The next Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia limited-time event, &#8220;Fetching Scales for Feebas,&#8221; goes live this Wednesday, 13 August at 5:00 a.m. SGT and runs until 28 August at 4:59 a.m. SGT.<\/p>\n<h2>How the Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia Feebas Event Works<\/h2>\n<p>Once the event starts, Feebas \u2014 the Fish Pok\u00e9mon \u2014 will appear outside rebuilt Pok\u00e9mon Centers across your town. Chat with it and you will be tasked with gathering Prism Scales throughout the two-week event window. The scales act as the event&#8217;s currency, exchangeable for a batch of swimming-themed furniture and, with the right habitat setup, Milotic itself.<\/p>\n<p>Crucially, this event does <em>not<\/em> take place in Bubbly Basin or the Cloud Islands, which means every Pokopia player can participate regardless of whether they have purchased the Expansion Pass.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/pokemon-pokopia-water-pokemon-plaza.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia gameplay showing player character with water-type Pok\u00e9mon including Psyduck, Piplup, Squirtle and Manaphy in a sunny town plaza\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of The Pok\u00e9mon Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The Rewards: Beach Furniture and a Permanent Milotic<\/h2>\n<p>Collect enough Prism Scales and you can trade them in for a full set of summer beach furniture: a volleyball net, a beach umbrella, life preservers, and a Pok\u00e9mon-branded cooler. Arrange them into the right habitat and Feebas&#8217;s spectacular evolution, Milotic, will move in \u2014 and stay permanently, even after the event closes on 28 August.<\/p>\n<p>That is the same keep-what-you-unlock mechanic the game used for earlier limited-time events. If you set up the habitat during the two-week window, both Feebas and Milotic become a permanent part of your town. Miss the event and there is no other currently announced way to obtain either of them.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"gt-video\">\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3VrJkWqqORc\" title=\"Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia \u2013 Bubbly Basin Launch Trailer \u2013 Nintendo Switch 2\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;\" allow=\"accelerometer;clipboard-write;encrypted-media;gyroscope;picture-in-picture;web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><figcaption>Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia \u2013 Bubbly Basin Launch Trailer \u2013 Nintendo Switch 2 \u2014 via Nintendo of America on YouTube<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Pokopia&#8217;s Event Pipeline After Bubbly Basin<\/h2>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/pokemon-pokopia-bubbly-basin-expansion-pass.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia Expansion Pass Part 1 Bubbly Basin Available Now on Nintendo Switch 2\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of The Pok\u00e9mon Company<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Fetching Scales for Feebas event is Pokopia&#8217;s fourth major seasonal event since the Switch 2 title launched globally on 5 March 2026.
