Befriend New Pokemon

Befriending Pokemon

The best way to raise your Environment Level is to befriend as many Pokemon as you can in an area. Pokemon can either spawn in habitats, or be encountered in the wild. If you encounter a Pokemon in the wild, you will need to build them a habitat according to their request in order to befriend them.

Build as many habitats as you can in order to spawn different types of Pokemon. Once a Pokemon appears, it is recommended to move it immediately into a house in order to free up the habitat for another Pokemon to spawn in.

Increase Comfort Level

Bulbasaur Comfort Level Increased
You will need to raise the Comfort Level of your Pokemon in order to raise the Environment Level. Comfort Levels can be increased by decorating habitats and houses according to a Pokemon's preference.

It's best to house Pokemon with similar preferences within the same area. The Pokemon will share the furniture you place as long as they're within the range of their habitats.

You can check the range of a Pokemon's habitat by pressing the Right Stick.

How to Increase Comfort Level

Ask Pokemon To Check On Their Comfort Level

Scyther Comfort Level

You can check on the Comfort Level of Pokemon by asking them "How's your comfort level?". This will allow you to see their current Comfort Level and receive hints on what a Pokemon is looking for.

A Pokemon will usually ask for food, a decoration, or a toy, so it's best to have those items within each of their habitats.

Check the Pokedex for Preferences

Pokemon Specialties and Likes

The Pokedex can show you the favorites and ideal habitats of specific Pokemon. When you decorate a home with a Pokemon's preferred items, it will greatly increase their Comfort Level.

Build Houses For All Pokemon

Moving a Pokemon to a House

The fastest way to increase your Environment Level is by moving Pokemon into houses instead of letting them stay in a habitat. Building homes for your Pokemon makes their Comfort Level increase faster and gives you more room to decorate.

Complete Requests

Scyther

Completing Requests increases the Comfort Level of Pokemon. Pokemon also tend to reward you with new moves, recipes, items, or decorations when you complete their requests. This will give you more tools for increasing the Environment Level.

Play Mini Games

Pokemon Pokopia - Time to Jump

You can play mini games with certain Pokemon such as jump rope, hide-and-seek, and the random quizzes they'll ask you. Playing games with Pokemon allows their Comfort Level to increase even if you didn't do such a good job.

What is the Maximum Environment Level?

Environment Level 10

Environment Level 10 Max

Level 10 is the highest Environment Level you can reach in an area. Each area will have a different Environment Level for you to increase.

The game will require you to reach at least level 5 in each area in order to finish the main story of the game.

List of Areas and Biomes

Environment Level Can Go Down

Environment Level Down

Take note that Environment Level can decrease at any point if your Pokemon comfort levels are no longer enough to maintain the level—even if you've already reached the maximum Environment Level.

Any unlocked items in the shop will also get locked again if your Environment Level no longer fulfills the unlock requirement.

Environment Level Rewards

More Shop Items

Unlock the Shop

Leveling up your Environment Level unlocks new shop items in the PC. This will get you access to more decorations, items, building kits, and habitat hints to improve your environment.

Shop items are shared across all Pokemon Center PCs. This means that once you unlock an item in the shop, you can purchase it from any PC in your game world.

However, if your Environment Level decreases, any shop items that were unlocked above your current level will be locked again.

Best Items to Buy First

More Challenges

New Challenges in PC
You will also unlock new Challenges when you level up. New Challenges gives you more means of earning Life Coins, which can be used to purchase items from the Shop.

Allows Access to Game Ending

Pokemon Pokopia requires you to reach at least Level 5 for your Environment Level in each area in order to reach the game's ending sequence.

As such, leveling up your Environment Level will gradually contribute to being able to completely finish the game.
