Pokopia gains a free August update adding underwater Dive for all Ditto plus the first of three paid expansion updates introducing Bubbly Basin and new Pokemon. The changes address visible but locked underwater content that has frustrated builders since launch.

The new Dive feature addresses that limitation and removes the need for players to suck up the entire ocean to access building projects.
