The Pokémon Company has announced a new holiday merchandise line titled 'Getting Ready for Christmas!' set to arrive at Pokémon Center stores across Japan on October 26, 2026.
The seasonal collection highlights iconic Pokémon characters and a range of physical retail items aimed at collectors and holiday shoppers.
According to the company's announcement, the 'Getting Ready for Christmas!' lineup features Pikachu and several Pokémon friends participating in festive preparations.
Tangrowth is presented as a decorated Christmas tree while Clodsire is depicted pulling a sleigh, and the collection includes plush toys, decorative items, an advent calendar, themed 'ugly' sweaters and additional seasonal goods.
The company confirmed the products will launch simultaneously at Pokémon Center locations throughout Japan on the October 26, 2026 date.
Rewriting the announcement in clear journalistic terms: The Pokémon Company said the collection, titled 'Getting Ready for Christmas!', portrays Pikachu and other Pokémon assisting with Christmas decorations and preparations, with Tangrowth used as a tree and Clodsire featured as a sleigh-puller.
The firm specified that the range — from plushes to an advent calendar and seasonal apparel — will be available from October 26, 2026 at Pokémon Center stores in Japan.
The Pokémon Center retail chain, operated by The Pokémon Company, regularly issues themed merchandise drops tied to holidays and regional events.
