Squishy clay is one of the first “slow” materials in Pokémon Pokopia. On its own it is used for plates, mugs, tea sets and vases, but its real value is that it is the only way to make **bricks**, which you need for the Bleak Beach Pokémon Center (30 of them), brick roofs, steps and walls. Here is where to get clay in bulk and how to turn it into bricks.

        ## Where to find Squishy clay

                    SourceDetails

                    Withered WastelandsClay blocks inside the cave near where Onix was trapped. They are slightly lighter and browner than normal rock

                    Bleak BeachThe richest area: clay blocks are scattered all along the shoreline

                    Dream Island (Pikachu Doll)Plenty of clay blocks, and they refill every visit

                    Litter PokémonPaldean Wooper, Clodsire and Trapinch bring you clay on their own

        To break clay blocks you need **Rock Smash** (or Rollout once you have it). Eating a hamburger steak powers up Rock Smash so you break more blocks per hit.

        ## Let your Pokémon farm it for you

        Pokémon with the **Litter** specialty bring you an item every so often without you doing anything. For clay, the ones to recruit are **Paldean Wooper**, **Clodsire** and **Trapinch**. The higher their Comfort Level, the more items they bring, so give them a nice house close to a storage box and check it every day.

        ## How to make bricks

            - Recruit a Pokémon with the **Burn** specialty, such as Charmander or Torchic.

            - Talk to it with Squishy clay in your Bag and choose to hand it over.

            - It bakes the clay into **Bricks**. You can give it a whole stack at once.

        Burn Pokémon can also set fire to flammable objects, so keep them away from your wooden decorations.

        ## What bricks and clay are used for

            - **Bricks:** the Bleak Beach Pokémon Center, brick steps, brick walls, every brick roof piece, planters and the stone fireplace.

            - **Clay:** plates, mugs, tea sets, table settings, small vases and some flower decorations.

        > **Tip:** the Bleak Beach Pokémon Center alone needs 30 bricks. Set up a Paldean Wooper or Trapinch habitat as soon as you can and let them work while you play the story, so the bricks are ready when the area reaches level 3.
