Pokemon Pokopia - When Does a New Day Start

A new day in Pokemon Pokopia starts every 5 AM in local time. See what happens when a new day resets and what you can do.

When Does a New Day Start?

New Days Begin at 5 AM

Pokopia - Day Reset

New Days in Pokemon Pokopia begin everyday at 5 AM system time. This means that whenever your device's local clock hits 5 AM, it counts as a new day reset in Pokopia, and comes with the benefits of time-based progression.

How to Change the Time of Day

What Happens at the Start of the Day?

Building Progression

Pokopia - Houses

Usually, you will likely have buildings that are currently under construction and are slated to be completed the next day. As soon as the clock hits the 5 AM mark and the day progresses, these buildings will be marked as complete.

Plant Growth Progress

Plant the Beans Seed

When the day resets, plants that require multiple stages to grow will advance a stage to indicate time passing.

Drifloon Takes You to New Dream Islands

Visit Dream Island

Everyday, Drifloon can take you to new Dream Islands, giving you new sources of items such as Stardust.

How to Visit Dream Islands

Triggering New Events

Zorua Hide and Seek

Certain events in the game are time-gated, meaning a good amount of time needs to pass before these events are triggered, such as the initial meeting for Zorua and the Hide-and-Seek game.
