Pokemon Pokopia: Where to Dig for Treasure Map #2 in Bubbly Basin

Follow the beach-and-windmill clue underwater to reach the hidden room holding the golden Poké Ball.

Follow the beach-and-windmill clue underwater to reach the hidden room holding the golden Poké Ball.

Treasure Map #2 in Pokemon Pokopia sends you to the Bubbly Basin, where the marked spot sits below the surface rather than on the beach itself. The map shows a coastline with a yellow house, a dock, and a red “X” placed right next to a pink windmill. The reward for reaching it is a golden Poké Ball resting on a pedestal.

Quick answer: Dive at Bubbly Basin, swim to the middle-left of the underwater map beside the green-roofed house and the pink-and-blue coral, then use Shallow dive to dig into the seafloor. This opens a secret room with the golden Poké Ball treasure.

Reading the Treasure Map #2 clue

Open Treasure Map #2 from your inventory to see the drawing. It pictures a beach scene with a yellow house, a dock, and a pink windmill, with the red “X” sitting right beside that windmill. The in-game prompt tells you there should be something at the marked spot and suggests bringing a Pokémon with the Search specialty to help pinpoint it.

The key detail is that the “X” does not point to a landmark on dry land. The target is underwater, so you need to dive rather than dig on the surface.


How to reach the treasure in Bubbly Basin

Travel to the Bubbly Basin. Start from the surface, where your marker sits toward the far right corner of the area before you go under.

Dive underwater and check your map. Swim toward the middle-left section, aiming for the green-roofed house surrounded by colorful coral.
Line up next to the patch of pink and blue coral. This is the exact digging spot that matches the “X” on the map.

Use the Shallow dive action to break into the seafloor beside the coral. The ground opens up and gives you access below.
Enter the secret room and walk up to the pedestal. Use Pick Up to collect the golden Poké Ball treasure sitting on top.

Confirming you found it

You know the spot is correct when the Shallow dive prompt appears at the coral and opens the entrance to the secret room. Inside, the golden Poké Ball sits alone on a pedestal, and picking it up completes the map. If nothing happens when you dig, you are likely too far from the pink and blue coral, so reposition against that patch and try again.

Note: If you are struggling to line up the exact tile, bring a Pokémon with the Search specialty, as the game itself recommends this for finding marked treasure spots.
