What to build next in Bubbly Basin
This page has no inputs of its own. It reads the two lists you keep elsewhere on the site and does the arithmetic.
Inputs
Output
48 Pokémon still to catch. For the rest, one set that covers them all: 30 habitats to build, 65 distinct materials. (Phione and Manaphy are not in that count — they do not come from habitats.)
- Phione — Obtained with the Starmie Doll — not tied to a habitat.
- Manaphy — Obtained through story progression — not tied to a habitat.

What this plan is, and what it is not
The habitats are picked greedily: each round takes whichever unbuilt habitat covers the most Pokémon you still need, with ties going to the one needing fewer distinct materials. That is coverage-first. It is not minimising your material bill, and it is not guaranteed to be the smallest possible set of habitats — it is a sane order to build in, not a proof of optimality.
The quantities above are what the plan costs, not what you are short of. This site cannot see your inventory, your storage or your bag, so it has no idea how many Seabed Flowers you are already sitting on. Marking habitats as built is the one correction it can apply: those drop out of the plan entirely.
Everything here is calculated in your browser from the habitat table. None of it is a figure quoted from a guide.
Habitat and Pokédex data compiled from game8 and Nintendo Life and cross-checked. Value ratios, material totals and build orders are calculated on this site, not copied from either of them.
