Pokémon Pokopia: How to get the Suck ability to move water around

Pokémon Pokopia for Nintendo Switch 2 is officially the biggest game in the universe, or at least it feels like it if you look at social media. But not everyone is having a friction-free time navigating its Minecraft-inspired mechanics.

For example, some players online have gotten stuck when it comes to learning the Suck ability. This is one of the protagonist Ditto's powers it can learn over the course of the game's story, each of which is crucial to building the Pokémon island of your dreams. Progressing in Pokopia can occasionally be a little confusing, so allow us to help out. Here is how to learn Suck in Pokémon Pokopia.

How suck up water in Pokopia

In case you aren't aware, Suck is an ability that allows Ditto to vacuum up water and displace it somewhere else. This can be useful for clearing flooded areas or creating creeks or ponds of your own, which can either be useful for aesthetic purposes or for summoning new Pokémon via habitats that require water.

If you really want to move water around but don't have Suck yet, don't fret. The solution, according to the internet, is to just keep playing through the story. Specifically, per Reddit, the first thing you need to do is progress far enough in the Rocky Ridges area to build the Pokémon center there. This will take some time, as building a Pokémon center is usually the culmination of lots of other smaller questlines in a given area.

Once that's done, you should be able to get a request from Piplup in the Bleak Beach area to create a waterfall. In order to create said waterfall, you'll need to get a Paldean Wooper to come help out. This can be done by creating a "marshy tall grass" habitat, which consists of four yellow tall grass tiles near a body of muddy water.

Put those components down, wait a bit, and eventually, Paldean Wooper should show up and kickstart the process of teaching Ditto how to use Suck.
