How to Get Lumber Fast in Pokopia (Complete Guide)

Guide Overview

How to Get Lumber Fast in Pokopia Lumber is one of the most essential resources in the early game of Pokémon Pokopia . You'll need it for everything from building your first habitats to restoring the Withered Wasteland Pokémon Center. While you might occasionally find small wood piles in the overworld, the most efficient way to get Lumber is through the Chop Specialty and the Cut Move . Key Steps to Get Lumber Find Scyther : Build a "Tree-Shaded Tall Grass" habitat. Learn Cut : Complete Scyther's request to learn the move. Collect Small Logs : Use Cut on trees or lumber piles. Process into Lumber : Give Small Logs to a Pokémon with the Chop Specialty . 1. How to Find Scyther Scyther is the first Pokémon you'll encounter that can help you with lumber. To attract one, you need to create its favorite habitat in the Withered Wasteland . Building the Tree-Shaded Tall Grass Habitat Requirements : Place 4 Tall Grass tiles around a Large Tree . Pro-Tips : Use Water Gun to water trees. Use Leafage (Press ZR to switch moves) to create the grass tiles. Wait for the grass to shake, indicating a Pokémon has arrived. 2. Learning the Cut Move Once Scyther appears, talk to it. It will have an orange speech bubble. Request : Scyther wants 2 Sturdy Sticks . Reward : It will teach you the Cut Move . Usage : Press ZR to cycle through your moves until you select Cut. 3. How to Get Small Logs Lumber cannot be gathered directly; you must first gather Small Logs . Where to find : Look for large piles of wood blocking paths around the Pokémon Center ruins. Action : Use your newly learned Cut move on these piles to break them into Small Logs. Warning : You can also cut down trees, but we recommend keeping them for Berries and habitats early on. 4. Processing Small Logs into Lumber This is where the Chop Specialty comes in. Scyther (and later Pokémon like Pinsir) has this ability. The Exchange : 1 Small Log = 5 Lumber . The Process : Give a Small Log to Scyther. It will begin "wailing away" at the log with its blades. Real-Time Crafting : It takes time to process. Since Pokopia uses a real-time clock, you can leave the game or explore, and the Pokémon will finish the job while you're away. Fast Farming Tip : Log in during the morning to hand over your logs, and they'll be ready for your building session in the evening! Lumber Requirements for Main Quests To rebuild the Withered Wasteland Pokémon Center , you will need 10 Lumber . This means you only need to process 2 Small Logs with Scyther's help.
