  "account": "Pokémon Pokopia hosts limited-time events throughout the year, each offering unique items and Pokémon. Players need not worry too much about missing out, as they can access these events by time traveling using their system clock on a Nintendo Switch 2. The events vary, with some focusing on mini games and others involving special event Pokémon collecting items for unique furniture and decor.\n\nAs of writing, there are eight known events in Pokémon Pokopia. These include a short April Fools' Day event, two mini game-focused events, and five events where players help special event Pokémon collect items. Players can freely time travel to any of these events by adjusting their system clock in the Nintendo Switch 2 settings. It is essential to remember that a new day begins at 5 a.m. each day, so players must ensure their clock is set past that time on the event's listed date to experience the event content. The events conclude at 4:59 a.m. on the specified date.\n\nWhile players are free to use the 3D printer in Pokémon Centers to print most items from these events, the events themselves are only available during their designated times. To help new players get started, guides are available for sprucing up their island, including a Pokédex and Habitat Dex. These tools assist players in understanding what can spawn where and what is needed to summon their favorite creatures.\n\nFor those feeling overwhelmed, a beginner's guide offers early tips and tricks to make their journey smoother. Additionally, walkthroughs are provided for important story requests such as Yawn up a Storm!, Brighten Things Up!, Time to Party!, and Build the Huge Building!. Players looking to play with friends should note the restrictions for the regular Pokopia multiplayer and GameShare version.",
