After the release of the Jungle Getaway update in Disney Dreamlight Valley, players will be happy to learn that they can now invite the famous duo Timon and Pumbaa to the Dreamlight Valley.

The process is extremely easy as the Lion King Realm is supposedly already unlocked previously when Dreamers invited Simba and Nala in Disney Dreamlight Valley. If that’s not the case, then you need to farm some Dreamlight and head to the castle to make Merlin unlock the Lion King Realm.

How To Unlock Timon And Pumbaa In Disney Dreamlight Valley

Speak with Simba to trigger the Finding Old Friends quest, which is the first quest out of three to unlock Timon and Pumbaa. He expresses how worried he is about his friends Timon and Pumbaa and asks Dreamers to return to the Lion King Realm. Keep in mind that if Simba is unavailable in the valley, then you need to unlock the Lion King Realm, bring him to Dreamlight Valley, and become friends with him to trigger the quest.

Upon returning to the Lion King Realm, a cutscene reveals Timon and Pumbaa’s location. Speak with them and say you are a friend of Simba and would like to take them with you back to the village. The duo refuses and asks players to complete some Hakuna Matata lessons first. Collect some materials to make a crafting table and then use it to craft a Mane. The materials are easily located in the Lion King Realm:

Jungle Stones x4
Jungle Wood x4
Red Jungle Leaves x4

Next, equip the Mane and listen to Timon and Pumbaa’s conversation. To make the players less stressed, the duo came up with a plan. First, head down the wooden log and approach the river to fish out a crown. Second, use the crafting table to make an Empty Vial using Glass. The latter can also be crafted by combining Sand and Coal Ore.

Once the crown is placed on the rock, break it using the Pickaxe, then follow Timon and Pumbaa to the river and scream your fears into the Empty Vial. Throw it in the water and go back to camp. Summon the Shovel and use it on the beds, then go to sleep.

Relax! Quest In Disney Dreamlight Valley

When you wake up, talk to Pumbaa to start the Relax! quest. His lesson of Hakuna Matata revolves around relaxation, which is why you need to collect the supplies to make a hammock:

Collect Jungle Vines x6: Use the Shovel on the vines implanted in the ground. There are three in total and each one gives two.
Palm Tree Sap x2: Next to the camp there are two trees with yellow stuff on them.

Craft the Hammock and give it to Pumbaa so he can place it somewhere. Upon trying it, he urges you to try three different napping spots that have a green leafy seat:

Near the Camp
Near the River
Near the Oasis

Return to Pumbaa and then relax in your favorite spot to take a nap. After you wake up, it’s time to play. Use the Watering Can to water three dried up mud spots in front of the camp to step in them and play. Finally, it’s time to eat. Revisit the same three relaxation spots and catch the three floating fireflies to cook the Roasted Jungle Fireflies recipe in Disney Dreamlight Valley. Take a picture then say goodnight to end the quest.

Where’s Pumbaa? Quest In Disney Dreamlight Valley

The first thing you will see upon waking up is a panicking Timon. Turns out Pumbaa is missing and both of you start looking for him. Head to the Oasis at the beginning of the realm to find Pumbaa stuck in a log tree. Take a picture of him and speak with Timon as he sends you looking for bugs to make an oil mix.

Use the Pickaxe on the three rocks near the river to locate all the required bugs. Talk to Timon to get the recipe in Disney Dreamlight Valley then approach the green stove near the river to cook a Green Bug Oil and an Orange Bug Oil. After that, combine both oils to create the Super Slippery Bug Oil. Give it to Timon who mixes it with the Watering Can. Water Pumbaa with the new mix, but alas, it won’t work.

Head back to Dreamlight Valley and ask Goofy for advice. He gives you an old plunger and tells you to collect some materials to enhance it:

Iron Ingots x10: Combine Iron Ore and Coal Ore.
Rope x10: Use Seaweed to make Fiber and then use Fiber to make Ropes.
Tourmaline x5: Found in Frosted Heights and Sunlit Plateau.
Hardwood x15: Found in Sunlit Plateau, Forest of Valor, Glade of Trust, and Frosted Heights.

Craft the Reinforced Plunger and use it on Pumbaa to help him. Finally, sleep with the duo in the camp to welcome them into the village the next day.
