How to Move Water in Pokopia

Learn how to pick up and move water in Pokopia with this step-by-step guide. This mechanic is unlocked through progression with Pit Blub and allows you to create waterfalls and manipulate water in your world.

Prerequisites: Progress with Pit Blub

Before you can move water, you’ll need to complete work with Pit Blub. Pit Blub will eventually ask you to make a waterfall, which serves as the introduction to this water manipulation mechanic. Once Pit Blub mentions that you can now suck up water, you’re ready to proceed.

Getting the Water-Moving Ability from Wupa

Locating Wupa

To unlock the water-moving ability, you need to travel to the muddy water area located just over from Pit Blub’s location. In this muddy water area, you’ll need to make four bushes, which will reward you with Wupa.

Learning from Wupa

Once you encounter Wupa, they will teach you how to move water. This is your unlock point for the water manipulation mechanic.

How to Move Water: Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Position Yourself in Water

The first and most crucial step is to stand directly in the water where you want to collect it. This is essential—you must be standing in the water to perform the next actions.

Step 2: Hold Y and Use Right Trigger

Hold down the Y button as if you’re sucking in air (similar to how you collect items). While holding Y, press the right trigger. This action will suck up the water around you, just like inhaling air to pick up items.

Step 3: Move to Your Desired Location

Once you’ve collected water, move to the location where you want to place it. You can move freely while holding water.

Step 4: Spit Out the Water

Release the water by spitting it out at your target location. This will place the water where you’ve aimed, allowing you to create waterfalls and other water features.

Important Tips for Success

Make sure you’re always standing in the water before attempting to collect it. Breathe in (hold Y) properly before using the right trigger to ensure you successfully pick up water. If you struggle on your first attempt, don’t worry—the mechanic takes practice.

Multiple Water Placements

You can spit out water multiple times to create larger structures. For example, you can place water in several locations to build complex waterfalls or water arrangements. The exact capacity of water you can hold at once isn’t clearly defined, but it appears you can place water in multiple spots, suggesting you may have either a generous capacity or potentially unlimited water availability once collected.

Conclusion

Moving water in Pokopia is a straightforward mechanic once unlocked: stand in water, hold Y and press the right trigger to collect it, move to your desired location, and spit it out. With practice, you’ll be able to create impressive waterfalls and water features for Pit Blub and throughout your Pokopia world. Don’t hesitate to experiment with multiple water placements to see what creative structures you can build!
