Toys R Us Brings Pokémon Sun & Moon Demo Events Nationwide With Exclusive Eevee Figure Giveaway This weekend, Toys R Us is once again teaming up with The Pokémon Company and Nintendo to offer fans a hands-on look at Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon for the Nintendo 3DS.

On Saturday, May 13th, from 1 PM to 3 PM local time, select Toys R Us stores across the United States will be hosting in-store demo events featuring the latest titles from the beloved Pokémon franchise.

These activities allow both newcomers and veteran trainers to experience the acclaimed seventh-generation Pokémon games firsthand. To add extra incentive for early attendees, the first 50 guests at each participating Toys R Us store will receive an exclusive Eevee figure, a must-have collectible for dedicated Pokémon enthusiasts.

Alongside game demos, the Pokémon Trade & Collect event gives fans an opportunity to trade cards, connect with fellow collectors, and receive additional themed giveaways.

Anyone who tries the special demo of Pokémon Sun or Pokémon Moon will earn a free Tapu Koko poster, while supplies last. A Toys R Us spokesperson commented, "We’re excited to bring Pokémon fans together, offering exclusive memorabilia and an opportunity to experience Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon outside of their own consoles.

These events have become a highlight for the community, providing unique gifts and social opportunities for trainers of all ages." This follows Toys R Us’s previous Pokémon events, such as the February demo of the same titles coupled with a Pokémon Card Trade & Play session.

That event delighted attendees with a Toys R Us-exclusive Cosmog Foil card and a Pokémon Trading Card Game collector’s album—further demonstrating Toys R Us’s commitment to engaging the devoted Pokémon fanbase through experiential initiatives and exclusive merchandise. Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon, both developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company, were released for the Nintendo 3DS system in November 2016.

The games have achieved critical and commercial success, selling over 16 million copies worldwide within their launch year.

These demo showcases highlight Nintendo’s ongoing support for the system and its vibrant community of players. A wide list of Toys R Us locations nationwide are participating in the trade and demo event, making this series accessible to Pokémon fans across dozens of cities and states.

Whether pursuing the sought-after Eevee collectible or experiencing the world of Alola for the first time, attendees are encouraged to arrive early, as supplies of promotional items are limited and demand is expected to be high. For further details about the Pokémon Sun & Moon demo event, including a complete list of participating Toys R Us stores and additional giveaway opportunities, fans should visit the official Toys R Us or Pokémon event webpage.
