Nintendo Switch Online users can now select from a new batch of Pokémon Pokopia icons, with some fan-favourite characters featured in the line-up.
This time around, there are 11 icons on offer, seven backgrounds, and five frames.
The icons are redeemable on both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 consoles and will set you back 10 Platinum Points each.
NSO users can select from five Ditto variants. There’s a classic Ditto in its usual ‘mon form as well as four human versions, two female and two male.

There’s also an icon of Ditto being carried by Drifloon, an action you’ll see if you venture over to one of the game’s Dream Islands.
The other options feature Squirtle, Mosslax, Peakychu, Pikachu, and Pikachu and Peakychu together as a duo.
The frames and backgrounds will cost you five Platinum Points each, with the frame colours purple, brown, green, and two shades of lilac currently on offer.
As for backgrounds, you can choose from grass, the sky, a grass and sky combo, two Ditto silhouette designs, a Pokéball design, and a berry design.
If you’re not familiar with Platinum Points, it’s Nintendo’s free rewards currency.
You’ll likely have a large supply of Platinum Points without even trying but if you do want to stock up your coffers, there are several easy ways to do so.
Make sure you’re signed up to MyNintendo. Visiting the MyNintendo portal will inform you of all the easy tasks you can complete for points.
Logging in weekly, for example, will net you points, as will signing up for MyNintendo emails.
You can gain around 70 a week just by completing recurring weekly missions. That’s more than enough to nab yourself some free icons.
The icons tend to switch out weekly so if you do want anything from this Pokémon Pokopia line-up, act sooner rather than later.
