Pokemon Pokopia has revealed some additional pre-order bonuses, giving players extra incentive to sign up for the first-ever official Pokemon life sim ahead of its release. These pre-order bonuses come from different sources and retailers, so Pokemon Pokepia fans may want to do a little research ahead of time to see which bonuses are the most appealing to them.

The release date for Pokemon Pokopia is set for March 5, giving fans just under a month before they can take their first dive into its cozy content. Taking on the role of a Ditto that has assumed human form, players will interact with the game's environment through a deep system of crafting and building mechanics, befriending lots of different Pokemon along the way. Establishing friendships with these other Pokemon will allow players to learn some additional moves to help them tame the wilderness, and as their building skills increase, even more Pokemon will be attracted to the area, establishing a simple yet satisfying-sounding gameplay loop.

PRE-ORDER YOURS NOW!

Pre-ordering Pokemon Pokopia on Amazon will get players an exclusive Flat Leaf Plant decoration to be used in the game. This bonus will arrive in the form of a digital code which must be redeemed no later than February 10, 2027, but it will only be available to pre-order customers. While Amazon's promotion is the only one that doesn't provide fans with something to use in the world outside the game, it does provide a tiny bit of in-game flair that others enjoying Pokemon Pokopia's features won't be able to experience.

The Pokemon Center

The Pokemon Center's preorder bonus for Pokemon Pokopia was the first one to be announced, giving fans a plush version of Ditto, though not in its human form as depicted in the upcoming cozy life sim. The Ditto Sitting Cuties Plush measures 4.75 inches in height and 4.5 inches in width, giving fans of The Transform Pokemon a nice accessory they can add to their tabletops or shelves. Plushes of Ditto disguised as other Pokemon have been a popular trend among collectors of Pokemon accessories in recent years, so the chance to get one in its original form could be pretty enticing for Pokemon Pokopia players.

Best Buy

Best Buy is the latest outlet to give fans a reason to pre-order Pokemon Pokopia, recently revealing a canvas tote bag featuring different images inspired by the game on both sides. The front of the bag features the game's logo, as well as a large image of the player-controlled Ditto in human form sitting on a patch of grass with a cheerful Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. On the back, the bag features three different vignettes of the player character with each of the three Gen-1 starters, showing a little bit of personality in each, with the Ditto transforming its arms into vines with Bulbasaur, spitting a jet of water with Squirtle, and dancing around a fire with Charmander. This canvas tote bag comes as a bonus for anyone who pre-orders Pokemon Pokopia from Best Buy in either its digital or physical format.

In addition to these retailer-specific bonuses, anyone who purchases Pokemon Pokopia early will receive a Ditto Rug to be used in-game. Players will be able to retrieve this bonus from the Mystery Gift feature packaged with the game, but they will have to claim it before January 31, 2027. It's not entirely clear whether this counts as a pre-order bonus or if anyone who purchases the game before that date will be able to claim it, but it will be available for players who purchase either a digital copy of the game or the Switch 2 Game-Key Card physical version, and it should provide players with an early option for adding a little visual flair to their houses in Pokemon Pokopia. The game is also available for pre-order through other retailers, including GameStop and the Nintendo eShop, though no additional pre-order bonuses have been announced.
