Where is the Happy Lucky Lottery?
How to Get Lottery Ticket
you may find the Happy Lucky Lottery in front of the Pianta Parlor in Rogueport (West). To get to the west side of Rogueport, you’ll need to give Zess T. Toad a contact lens. This can be obtained by going into the nearby shop (Toad Bros. Bazaar). You’ll need to interact with theout-of-stock contact lens signand place an order. From there, you’ll receive an email notifying you when the contact lens is back on shelves. It’s only 10 Coins, so you should have the money for it even if you’re starting a new playthrough. After you give Zess T. the contact lens, you can finally enter Western Rogueport.
Speak to Lucky the Bob-omb to learn about the lottery and to purchase a Lottery Ticket (10 Coins for newcomers; 500 Coins for returning participants). Each day, a four-digit number is shown on the board, and depending on how many of your ticket’s numbers match the drawing, you’ll receive a different prize.
How to Get Every Happy Lucky Lottery Prize
Are Numbers Randomized?
The numbers on the board arenotrandomized and are instead cycled through a system. If you check the number from 1-3 days (in real time) of purchasing the ticket,you’ll get a consolation prize. If you check within 4-10 days, at least one of your ticket’s numbers will match the drawing. Here’s every prize and how you’re able to get them:
Lucky Day Badge (or *Zess Dynamite)
335+ Days
- You’ll only receive the Zess Dynamite or the Zess Special if you’ve already won the Lucky Day Badge and Power Plus Badge respectively.
The consolation prize (Mushroom) and 1-2 Matching Numbers prizes can be useful, albeit underwhelming. you’re able to easily buy HP-replenshing items from the stores. Instead, you’ll want to try and get the Power Plus Badge and the Lucky Day Badge. These two badges have the following effects:
The Power Plus Badge and the Lucky Day Badge can also be obtained via other methods. You’ll get a Power Plus Badge inside the well by Creepy Steeple, and the Lucky Day Badge can be looted from the chest on Floor 90 of the Pit of 100 Trials. However, if you want these badges “early,” you’ll want to win the Happy Lucky Lottery.
What Happens If You Cheat the Happy Lucky Lottery?

You can cheat the Lucky Lottery by changing the day on your Nintendo Switch (through Settings). Just add 355 days on top of the day you get the Lottery Ticket, then check the board.
If you change your Switch’s datea day before, then there will be a special notice on the Happy Lucky Lottery board, declaring the lottery has been canceled.
