After you go to the Hau'oli City Shopping District Pokémon Center, you can go to Festival Plaza from your X-button menu.
Overview
Festival Plaza is a place you can go to from your X-button menu after you have gone to a Pokémon Center for the first time.
Players that you StreetPass with can appear in Festival Plaza, or if you connect to the Internet, players from around the world can appear. You can invite your guests to go on missions with you, and you can do global missions with players around the world.
You can get Festival Coins by sending your guests to facilities in your plaza that they like.
Inside the castle, you can add new facilities to your plaza and change or remove the ones that are there.
Green Exclamation Mark
If you see a green exclamation mark on your Festival Plaza icon in your X-button menu, it means that someone in your Festival Plaza has a request. Go around and talk to your guests and fulfill their requests, then leave Festival Plaza. If there is still a green exclamation mark, go back into your Festival Plaza. New guests can appear each time you visit, allowing you to fulfill the remaining requests.
Requests
If a guest has a red speech bubble, that guest has a request for you. Sometimes the guest just wants you to listen to what he or she has done lately, or will ask you a questionnaire question, but sometimes the guest will ask you to recommend a facility. The wording of the request will give you a clue about which facilities will satisfy the request.
| Wording of Request | Facilities that Will Work |
|---|---|
| ...an exciting place | Lottery shop |
| ...a place where my Pokémon can play | Bouncy house |
| ...a place that Pokémon can enjoy | Bouncy house, Haunted House |
| ...a place where I can treat myself | Goody Shop |
| ...a place where I can see real skilled work | Dye shop |
| ...a good place to shop | Goody Shop |
| ...a yummy place | Food Stall |
| ...a place you think I'd like | You have to guess the correct facility |
