See New Pokémon and Experience Alola to Commemorate Release of Pokémon Sun and Moon!

It’s 47 days packed with food and Pokémon with events and photo spots touring 40 stops! The Seibu Ikebukuro Line will also feature a wrapped train!

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon will go on sale for the Nintendo 3DS as the newest titles in the Pokémon franchise on Nov. 18, and to commemorate that, there will be an event titled “New Pokémon and the World of Alola” in Ikebukuro, Tokyo from Friday Nov. 18, 2016 to Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2017!

Sunshine City will be packed with events related to Pokémon during this time. An excursion-style event called “Find New Pokémon! Alola World Tour” will feature Pokémon from Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon hidden throughout its 40 stops, and depending on how many you find, you can also receive original goods. A lot of other plans are being set up, as well, including ridiculously cute Pikachu ornaments that you won’t find outside of Sunshine City, a special photo stop where you can take your picture with a giant 2-meter-tall Legendary Pokémon, a Restaurant Fair through which you can get an original sticker by ordering particular food, and a raffle where you can win a Pokémon Center prize. You can also enjoy Sunshine Aquarium and Sky Circus Sunshine60 Observatory alongside Pokémon.

There will also be a commemorative event celebrating the release of the game on Nov. 18 at the Sunshine City Water Fountain Plaza. Sunshine City’s beloved Saitama Seibu Lions will also be featured alongside Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon for specially wrapped trains on the Saitama Ikebukuro Line for a limited time beginning on Nov. 13, so don’t miss out on seeing that, either.

Enjoy lots of Pokémon this winter in Sunshine City!
