Key Points
- The Control Unit is an item used for habitat construction.
- While many players search the large structure in Sparkling Skylands, a much faster outdoor spawn exists nearby.
- You can grab the Control Unit from a raised platform near a waterfall.
Pokémon Pokopia tasks you with finding four items in the Factory Storage checklist, namely, Streetlight, Metal Drum, Jumbled Cords, and Control Unit. However, many players are having issues finding the final item. I found it relatively easily. You just need to explore Sparkling Skylands for it.

Where To Find a Control Unit in Pokopia
You can find an easy Control Unit spawn in Sparkling Skylands, outside the main building area, by following the same steps I took:
- From your Sparkling Skylands Pokémon Center, move upwards the rocky terrain as shown in the image above.
- Use your Glide action and go to the far left structure as shown in the image below. You can first glide to the structure in front and then glide to the left structure, or choose to do it in one glide.
- Alternatively, you can also zipline through these structures if you have not unlocked the Glide action.
- On reaching the far left structure, you need to go straight upwards from the waterfall.
- The Control Unit will be available here for you to collect. Interact with the item to collect it, and it will be added directly to your inventory.
From my experience, this route takes less than a minute compared to searching every room inside the main building.

FAQs
What is the Control Unit used for in Pokémon Pokopia?
The Control Unit is mainly used in mechanical habitat builds and technology-based structures. Certain advanced habitat upgrades and automated devices require at least one Control Unit to function.
Can you find multiple Control Units in Sparkling Skylands?
Yes. The region contains multiple Control Unit spawn points, including the large central building and outdoor areas. Revisiting the area later can help you collect additional units.
Do you need any abilities or Pokémon moves to get the Control Unit?
No. The outdoor Control Unit location can be reached without special abilities by using a zipline. However, using the Glide action makes it faster to reach the spawn point.
