Pokopia Patches Jirachi Event Exploit With June 23 Online Check

Summary
Pokopia’s newly announced Wish Upon A Jirachi event will run from 5 a.m. local time on June 23 to 4:59 a.m. on July 8, but players can no longer unlock it early by changing their Switch 2 clocks.
An update added an online connectivity requirement that appears designed to verify event availability against live servers rather than the console’s internal calendar.
The fix targets a widely used “time-travel” exploit that had let players access new event Pokemon ahead of schedule by jumping the system date forward.
Jirachi is the next limited-time addition to Pokopia’s expanding Pokedex, signaling tighter control by The Pokemon Company over how future event rollouts are gated.
