Summary

  • June 23 marks the start of Pokémon Pokopia’s “Wish Upon a Jirachi” event, which lets players befriend Jirachi and runs through July 8.
  • Players begin by talking to Jirachi for a wish note recipe, then complete other Pokémon’s requests to turn wish notes into sparkling wish notes.
  • Sparkling wish notes can be exchanged at a rebuilt Pokémon Center for starry sky-themed furniture and décor tied to the limited-time event.
  • A rebuilt Pokémon Center is required for Jirachi to appear, and the event will not trigger if the Switch 2 system date and time do not match the event period.
