Pokémon TCG Pocket has garnered a mixed response since its introduction. While the trading feature didn't quite hit the mark, the digital version of the beloved TCG has been generally well-received. Fans eager to showcase their enthusiasm with official merchandise might feel let down, as the exclusive lineup is currently available only in Japan.
The official Pokémon TCG Pocket merchandise went live over the weekend and is accessible solely through the Japan Pokémon Center site. A quick look at the international version of the site shows these items are not yet available globally, though there's optimism they might soon reach a wider audience.
For those feeling down about missing out, let's take a closer look at what Japan-based fans can enjoy. The merchandise includes unique items such as paper theatre pieces—mini 3D dioramas resembling cards—smartphone shoulder straps, keychains, and a Sacoche bag featuring the Pikachu EX immersive card art on its interior lining.
It's no secret that Japan often enjoys a larger slice of the fan experience pie. Fans outside the country have frequently missed out on limited-time pop-up shops, themed cafes, and other exciting events related to anime, manga, and gaming.
Given the popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, there's hope that this exclusive merchandise will eventually make its way internationally. This could offer new and exciting stocking filler ideas for the Pokémon enthusiasts in your life.
