How to Unlock the Glowing Stage for Three Habitat in Pokémon Pokopia

Route power along the underwater corridor with 15 wireless transmitter posts to restore habitat No. 030.

Route power along the underwater corridor with 15 wireless transmitter posts to restore habitat No. 030.

The Glowing stage for three (No. 030) is a Rare habitat in the Bubbly Basin, and it stays locked until you supply power to a submerged stage. Restoring it draws in Wugtrio (No. 047), the trio Pokémon the stage is built for. The whole process runs through Chinchou and a crafting recipe you earn from it.

Quick answer: Build the Fluffy relaxation habitat to attract Chinchou, finish Chinchou’s quest to unlock the Wireless power-transmitter post recipe, craft posts with Glass and Pokemetal, then place them down the underwater corridor and set the final post on the stage next to Chinchou.

What you need before starting

Everything begins with Chinchou (No. 011). This Water and Electric Pokémon has the Generate specialty, which is why it powers the stage. You get it by building a specific habitat first, not by finding it in the wild.

Fluffy relaxation is described in-game as a soothing spot made with a huge cushion bed and a fluffy doll. Once it’s set up, Chinchou appears and gives you its quest.


Unlock and craft the wireless power-transmitter posts

Build the Fluffy relaxation habitat and wait for Chinchou to show up. Talk to it to accept the quest, which is the only way to learn the Wireless power-transmitter post recipe.

Head to the crafting bench near Chinchou’s location. Each Wireless power-transmitter post costs 2 Glass and 2 Pokemetal, so gather enough of both before you commit.
Craft 15 posts in total. You’ll see the confirmation message “You made 15 wireless power-transmitter posts!” once the batch is done. That’s the exact number needed to bridge the power gap to the stage.

Route power to the stage and restore the habitat

The stage is powered by placing posts that carry electricity from the source, through the underwater corridor, and onto the stage itself. Each post links to the next, so keep them connected in a line as you go.

Travel underwater into the corridor that leads toward the stage. This is where the run of transmitter posts goes.

Place your posts along the corridor, keeping them in an unbroken chain so power flows from one to the next all the way down.
Put the final transmitter on the stage, right next to Chinchou. This closes the connection and lights the stage.

How to confirm it worked

When the last post connects, the stage comes to life and the game confirms it with the message “You’ve restored a glowing stage for three habitat!” followed by the description “A shiny stage perfect for a trio. Gather everyone and get singing!”

At that point, habitat No. 030 flips from locked to discovered in your Habitat Dex, and Wugtrio can begin visiting the trio stage.

Note: If the stage doesn’t activate, the usual cause is a break in the chain. Check that every post is placed and linked along the corridor, and confirm the final one sits on the stage beside Chinchou rather than off to the side.
