The Pokemon Company has officially released the comprehensive list of exclusive Japanese retailer pre-order bonuses for the highly anticipated Pokemon Legends Z-A.
With the game slated to launch worldwide on October 16, 2025 for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, dedicated collectors and fans in Japan will need to place pre-orders at 21 different retailers to secure every unique incentive.
Each participating store offers its own exclusive item to customers who pre-order Pokemon Legends Z-A, one of the most awaited Nintendo Switch titles of 2025.
Some bonuses are only available through online purchases, while others can be claimed at physical locations, making it essential for interested buyers to confirm availability directly with the specific retailer before placing their order.
Among the variety of unique offerings are items such as a mini microfiber cloth from Animate, an in-game trench coat set and exclusive cutlery from Amazon.co.jp, an original golden badge from AEON, and a 30cm melamin plate from Itoyokado.
Electronic retailers like EDION are including a wristwatch, while gaming shops such as GEO provide a B6 ring notebook.
Convenience stores are also joining the lineup—7-Eleven is set to give away an in-game start-dash set and a Pokemon Trading Card Game case.
Pokemon Center and Pokemon Center Online will reward loyal fans with an exclusive A5-sized Original Art Book, while Toys R Us is offering a distinctive tote bag.
Specialty outlets like Don Don Donki present an original pouch, and Nojima includes a melamin cup.
Bic Camera, Sofmap, and Kojima have bundled an acrylic photo frame, whereas Family Mart provides a three-piece acrylic charm set, and Furuhonichiba gives a multiuse case.
Other notable pre-order incentives include a mini towel from Yamada Denki Group, a Mega Charizard Y standing memo from Yodobashi Camera, and a bundle from Rakuten Books comprising a half-cut A5 sticker, an acrylic coaster with a standee, and an original shipping box.
Customers who pre-order at Loppi or HMV can expect a plumpish sticker sheet, and WonderGOO is featuring Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y acrylic stands.
A representative from The Pokemon Company offered the following statement, paraphrased for clarity: Japan’s array of retailer-exclusive pre-order bonuses reflects a continued commitment to delivering unique experiences for Pokemon fans, further amplifying excitement as Pokemon Legends Z-A’s release approaches.
Pokemon Legends Z-A follows in the footsteps of the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2’s prestigious lineup, with The Pokemon Company maintaining its tradition of creative collaborations and engaging collectibles for its Japanese audience.
As the October 16, 2025 launch date draws near, Pokemon enthusiasts in Japan are encouraged to consult their chosen retailers to ensure they select the pre-order bonus that best matches their interests or to embark on the ambitious task of collecting them all.
