The officialPokemonCenter stores are famous in Japan for selling high qualityPokemonmerchandise to patrons. While officialPokemon Center stores popped up in London, New York, and Paris, the physical stores for those locations have since closed down.
Thankfully, the Pokemon Center website acts as an official way to buy high-qualityPokemonmerchandise online. Now, the Pokemon Center website has announced its official line of merchandise and apparel for Halloween 2020.

The official Pokemon Center sells merchandise for all sorts of seasonal and holiday events. In fact, back in May thePokemon Center sold plenty of Summer merchandisein the form ofPokemon-themed tank tops, hoodies, and even inflatable beach with various Pokeball designs. Usually, the Pokemon Center’s seasonal and holiday events include merchandise like clothing or plush toys themed around certain events. Halloween 2020 is no exception, with an official collection being unveiled on the official Pokemon Center US website.
WhilePokemonhas often collaborated with clothing brands in the past to create awesomePokemon-themed apparel like theAdidas andPokemonsneakers, the Pokemon Center’s merchandise is all handled by The Pokemon Company itself. The Halloween 2020 collection features a variety of Halloween-themed apparel and merchandise, like keychains and plushies. However, only a handful of items are available to order now, with many other items labeled as ‘coming soon.’ The available items include T-Shirts with various Halloween-themed Pokemon designs featuring Pokemon like Gengar, Pikachu, Espeon, and Umbreon.
Of course, these items are officialPokemonmerchandise, so they do run with a premium cost attached to them. Still, they’re far less expensive than otherPokemoncollaboration items like thesurprisingly expensive Pikachu hatfrom CA4LA in Japan.
The items listed as ‘coming soon’ include Pokemon plushes, reversible hats, keychains, figures, and posters featuring a wide variety of Pokemon in Halloween costumes. Generation 8 Pokemon like Yamper, Morpeko, Grookey, Sobble, and Scorbunny will feature prominently in the collection along with other spooky Pokemon like Litwick, Gengar, Mimikyu, and Cofagrigus.
All of these items can be ordered on the US Pokemon Center website and shipped anywhere within the country. While it’s unfortunate that the US doesn’t have official in-person Pokemon Center stores of its own, it seems shopping online is probably the best option of most people around the world right now anyway. In fact, one popularJapanese Pokemon Center store recently closedafter employees tested positive for COVID-19. Thankfully, fans can shop from the comfort of there own homes and celebratePokemonthis Halloween season.
