Below you'll find our Mochi Mayhem walkthrough covering everything you need to do in order to complete the epilogue for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

Before you get started, however, make sure you get the Mythical Pecha Berry as, without it, you won't be able to access Mochi Mayhem. You also need to ensure you've fully completed both the main campaign for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, including The Way Home, and The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC.

Once you've done that, or if you've already done so already, it's time to experience Mochi Mayhem! Spoilers lie below...

  • Visit the shop in Mossui Town, in the Kitakami region, and interact with the stall to the left of the shopkeeper.
  • Return to your house at Cabo Poco.
  • Talk to Arven, standing alongside Nemona and Penny, outside of your house.
  • Go to the south Mesagoza gate.
  • Visit Kieran's house in the north-western corner of Mossui Town.
  • Head back to the Community Centre and talk to Kieran.
  • Go inside the Community Centre.
