It doesn't matter if two south or two north poles meet, the will create a sort-of-force-field around that pole. For the south pole, it is attracted to north poles and averted from its own kind. For north, vice versa.

How do you make a magnet with two south poles or north poles?

It is not possible to create a magnet with two south poles or two north poles. Both the poles always exist along with each other. Force 2 magnets together end to end with the south poles together. You will get a north pole at each end and a big south pole in the middle. This arrangement is called a quadrupole.

What is a magnet called with north and south poles?

A magnet with distinct north and south poles is called a "bar magnet." This type of magnet generates a magnetic field that has a direction, indicated by the orientation of its poles. The north pole of the magnet is attracted to the Earth's magnetic north, while the south pole is attracted to the Earth's magnetic south.
