The Pokemon Company has reopened its Pokemon Center Tohoku physical store in Sendai, Japan. People living in the northern areas of Japan’s Honshu island can now find the renewed outlet on the third floor of the Sendai Parco department store.
The fifth-generation mythical Pokemon Victini will greet visitors with Pikachu via the entryway logos. The new store also features an Ogerpon statue in its plush sales area.
In addition, the store has two areas dedicated to Pokemon games. One of them features games for mobile devices and Nintendo consoles, and the other is specifically made for the Pokemon Trading Card Game.
The Pokemon theme does not only appear in the indoor store. The company has also set up a Pokemon Center Tohoku Garden outside the second floor of the same building. People can sit in front of Pokemon-themed topiaries like Pikachu and the Poke Ball.
A good number of Pokemon Center outlets across Japan have been getting renewals in recent months. The Nagoya outlet had its renewal completed in October 2024. The Gyarados-themed Hiroshima outlet will be the next in line after Tohoku/Sendai, with its reopening date set for April 11, 2025.
Pokemon Center Tohoku is now available at Sendai Parco every day from 10 AM until 8:30 PM JST.
