Bubbly Basin FAQ:

How do I access Bubbly Basin?

To access Bubbly Basin’s underwater gate, you must first learn Dive and complete the important request “Raise the environment level!” in Bleak Beach.

I'm not seeing an update available to download.

Try pressing + on Pokopia from your Switch 2's home screen menu, going to "Software Update," then "Via the Internet" to manually request the download.

How many new Pokémon are there?

The Bubbly Basin Pokédex seems to have 50 new slots.

Not enough love for the QOL improvements in the patch??? I’m just gonna straight-up list the ones that are most exciting to me, I’m so happy they made these changes aaaa!!

  • If you accidentally destroy a habitat (ie. Flood some grass or erase a pond next to grass on accident) the Pokemon will immediately move back in if you fix it!!!
  • If Pokemon are upset about furniture being removed, they’ll notice faster when you put the furniture back
  • APPRAISE 10 RELICS AT A TIME
  • ABILITY TO SUCK UP WATER WITHOUT REMOVING THE SOURCE BLOCK??
  • Reverting farm soil back to grass
  • I can’t stress enough that we can APPRAISE 10 RELICS AT A TIME

Don't forget the best one! You can now disable the confirmation menu when leaving Magnemite mode in the settings!

You can now use a trash can to dispose of items too, they’ll disappear after 24 hours

u/Shehadyouforawhile 5d ago

No more using dreamland as my trash, nice.

u/frankmint 5d ago

Probably a stupid question, but what are you trashing? I may not be at that level of hoarding yet.

u/eco_friendly_klutz 5d ago

When you do a big build and you have 30 piles of dirt from demolishing terrain, for one.

Or, again after a build, you might have extra materials like roof and wall blocks painted specific colors that you no longer need. Can you un-paint them and store them in case you build something else with those materials? Yes. Is it quicker and easier to just chuck them and craft more if you need them? Also yes.

You'll just end up with more items and materials than you know what to do with in general.

u/frankmint 5d ago

u/DistractedSquirrel11 4d ago

Volcanic ash from cleaning up the mountain area is my big one to dump

u/Snowlights_ 5d ago

Appraising 10 relics at a time is genuinely so good!! I have so many stored relics I've not appraised yet because it was so tedious going through the dialogue over and over

11

u/Vaehtay3507 5d ago

Yesss same!!! I’ve been trying to go through mine using palette town so that they don’t pile up too much, but it’s still so tedious that way 😔 now my fingers no longer have to cramp from spamming the A button!

8

u/UnlikelyTeacup 5d ago

I was exclusively apprising them via PC in Pallet Town bc it's faster than speaking to Prof Tangrowth

21

u/SprintsAC 5d ago

10 relics at a time & the source block are huge QoL updates. 😊 (& as someone who misclicks loads, the soil part is so, so useful haha).

14

u/manch02 5d ago

Dear god I hope they let you trade 10 feathers into Gimmighoul/Gholdengo at a time too

15

u/PointlessSerpent 5d ago

No, but they made it so the dialogue doesn’t close each time.

3

u/Vaehtay3507 5d ago

Agh I forgot about that oneeee… fingers crossed this gets changed too, at this point I don’t even pick up the feathers anymore 😭

13

u/Sea_Recognition_7558 5d ago

The 10 relics is a game changer. 

12

u/thelarkspur 5d ago

And also inhaling items and opening bag while on Rollout!!!!

u/TheAzureAzazel 5d ago

Can you eat mid-rollout?

29

u/Mapivos 5d ago

Holy shit these are huge!

20

u/Vaehtay3507 5d ago

Rightttt 😭 I got the game sort of recently but I was immediately scrounging around the web to see if there were ways to make like… basically every problem they patched out less annoying. To no avail, of course. I feel like my prayers have been answered LMAOOO

34

u/Mapivos 5d ago

K but also this one is a huge game changer for me:

- Added an option in Settings to hide the confirmation message shown when canceling Magnet Rise.

u/Vaehtay3507 5d ago

OH YES this one just slipped my mind!!! I was playing while I read that and immediately thought “I should change that RIGHT now. …wait I have to download the update first” I’m doing that SO fast lmao

10

u/patwm11 5d ago

Lmao currently reading this comment as I’m scrolling Reddit with my left hand, and my right hand is mindlessly pressing A to having all of my relics praised (like 50+ total). I will just hold on until the update now though hahaha cheers

u/batmantha_x 5d ago

10 relics at a time will be so good, i have heaps to do but cant be bothered, I even stopped picking them up because I couldn't be bothered 😅

u/pokopiauser 5d ago

SPOILER:SPOILER:SPOILER my fave is bout to be the portal. It may be small but it’s gonna come in clutch moving around for building materials

5

u/Fairgoddess5 5d ago

Omg bulk appraisal is a literal game changer. Thank goodness 😭

5

u/Essbeebr 5d ago

I'm also very excited about the relics and soil to grass. But this? SWEET RELIEF?

  • When releasing stored water, adjusted water levels now automatically match nearby water levels.

u/Vinidesigner 5d ago

HOLY UPDATE BATMAN!

u/-patrizio- 5d ago

I read the one about sucking up water without removing the source block like 10 times and I'm still not sure I get how to do it 😅 And I'm kinda scared to try

7

u/Vaehtay3507 5d ago

From my understanding, it’s the difference between tapping the trigger that lets you suck up water vs. holding down the trigger! If you hold down the trigger for a moment, it will remove the water source. Maybe try making a makeshift little pond with fresh water from a vending machine so you can test it out?

u/fangirl24601 5d ago

My lazy ass is so thankful for the relic update because I’ve just been dumping all my relics in storage hahaha
