Pokémon Day is February 27, commemorating the launch of the very first Pokémon games in Japan back in 1996. The fun starts at Pokemon.com, where we will be updating a gallery of our fans’ Pokémon photo memories. They can use the hashtag #PokemonDay to share their best Pokémon moments. Please find more information about Pokémon Day below:
Pikachu will lead the Pokémon Day celebration in Pokémon GO. From February 26, 1:00 pm PST, to March 6, 1:00pm PST, any Pikachu encountered in the wild will be wearing a festive party hat! The Pikachu caught during that time will keep its party hat, so be sure to look for this special Pikachu during its short time in the wild.
Pokémon Day marks the debut of the new Gallery Figures collection in the Pokémon Center. The first set includes awesome figures of Eevee, Mew, Magikarp, and Pikachu—each performing its signature attack. These figures were designed specifically for the Pokémon Center, so this is the first time anyone will be able to get their hands on them.
