## Accessories, Pokémon and furniture

This installment lets you dress Ditto and your Pokémon neighbors in accessories. Previously revealed examples include sunglasses, bow ties and a Sylveon ribbon, giving you more ways to coordinate outfits with your friends. More Pokémon and new furniture and items are also on the way.

**Part 2 does not add a new town.** Its focus is expanding customization and the Pokémon you can meet in your existing world. The next new town belongs to Part 3, planned for 2027.

## What you need before starting

- Pokémon Pokopia and the paid **Expansion Pass**.
- The free **version 3.0.0** software update.
- Complete the important requests **“Raise the environment level!”** and **“Rebuild the Pokémon Center!”** in **Withered Wasteland**.
- Complete Drifloon’s request **“Find a doll!”**.

You can work through those requests ahead of release. Installing the free update alone does not grant access to the paid DLC; if you already own the pass, Part 2 is included in that purchase.

## Where it fits in the Expansion Pass

Part 1, **Bubbly Basin**, has been available since August 5, 2026. Dazzling Decorations follows on December 9, and Part 3 is scheduled for 2027. The pass contains all three installments, which cannot be purchased separately.
