The Pokémon Company has officially announced a brand-new merchandise collection titled 'Training,' set to debut exclusively in Japan.
This upcoming line shines a spotlight on Fighting-Type Pokémon and showcases the distinct artistic talents of illustrator Takahashi Kino.
Fans will be able to purchase items from the collection starting February 21, 2026, with availability across all Pokémon Center retail stores throughout Japan. As a leading name in both the video game and licensed merchandise industry, The Pokémon Company continues to deliver unique product lines that celebrate aspects of its vast universe.
The 'Training' series builds upon this legacy, catering specifically to enthusiasts of Fighting-Type Pokémon, such as Machop, Lucario, and Hawlucha.
Each item features original artwork crafted by Takahashi Kino, whose playful yet detailed designs have garnered attention in previous collaborations with the brand. According to The Pokémon Company, this new collection was created to 'highlight the determination and spirit of Fighting-Type Pokémon,' capturing the essence of these favorites through eye-catching illustrations and high-quality materials.
Products in the 'Training' line will include apparel, accessories, stationery, and various collectibles, all reflecting Takahashi Kino’s signature style. Since the launch of Pokémon Center stores in 1998, The Pokémon Company has regularly refreshed its merchandise offerings to appeal to both children and adult collectors.
Past collections, ranging from seasonal events to artist partnerships, have often sold out quickly, underscoring the enduring popularity of the franchise in Japan.
By focusing on a specific type of Pokémon and uniting them with an acclaimed illustrator, the 'Training' line is poised to become another sought-after series for dedicated fans. With its release scheduled for February 21, 2026, the 'Training' merchandise line adds another highlight to a growing list of official Pokémon products available through Pokémon Center Japan.
Fans and collectors interested in these exclusive items are encouraged to visit local Pokémon Center locations or check the official Pokémon Center website for further details.
