chirp Meal or Resort Meal Prep habitat. Both are relatively straightforward to set up. Since Torchic is a Common visitor at both locations, it should appear quickly after the habitat is built. Walk up and interact with it to add Torchic to your island.

Specialty: Burn

Torchic has the Burn specialty. Pokemon with this specialty interact with fire and heat sources on your island. Torchic can help keep campfires and fire-related structures running, and its natural warmth makes it a cozy companion. The Burn specialty is shared with other Fire-type Pokemon like Vulpix, Growlithe, and Magby.

Preferences

Place fire-themed items, stone decorations, and cute objects near Torchic's habitat to raise its Comfort Level. It prefers sweet-flavored food, which is different from the sour and bitter preferences of most other Pokemon in this Dex range. Note that Torchic appears only in Sunny weather.

Related Pokemon

Torchic is the first stage of a three-member family. In the main Pokemon series, Torchic evolves into Combusken at level 16, and Combusken evolves into Blaziken at level 36. In Pokopia, there is no evolution mechanic, so each member must be found at its own habitat. Torchic shares the Chirp-chirp Meal habitat with Blaziken (Very Rare) and the Resort Meal Prep habitat with Combusken (Rare), so building these habitats gives you access to the full family over time.

Tips

• Torchic is a Common visitor at both of its habitats, making it very easy to find once you build either one.

• The Chirp-chirp Meal habitat also attracts Blaziken as a Very Rare visitor. If you want the full family, start here and be patient.

• Torchic only appears in Sunny weather. If it is cloudy or rainy, you may need to wait for the weather to clear.

• The Resort Meal Prep habitat attracts both Torchic and Growlithe as Common visitors, making it a good choice if you want multiple Fire-type Pokemon.

• Torchic prefers sweet food, while most nearby Pokemon in the Dex prefer sour or bitter. Keep separate food supplies for different tastes.
