Who directed Pokémon Pokopia?

Pokémon Pokopia was directed by Shigeru Ohmori and Takuto Edagawa.

The two directors are credited with guiding the game’s development. Shigeru Ohmori is a longtime Pokémon developer who has held major creative roles on several series entries, while Takuto Edagawa is also credited in Pokopia’s development leadership.

Pokopia’s concept centers on creating a Pokémon world rather than simply traveling through one. Players rebuild areas, establish habitats, and attract Pokémon by arranging environments that suit them. That creative direction explains why the game differs so strongly from the standard Pokémon adventure structure.

Director credits are sometimes confused with producer, writer, designer, or composer credits. Pokopia separately lists contributors in those roles, but the director credit specifically names Ohmori and Edagawa. Because both names are part of the official credit pairing, neither director alone is the complete answer.
