Pokémon Pokopia’s Bubbly Basin DLC could break the curse of underwater levels

During the June 2026 Nintendo Direct, Koei Tecmo and Game Freak revealed their post-launch DLC plans for Pokémon Pokopia. In August, we’re getting a brand-new biome called Bubbly Basin, and it’s arriving alongside a new move: Dive. This will let players breathe underwater, opening up a whole host of possibilities for new discoveries, items, Pokémon habitats, and more.
