The Pok61mon Company plans to open its first permanent store outside Asia in London, expected to welcome visitors by 2029 with merchandise, community spaces, and unique experiences.

Details on pricing, inventory, and product categories remain undisclosed and speculative at this stage.

Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer, says the store will focus on creating memorable experiences and building a fan community, regardless of prior familiarity with the brand.

The London store expansion follows broader brand activity, including new expansions for Pokemon TCG Pocket and other updates.

The move is framed within the Pokémon 30th anniversary year, alongside ongoing merchandising collaborations and releases.
