"Rather than taking the Animal Crossing approach where each island has a "host" player that must be present for you to access it, is giving players persistent worlds that no one person has to be online for you to reach. That way, multiple players can cultivate one of its reinvigorated Pokémon towns without having to drag one person into the play session, though it will have some restrictions."
""There is a different system that is unique to this game called the 'cloud island,' Edagawa said. "This is an island that everyone can create together, and even if the host (the island's owner) is not online, everyone is free to join and play. If you can't find the time to meet up and play together, you can still work together to build the island little by little in your free time.""
Pokémon Pokopia will use a cloud island feature from Koei Tecmo to create persistent shared islands that do not require the island owner to be online for access. Multiple players can join and collaborate on island building and cultivate reinvigorated Pokémon towns together. Only four players can be present on an island at the same time, placing a limit on simultaneous contributors and potentially requiring larger groups to take turns. Players can contribute gradually in their free time without coordinating sessions. A ghost-like white Pikachu form called Peakychu appears, suggesting post-apocalyptic thematic elements in the game.
