Which game engine is listed for Pokémon Pokopia?

Pokémon Pokopia is listed as using the Katana Engine.

The engine appears in the game’s technical information alongside its developers, platform, genres, and modes. Katana Engine is therefore the specific engine associated with Pokopia in its published game details.

This fact is separate from the game’s genre. Pokopia is described as a social simulation and sandbox game, while Katana Engine identifies the technology listed for running it. Mixing those categories can lead to answers such as “sandbox,” which describes gameplay rather than the engine.

Pokopia’s technical identity also includes its development by Game Freak and Omega Force and its release for Nintendo Switch 2. Together, these details distinguish the title from Pokémon games built for other platforms or described with different technology.
