Pokémon TCG Pocket has stirred a variety of reactions among fans since its release. While the trading feature has been criticized, the game has been praised as an excellent digital platform for the popular trading card game. For those eager to show their enthusiasm through merchandise, there's both good and bad news.
Excitingly, official Pokémon TCG Pocket merchandise is now available, featuring unique items like paper theatre pieces, smartphone shoulder straps, keychains, and a Sacoche with Pikachu EX immersive card art lining. However, there's a catch: these items are currently exclusive to Japan and can only be purchased through the official Pokémon Center site in the country. A quick check on the international site reveals that these products are not yet available globally, though there's hope they might expand worldwide soon.
It's not uncommon for Japan to receive exclusive fan merchandise, often leaving international fans longing for similar offerings. With the popularity of Pokémon TCG Pocket, there's a good chance these items could make their way to international markets. This could be great news for those looking for unique gifts for the Pokémon enthusiasts in their lives.
