Author: Pokopia Guide Team

Overview of the Painting System

In Pokopia, there is a "Painting" system that allows you to freely customize the colors of furniture and buildings. There are two main ways to change colors:

  1. Request Master Dot-C — Take furniture to the NPC to have the colors or patterns changed.
  2. Use Coloring Balloons — Throw crafted balloons at furniture or buildings to change their color.

Painting Unlock Conditions

The painting system is unlocked upon reaching Bleak Beach. It becomes available by talking to Master Dotsea (NPC) located on the south side of the town.

How to Obtain Paint

Method 1: Crushing Berries (Crush Skill)

If you give Berries to a Pokémon skilled in "Crush," they will process them into paint. The color varies depending on the type of Berry.

Painting Tips

  1. White and Black are rare — Since you need to crush a large amount of Berries, keep crushing and stocking up on any extra basic-colored Berries.
  2. Multi-part support — Some furniture allows you to change the colors of two different parts individually. Enjoy experimenting with combinations!
  3. Over 200 compatible items — A wide range of items are supported, including furniture, kitchenware, decorations, walls, floors, roofs, and fences.
  4. Patterns consume more paint — Applying a pattern requires 1 to 3 units of paint.
