Nintendo Life has published a guide to Pokémon Pokopia's limited-time "Zorua Hide-and-Sneak" event, which runs from Sunday 19th to Monday 27th July 2026. Players must have rebuilt a Pokémon Center and speak to Zorua outside it to begin a mini-game in which they must sneak past patrolling Pokémon to reach the Center's PC undetected within two minutes and 30 seconds.

The guide recommends using the Camouflage transformation, which warns players via a speech bubble and heartbeat sound when they've been spotted, and notes that starting position and location choice (such as Bleak Beach's canal) can make the task easier. Rewards scale with speed, ranging from basic items such as Lumber and Leppa Berries for slower times up to Rainbow and Silver Feathers, a Star Piece and rare Pokémetal for finishing in under 20 seconds, with a Hide-and-Sneak Trophy also recording the player's best time.
