Summer Pockets has tons of content to explore, and this guide is for people who are gunning for all the achievements. We aim to give useful tips on how to effectively navigate the game and to show the way to the more hidden scenes. The guide is to large parts based on the official information in the Summer Pockets Visual Fanbook.

Beginning Tips & Useful Saves
I don’t recommend jumping straight into achievement hunting right after starting the game. However, there are some minor things you can do at the beginning to make things smoother down the line.
I recommend always making a save at the shrine choice on 7/27. One for each starting title, so 4 in total. Luckily the number of titles match the number of heroines, so you simply pick a different one each time you start over after a route. The game gives you 1000 save slots: use them liberally.
The game has a mechanic called Restart that takes effect after you clear 2 routes. It’ll be pretty obvious what it means when you get there. Restart doesn’t affect very many things in the game: It affects which bait you get through defeating Umi in a non-tutorial Islamon battle, and it affects a CG in Kamome’s route. If you follow my first advice about saving on the 27th every time, you’ll have the means of dealing with Restart effectively.
I recommend always participating in the Islamon game. You don’t have to fight anyone, but you want to keep putting out bait at night. Doing the Islamon ending will be much easier once you have 60 Islamon registered in your Index.
Records 163, 164, and 200 can be done right at the beginning and don’t require actually playing the mini games, so I recommend picking those up.
Title Records (001-038, 077-081)
#001-004: These are determined by the first choice in the game. The titles are given on 7/27. This choice affects a whole slew of things in the game.
#005-036: On 7/27 you’re given a choice at the shrine that gives you one of four titles based on your original title. On the 7/29 at the Candy Store, pick ‘One shaved ice’ in order to get a cursed version of your current title. So that’s 4 original titles that split off into 4 branches on 7/27th (16 total), and each of those has a cursed version, so a total of 32. Have fun.
#037-038: You’ll get one of these by going to the Candy Store on 8/3 and play the capsule machine. If your title is any of the Cursed Lucifer variations, you’ll get #037. Any other title will give #038.
#077-080: Visit the Secret Base on 8/5 and pick ‘Me’. You’ll get a title based on your original title.
#081: When you have ’Host’ as your first choice, visit the Candy Store on 8/5 and pick ‘I want your heart’.
Shiroha Records (044-055)
#044 is gotten automatically.
#045-054 are gotten by making all possible combinations of ingredients on 8/7.

Extra: You can unlock a third option for Kamome’s 8/4 event if you said Kyouko was ‘about 17’ on 7/28. You can’t unlock all of Kamome’s CGs in a single playthrough because one of them is based on Umi’s reaction.

Table Tennis Records (166-200)

Story Guide
Summer Pockets doesn’t really need a story guide because just getting the route endings is an utter cakewalk. I’m just making this for completion’s sake and to show off some less obvious tricks. The guide will only list required events and choices as well as whatever unlocks might be available.
Route Order
You can do any order you want really. If I had to say something, I’d recommend doing Shiroha earlier rather than later and to do Tsumugi before Ao. Whichever order you do, you should always start from the beginning after finishing a route. You’ll want to pick a new option for the first choice each time and then make a save at the choice on Jul 27 when Hairi’s trying to impress the young girls.
There’s two hidden scenes for Nomiki available after you clear a route. On the night of 8/2, pick ‘I love you’ then go to the Candy Store on 8/6 AM.
Shiroha Route
- 7/29 AM Island Outskirts
- 7/30 AM Island Outskirts
- 7/30 PM Candy Store*
- 7/31 AM Pond
- 7/31 PM Candy Store*
- 8/1 PM Candy Store*
- 8/2 PM Island Outskirts
- 8/3 AM Secret Base
- 8/4 PM Island Outskirts
*You’re only required to do one of the three Candy Store events to get into the route. Doing all three is just to see
You can get two different scenes on Aug 9 depending on your choices on Aug 7, one with a CG and one without. Get the ingredients from Umi, Kyouko, and the Port for the CG version. Get the ingredients from the Road, the Port, and the Mountain for the other version.
Tsumugi Route
- 7/29 PM Lighthouse
- 7/30 PM Lighthouse
- 7/31 PM Lighthouse
- 8/1 PM Lighthouse
- 8/4 PM Lighthouse
- 8/5 PM Lighthouse: Pick ‘Look for what she wants to do together’
*The last event can be done on either 8/5 or 8/6, but you don’t get a second chance at the choice.
Ao Route
- 7/31 PM Country Road: Pick ‘Observe her’ then ‘Ask about her family’ when it pops up.
- 8/2 PM Candy Store
- 8/3 PM Candy Store
- 8/6 PM Candy Store
- 8/6 Night: Pick ‘Go take a look’
Kamome Route
The search events on 7/31 and 8/3 won’t fail if you pick the wrong answer. The 8/6 event, however, will give you a Bad End if you make the wrong choice. If you say that Kyouko looks like she’s 17 years old during the prologue, you will get a third option during the 8/4 event.
- 7/29 AM Town Hall Road
- 7/30 AM Town Hall Road: Pick ‘I’ll help’
- 7/31 AM Town Hall Road: ‘Shrine’ is the correct answer
- 8/3 AM Town Hall Road: ‘Chimney’ is the correct answer
- 8/4 AM Town Hall Road
- 8/6 AM Town Hall Road: Pick ‘The most dilapidated bird house’
You’ll unlock a CG on Aug 8th by picking ‘Have her help me change clothes’, but you won’t get all variations in one playthrough. After you clear 3 routes, you’ll unlock what I call [Onii-chan Mode]. You’ll get a different variation of Kamome’s CG depending on whether you’re in that mode or not. You can do them in any order, and you can always go back and do it after finishing the game.
True Routes
Once you’ve cleared the 4 heroine routes, you can go onto doing the 2 true routes. There are no required choices in either of them. When you’ve cleared the true routes, you will unlock a screenshot generator under Extra on the main menu.
