The Pokémon TCG Pocket has stirred a variety of reactions among fans. While its trading feature has been a point of contention, the game has been celebrated for offering an engaging digital experience of the popular trading card game. However, if you're eager to show your support through merchandise, you might be out of luck—for now.
Exciting new official merchandise for Pokémon TCG Pocket has hit the market, but there's a catch: it's exclusively available in Japan through the official Pokémon Center site. A quick look at the international version of the site shows no signs of these items yet, though there's hope they'll become available worldwide in the future.
For those feeling down about missing out, let's take a closer look at what Japan-based fans can get their hands on.
Merchandise Highlights
The merchandise lineup includes intriguing desk accessories such as paper theatre pieces, which are mini 3D dioramas inspired by cards, smartphone shoulder straps, keychains, and a Sacoche bag featuring an interior lining with the immersive Pikachu EX card art.
It's not uncommon for Japan to receive a larger share of fan-centric products and events. From limited-time pop-up shops and themed cafes to other engaging experiences, fans outside Japan often find themselves on the sidelines.
Given the widespread popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, there's a good chance these items could make their way to international markets. This could provide fresh ideas for stocking fillers for the Pokémon enthusiast in your life.
