Minigames

Minigames redirects here. For minigames from the Pokémon Stadium series, see Pokémon Stadium series mini-games.

Minigames are games in Pokémon Pokopia which Ditto can play with other Pokémon or players.

Occasionally, a Pokémon will ask Ditto to play a game with them. Playing games will increase Ditto's friendship level with that Pokémon, with an additional boost if Ditto wins.

Jump rope

Jump rope can be played by talking to Bulbasaur. The game consists of Ditto jumping over Bulbasaur's extended vine. After certain numbers of jumps, Bulbasaur will give Ditto a reward. Periodically, Bulbasaur's Jump Rope Contest will take place where additional rewards can be earned.

Players who've touched the vine can change its speed to hinder players who are still jumping. Press to increase the vine's speed and to decrease it. The speed will change based on how many players press the buttons, so work together as a team!

Hide-and-sneak

Hide-and-sneak is unlocked after Ditto meets Zorua in Bleak Beach. Any Pokémon can ask Ditto to play hide-and-sneak, and it can be played at any time by talking to Zorua.

The game consists of Ditto trying to reach the Pokémon Center PC without being spotted by the Pokémon or players who are "it". Camouflage can be used to transform into blocks or items to avoid being spotted. If Ditto is seen moving while camouflaged, they are sent back and have to start again.

Hide-and-Sneak You can talk to Zorua to play the hide-and-sneak minigame. To win, you must touch the PC at the Pokémon Center without getting found by the seeker Pokémon. If you are found, you will be sent back to the starting point.
Using Camouflage will make it harder for the seeker Pokémon to find you. You can also create distractions by placing items on the ground, using items that make noise, or using emotes. Try different types of diversions to create openings and keep moving toward the PC!
When you play hide-and-sneak with other players, it becomes a team game. If any player touches the PC, the whole team wins. Players found by the seeker Pokémon will be sent back to the starting point. Work with your team to reach the PC!

Look That Way Some Pokémon may ask you to play "look that way". In this game, you must guess when prompted whether the Pokémon will look left or right by pressing or accordingly. Guess correctly, and you win the round. Guess incorrectly, and you lose.
If you have more wins than losses after three rounds, you win the game. Winning will greatly increase your friendship with the Pokémon. But even if you lose, your friendship still improves somewhat.

Quizzes

Pokémon will approach Ditto and ask various questions. Answering correctly will increase friendship with that Pokémon. Questions include;

  • 'Who's taller?'
  • 'Who's weighs more?'
  • 'Which of these categories is a Pokémon's favourites?'
  • 'Which is a Pokémon's least favourite flavour?'

During the Copycat Challenge event Pokémon will imitate other Pokémon, guessing the correct Pokémon three times will complete the challenge and reward an Inflatable Sudowoodo.
