Up to four people can play together in Pokémon Pokopia’s multiplayer mode. The game supports both online multiplayer and local wireless multiplayer, allowing players to visit and build in a shared paradise.
Nintendo also supports GameShare for the title. A player on Nintendo Switch 2 can share access with someone who does not own the game, although the shared access lasts only for the session and has specific hardware requirements.
The four-person limit includes the host and visiting players. It is therefore different from the number of Pokémon that may appear in a settlement or from the number of people who can receive a GameShare invitation over time.
Online play requires Nintendo Switch Online, an internet connection, and a Nintendo Account. Local wireless play requires one console and one copy of the software per player, so the modes have different practical requirements despite sharing the same four-player maximum.
