Pokemon Pokopia announces Sableye’s Gem Hunt event

Sableye’s Gem Hunt has been revealed as he latest Pokemon Pokopia event, and full details about what toe expect have been released. It will run between April 29, 2026 at 5 AM to May 14 at 4:59 AM.

This goes without saying, but Sableye is the highlight of the event. The creature will appear near rebuilt Pokemon Centers. Players can befriend it to receive a request to collect red crystal fragments, which you can find on Dream Islands.

Here’s some additional information:

To summon Drifloon to take you to a Dream Island, interact with any doll. While on the Dream Island, collect as many red crystal fragments as you can find. When you return home, bring those fragments to Sableye at the Pokémon Center to exchange them for themed items, including furniture, building kits, and more. After the event is over, Sableye will stick around town with your other Pokémon friends.

Don’t forget that Sableye will only visit towns with a rebuilt Pokémon Center, so if you want to participate in this event, get those Pokémon Centers up and running.
