Pokémon Pokopia 'Fetch Scales for Feebas' event guide

The "Fetch Scales for Feebas" event in Pokémon Pokopia brings the fun and colors only a day on the beach can offer. During this seasonal event, you have the chance to help Feebas to recover its lost treasures — beautiful shiny scales. If you find them, the fish Pokémon promises to properly reward you for the help. Below, you'll find all you need to complete Pokémon Pokopia "Fetch Scales for Feebas" event, as well as all the rewards and habitats you can obtain from it. How to start the Pokémon Pokopia 'Fetch Scales for Feebas' event You can help Feebas in Pokémon Pokopia's "Fetch Scales for Feebas" event from Aug. 12 at 5 a.m. until Aug. 28 at 4:59 a.m. local time, based on your Nintendo Switch's console time. The only prerequisite to participate in this event is to have rebuilt at least one Pokémon Center. Image: Koei Tecmo, Game Freak/Nintendo, The Pokémon Company via Polygon After booting up the game for the first time once the event begins, you will see a message saying, "A Pokémon is the talk of the town." This is your cue to head to a rebuilt Pokémon Center to meet Feebas and learn about the Prism Scales, its lost treasures. By finding scales, you can exchange them for rewards by talking to the fish Pokémon inside any rebuilt Pokémon center throughout the duration of the event. While you become friends with Feebas right at the beginning of the event, you can also find Milotic by making one of the two new event habitats. If you miss the opportunity to exchange Prism Scales for the "Fetch Scales for Feebas" rewards, don't worry. You can obtain a copy of the furnishings by using the 3D printer. How to find Prism Scales in Pokémon Pokopia If you plan on helping Feebas to recover its treasures, you must ask for Drifloon's help, because you can only find Prism Scales in Dream Islands. You come across a few of them basically everywhere on any island, and in places like Starmie doll's Dream Island, you can locate them both under the water and outside of it.

Although there's a limit of only one island per day, you can go as many times as you want to the same island — so you have time to collect Prism Scales as well as do other activities in the game. All Pokémon Pokopia 'Fetch Scales for Feebas' event rewards The "Fetch Scales for Feebas" adds six new items to Pokémon Pokopia, and in order to obtain all of them, you will need a total of 60 Prism Scales. A single trip to a Dream Island can yield more than 70 scales, but if you don't have enough to buy them all, consider leaving the floating lantern out of your buying list, since you don't need it to make the new event habitats.
