Among the new features introduced in DLC 1: Bubbly Basin for Pokémon Pokopia, one of the most interesting additions for collectors is the set of new Human Records hidden and scattered throughout the new underwater area. As in the base game, these records are divided into newspapers, letters, magazines, and more... Finding all of them not only allows you to learn more about the lore of Bubbly Basin, but can also unlock exclusive emotes, hairstyles, and outfits from this DLC that you can use to customize Ditto.
With that in mind, we've prepared this entry of our guide to show you where to find every Human Record in Bubbly Basin, so you can collect them easily. There are 29 in this area in total. Due to their randomized nature, this count doesn't include the six records that can appear on the DLC's Basin Dream Island. You can search for them on different days inside the island's central cave, as they appear at random.
You can find a total of seven newspapers to collect in Bubbly Basin—not counting one available on the Basin Dream Island. Their locations are shown below in the same order in which they appear in the DLC's Human Records collection menu:
