The Pokémon Company has unveiled an exciting new initiative for Pokémon fans in Japan: Pokémon Wonder, a nature-themed adventure attraction set to launch at Tokyo's renowned Yomiuriland Amusement Park.

Running from July 17, 2021, through April 3, 2022, Pokémon Wonder promises to deliver a unique, immersive outdoor experience that diverges from traditional Pokémon games and products.

Pokémon Wonder is designed as a 'Nature Adventure' where groups of up to six visitors are guided on a 90-minute exploration through an untamed forest area within Yomiuriland.

Throughout the journey, participants will discover intricately hidden Pokémon models and learn about the relationship between Pokémon, nature, and the environment.

The creators have crafted the attraction to provide guests with a sense of wonder, drawing inspiration from the natural habitats and diverse ecosystems that have long served as the foundation for the Pokémon universe. During the official announcement, The Pokémon Company emphasized their longstanding commitment to fostering connections between people, Pokémon, and nature.

The spokesperson highlighted that 'Pokémon Wonder was developed as an innovative way for visitors to experience the world of Pokémon in real-life settings while appreciating the beauty of the natural world.' This aligns with the company's broader mission to blend interactive entertainment with educational value, particularly through special events and collaborations. Yomiuriland has a history of hosting successful themed attractions, further solidifying its reputation as one of Tokyo’s leading amusement destinations.

With the addition of Pokémon Wonder, the collaboration is expected to attract fans of all ages eager to embark on a new type of Pokémon adventure.

Tickets for Pokémon Wonder will be available as part of Yomiuriland’s reservation system, with safety and group size protocols adhering to current health guidelines in Japan at the time of the event. This latest project from The Pokémon Company demonstrates their dedication to expanding the Pokémon brand beyond video games and trading cards, reaching audiences through physical, experiential installations.

Pokémon Wonder not only celebrates the 25th anniversary of the franchise but also reflects Nintendo and The Pokémon Company's shared philosophy of creative innovation in both hardware and real-world experiences.
