Fans are beyond excited to dive back into the game, especially now that they get to go below the surface and explore the depths of the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>While teasers have given players a glance at what&#8217;s to come, there&#8217;s still plenty that remains a mystery. Japan&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.famitsu.com\/article\/202608\/83277\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Famitsu<\/a> got to try out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/pokemon-pokopia-bubbly-basin-dlc-new-details\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">first part of the Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia expansion pass<\/a> during development. The magazine shared the experience in an intriguing article, providing new details about what&#8217;s to come in Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia update v2.0.0, as well as Bubbly Basin.<\/p>\n<p>Confirmed to be added to the Pok\u00e9dex in Bubbly Basin are Pok\u00e9mon Diglett, Golisopod, Stunfisk, and Sharpedo. With the expansion pass, players will be able to build habitats for these creatures and befriend them. The base game allows players to have the Dive ability and go underwater, but they will not be able to register Pok\u00e9mon, as they inhabit Bubbly Basin.<\/p>\n<p>Besides Dive, gamers can use their other abilities underwater, and there is even an upgrade for the Surf move that will make their lives much easier while below the surface. In Bubbly Basin, players can obtain a blender, which allows them to make smoothies and power up Surf. Once upgraded, the move will receive a speed boost and allow players to destroy underwater blocks.<\/p>\n<p>As some Pok\u00e9mon Pokopia players might have a hard time keeping their bearings and may experience motion sickness, the game&#8217;s developers have added visual indicators to address that. Players will be able to view the underwater action with a frame and an icon at the very center of the screen to help orientate them.<\/p>\n<p>Another great feature that&#8217;s coming Aug. 5 for free is a special container that can be placed in several towns. The loot inside can always be accessed regardless of where it was originally placed. In total. In total, it will have 140 free slots.<\/p>\n<p>This way, players won&#8217;t have to constantly fast-travel somewhere to find an item. It&#8217;s a game-changing feature, especially for fans who have storage boxes scattered across the map or a large inventory and cannot recall where they might&#8217;ve left something.
