12 Legendary & Mythical Pokémon

Legendary & Mythical Pokémon

Every Legendary in Pokopia and exactly how to unlock them. Befriending any Legendary makes it easier to raise the Environment Level of the area they live in.

Legendary and Mythical Pokémon behave like other Pokémon in Pokopia — they have Favourites, specialties, and a Comfort Level — but with one crucial difference: raising a Legendary’s Comfort Level accelerates the Environment Level of their home biome faster than any other Pokémon.

Some arrive during the main story. Others drop into Dream Islands or require endgame building projects. This page is the single reference for how to befriend all 12.
