Nintendo Japan has officially announced the upcoming Pokemon Pokopia event, marking another major success for the Nintendo Switch 2. The event, which is part of a popular game series, has already sold five million copies within four months, establishing itself as one of the most successful releases on the platform. In response to its popularity, Nintendo has announced a series of downloadable content (DLC) updates, with the second one expected to launch by the end of the year, though no specific date has been set yet. To maintain player engagement, the Kyoto-based company continues to provide themed events that offer unique in-game experiences and rewards. The Japanese branch of Nintendo has confirmed that the autumn Pokemon Pokopia event will take place from October 17 to November 1. During this time, two new Pokémon—Pitrouille and Banshitrouye—are set to join players’ virtual worlds. While the event does not yet have an official French name, it will feature special candies that can be exchanged for various items, including Halloween-themed furniture to decorate players’ in-game creations. These items are expected to encourage players to invite Pitrouille into their virtual homes. The Pokemon Pokopia Halloween event will also include themed decorations at the in-game Pokemon Center. Players can expect to see spider webs, pumpkins, Nosferapti, and a Spectrum statue on the roof. Additionally, the event will allow players to transform certain items into furniture that can surprise or even scare other Pokémon. Nintendo has confirmed that players will need to have built their first Pokemon Center and unlocked the Copy ability from Zorua at Grisemer to participate fully in the event. More details will be shared as the event approaches, with the official date set for October 17, 2026. For reference, previous Pokemon Pokopia events have offered around a dozen themed items. The most recent event, "Scales for Barpau," introduced new habitats for Barpau and Milobellus, along with seven new decoration items, such as an ice chest and a volleyball kit. The first official images of the Halloween Pokemon Pokopia event already give a glimpse of what to expect, including balloons shaped like Pikachu, a pumpkin basket modeled after Pikachu, a sarcophagus inspired by Tutankafer, a Desséliande tree, a large pumpkin based on Spectrum, and a stone statue featuring Skelénox, Téraclope, and Noctunoir, along with stacked pumpkins.
