Pokémon Pokopia: How to Get Netting

Craft it from Vine rope and Twine, or grab it free from a cracked-rock cave.

Netting is a crafting material in Pokémon Pokopia that you will need for certain recipes, including the “Seaweed and netting” build. You can either make it at a work bench or collect it from a hidden cave, and both routes are available fairly early once you can travel across water.

Quick answer: Craft Netting at any work bench under the Buildings tab using Vine rope and Twine, or break the cracked brown rocks blocking a cave to pick up several pieces of Netting off the ground.

Craft Netting at a work bench

The reliable way to get Netting on demand is to build it. The recipe sits in the Buildings tab of the crafting menu, so you need access to a work bench and the two required materials in your inventory or in a storage box placed next to the bench.

Head to a work bench. In the early game you can use the crafting table at Tipper’s house, which you reach by crossing the water.
Open the crafting menu and move to the Buildings tab, then highlight the Netting recipe.
Confirm the build once you have the materials. You can queue several at once if you are carrying enough Vine rope and Twine.

The two materials it uses are easy to gather while exploring:

MaterialHow to get it
Vine ropeUse Cut on vines; also dropped by Bellsprout and Weepinbell in their habitat
TwineBreak down textile garbage, cut cobwebs, or collect from Bug-types with the Litter specialty

Find Netting in the wild

If you would rather not spend materials, Netting also appears out in the world. A single piece sits near Corsola’s home, tucked next to some watermelons, and a larger stash waits inside a sealed cave.

Travel to the cave whose entrance is blocked by cracked brown rocks.
Break the cracked rocks to clear the way inside.
Enter and pick up the multiple pieces of Netting lying on the ground. Press Y to grab each one, or hold Y to inhale several nearby pieces at once.

What Netting is used for

Netting feeds into recipes rather than acting as a finished decoration on its own. One clear use is the “Seaweed and netting” recipe, listed as No. 006, which calls for Netting x4 and Lush seaweed x2. Keeping a small stock of Netting on hand means you can complete builds like this without a detour to gather more.

Between the work bench recipe and the cave stockpile, you have a steady supply either way. Craft it when you have Vine rope and Twine to spare, and raid the cracked-rock cave when you want a quick batch without touching your materials.
