The Wish Upon a Jirachi event is now live in Pokémon Pokopia, and it plays out differently from anything the game has run before. Instead of farming Cloud Island resources like previous events required, this one runs entirely through Pokémon requests. Complete them, collect Shining Wish Notes, and trade them with Jirachi inside a reconstructed Pokémon Center for 10 exclusive decorations. Here's everything you need to know.
What makes the Jirachi event different from previous events?
Earlier limited-time events in Pokémon Pokopia, including the Jumpluff evolution line event and the Sableye event, required players to gather resources from Cloud Islands. The Jirachi event scraps that system entirely. Your progress here depends on completing Pokémon requests, which rewards you with Shining Wish Notes that you then exchange directly with Jirachi.
This is a cleaner loop for players who found Cloud Island farming tedious, and it means your progression scales with how many requests you can knock out during the event window. There's no cap on how many Shining Wish Notes you can earn, so grinding requests is genuinely worth your time if you want multiples of any decoration.
Jirachi's trade screen
All Wish Upon a Jirachi limited-time items
There are exactly 10 items available during this event, and every single one costs 1 Shining Wish Note. That flat cost makes prioritization straightforward: grab the pieces you want most first, then keep farming for the rest.
The full set leans into a starry, celestial theme that fits Jirachi's wish-granting identity. The Jirachi Lamp and Cloud Cannon stand out as the most distinctive pieces, while the Starry-Sky Bed and Star-Shaped Dresser pair well together for interior builds. The Telescope is a solid standalone decoration if you're building a more general outdoor or observatory-style area.

Can you buy multiple items in the Jirachi event?
Yes. There's no purchase limit on any individual item, and no ceiling on Shining Wish Notes. That means you can buy every item in the table above and then keep spending notes on duplicates to build out a fully Jirachi-themed town if that's the direction you want to take your build.
The catch is time. Once the event ends, Jirachi leaves the Pokémon Center and stops accepting Shining Wish Notes. Any unspent notes won't carry over, so don't sit on them. Prioritize your most-wanted pieces early and fill in the rest as you accumulate more notes through requests.

What happens to Jirachi after the event?
Jirachi doesn't disappear from your town permanently once the event wraps. As long as you've built the appropriate Habitat for Jirachi before the event ends, the Pokémon can remain in your town after the exchange period closes. The decorations you've already collected stay with you too, so the build you create during the event is permanent.
This is worth keeping in mind if you're on the fence about grinding requests. The items and the Pokémon are both yours to keep, which makes the time investment more worthwhile than a typical limited-time cosmetic event.
If you're still building out your town and want to know which shop purchases give you the biggest early advantage, the best items to buy first in Pokémon Pokopia guide is worth reading before you spend your resources.
The Jirachi event is one of the more accessible limited-time runs in Pokémon Pokopia so far, and the flat 1-note cost per item means you're never locked out of a specific decoration by a steep price wall. Get the requests done, spend the notes, and build the celestial town you want before the window closes.
