Location Location of Sparkling Skylands in Kanto.

The Sparkling Skylands (Japanese:キラキラうきしまの街 Sparkling Floating Island Town) is the final unlockable area in Pokémon Pokopia, only unlockable after befriending Kyogre in Withered Wasteland, Raikou in Bleak Beach, and Volcanion in Rocky Ridges. It is what remains of Saffron City after a series of catastrophic weather anomalies ravaged the world and forced humans to take refuge in space.

Ditto arrives in the Sparkling Skylands through the gate from either Bleak Beach or Rocky Ridges, accompanied by Professor Tangrowth.

The Sparkling Skylands is connected to Rocky Ridges to the west, Withered Wasteland to the east, and Bleak Beach to the south through gates. The gate to Withered Wasteland is blocked from the Sparkling Skylands' side, making it inaccessible from Withered Wasteland until this blockage has been removed.

Places of interest

Skyland Pokémon Center

The Skyland Pokémon Center is initially a pile of rubble on a stone tile platform, having been torn down by extreme weather. It is eventually rebuilt by Ditto and a group of other Pokémon, after which a note can be found on the floor inside, alongside a counter with a cash register, a 3D printer, a healing machine, and some furniture.

Tinkmaster's tower

Tinkmaster has built a tower of junk left behind by humans, with a room at the top. Ditto meets Tinkmaster outside this room after Tinkmaster is sent flying out through the doors by an explosion inside.

Big building

The big building sitting on one of the islands is the ruins of the Silph Co. building. Tinkmaster will ask Ditto to help her rebuild this building.

High-rise ruins

To the east, just infront of the gate to Withered Wasteland, is a neighborhood of ruined high-rise buildings. Gardevoir is also found here.

Underground office

An underground office appears in the Sparkling Skylands after every available Pokémon have been registered in Ditto's Pokédex. Inside is a printer that lets Ditto print out a diploma. Unlocking this office also allows Ditto to learn the recipes for the shutter, card reader, and printer.

Demographics

While there are no longer any humans living here, the Sparkling Skylands is inhabited by a handful of Pokémon before Ditto starts making new habitats.

Not counting Ditto and Professor Tangrowth, the Sparkling Skylands is initially inhabited by six Pokémon:

• Rookidee
• Dragonite
• Tinkmaster
• Gardevoir
• Poliwrath
• Gyarados

	This Week's Must-See Highlights	Newspapers	"The internationally acclaimed and award-winning film “Dream: If Only We Could Meet” will finally make its small-screen debut on the 9th of this month. They met and went on a journey together in a dream, but when each awoke, the other was nowhere to be found. Was it nothing more than a dream? Perhaps... We hope you enjoy this wistful and heartwarming story of Gengar and Mismagius!"	N/A
	Hacker's confessions #6	Diary Entries	"In order to escape the disaster, humanity would temporarily take refuge in space while Pokémon would be safely stored in a computer system. This was the general overview of the plan. But no computer system will keep running forever. The foundation planned to send a select few members back to the planet at regular intervals to perform ongoing maintenance. But for humanity to survive in space for any length of time, it would take a tremendous amount of energy. I calculated that even a slight deviation from the original plan would result in insufficient energy to return, leaving humankind stranded in space for dozens, or even hundreds, of years. If that happened, the essential system protecting the Pokémon would eventually cease to function. So I decided to add a little touch of my own to the system’s programming. First, it will continuously check the weather data across the globe in search of environments that can prove even slightly habitable to Pokémon. Next, if maintenance is not performed for a long period of time and the system begins to approach its limits, it will release the Pokémon most suited to those environments. Of course, ideally humans will return someday and live alongside Pokémon once more. But on the off chance humanity never returns from space...I think releasing the Pokémon into a wild world rather than leaving them asleep in a computer would be a happier outcome. It may sound strange coming from the program’s creator, but I hope it never has to run."	N/A
	Professor's diary #5	Diary Entries	"Something shocking has happened. The Pokémon Conservation Project is progressing smoothly, and the time came for my Tangela to join the others. In the hopes of avoiding a tearful scene, I waited until my grandchild was asleep before entrusting Tangela to one of the other project members. But later that night, I received word that Tangela had run off. Tangela was like family. He should have been accustomed to humans. How could this have happened? I have a theory. Tangela was likely trying to get back to our home. But it’s nearly time for my family to set off for space. Even if Tangela were to make it safely home... by the time he arrives, we'll no longer be there. I feel agonizingly helpless knowing there's nothing I can do. Nothing, that is, but hope that the project staff find Tangela and keep him safe..."	N/A
	Professor's diary #6	Diary Entries	"The day of departure finally arrived, and Tangela was still nowhere to be found. So I decided to join the survey team after all. It will give me the opportunity to return to the planet periodically, and I can search when I’m there. If there are any strange machines or rare tools on the ship, I should borrow them. Then I'll find Tangela and show them to him. I'm certain he’lI examine them with his usual curiosity. Until then...please, be safe."	N/A
	Team R Grunt's journal #6	Magazines	"The Secret of Team R’s Warehouse!!! Of course I can’t spill all the beans...but I can spill some of ‘em! You've probably heard the rumors about having all the humans evacuate into outer space. Well! Our boss tells me that the rumors are true! But apparently they don’t want Team R doing bad stuff in outer space, so they’re gonna split us up... and send us all to different areas! Not cool, people. I can’t be the only one who thinks that’s not cool! But our boss has us covered. Turns out that warehouse is ACTUALLY Team R’s secret weapon for getting us into outer space together! I cried happy tears! Our boss rules! How are we gonna get to outer space on our own, you ask? Well...I can’t tell ya that! Haha!"	N/A
	Team R Grunt's journal #7	Magazines	"Hearing about the boss’s dream of keeping Team R together even in outer space really got me motivated. I’m gonna give my mission one more serious go! I did a little work on the rocke—uh, the warehouse— to trick people walking by into wanting to help out with my mission. It was a LOT of work, but I just had to keep in mind that I was working hard in the moment so I could take it easy later! Not a bad way to do things, I think! The engineers all looked kinda annoyed with me, but they did lend me a hand. Now all I gotta do is wait for some goody-goody to come along and do my mission for me! I'm gonna go ahead and report to the boss what I've accomplished. I bet he’ll be so proud!"	N/A
	Poké Life Dev Diary #5	Magazines	"In a most unfortunate turn of events, Poké Life never received a chance to be put to use. The drastic deterioration of the global environment continues, and the plan to evacuate all of humanity into space has finally been put into action. Efforts have begun to gather as many Pokémon as possible from all over the world and send them into the Pokémon Center system for safekeeping. I was unable to make my dream a reality, but there is at least one silver lining in all of this. Even after we humans leave this planet, the Pokémon Center system will remain active in order to keep all of the Pokémon inside safe. The system will also keep a record of environmental data around each Pokémon Center. The framework we developed for Poké Life will be used for this. The recorded data will be analyzed by research teams set to return from space at regular intervals. They say this is how we will determine when it’s safe for all of humanity to return to the planet together. My time here is short. I must soon go to space myself. My new dream will be of the day when humans and Pokémon can once again live together on this planet."	N/A
	Observation notes	Notes	"The unknown ore discovered in my hometown’s bedrock possesses the positive qualities of multiple existing ores. Perhaps it’s not a single type of ore, but rather a mix of more than one? It would be a challenge to perform sufficient experimentation with just the sample I managed to bring here, but I sense some great potential..."	N/A
	Someone's journal #4	Notes	"This city was a dazzling metropolis the last time I came here with <player>. Now it’s barely recognizable. Apparently, the ground in this area has been rising up so quickly that it’s caused many of the buildings to collapse and the roads to crack. Some scientists believe that if things continue at this pace, in a matter of centuries this area will be... ..as high as a mountain, in terms of elevation. It looks like most of the people who once lived here have evacuated already. I suppose I should go, too. It breaks my heart to leave <player> behind, but it’s not forever. No matter what, I'll come back someday. And then <player> and I will travel the world!"	N/A
	Dear Douglas	Letters	"The price of vegetables has really gone up here in Viridian City since there’s been so little rain this year. Are things OK where you are, Douglas? I hope all that electricity in your city is making life a little easier over there. Anyway, if you ever need help, just let me know and I'll send you some vegetables. Love, Mom"	N/A
	Daily Porygon2 notes	Papers	"Companies involved in the space exploration industry are at each other's throat these days. I’m feeling the pain of it myself, as I’ve been put in charge of caring for some Porygon2 meant for planetary exploration. It’s a lot of work! Today, one of those three Porygon2 seems unwell. I ordered a patch that sounded effective and applied it, so I hope it will feel better tomorrow."	N/A
