Announced on Sept. 1, the new Taipei Pokémon Center is garnering plenty of attention prior to its grand opening in December. New photos, released on Sept. 26, give us a great impression of something that a lot of countries have been missing out on since 2005.
Taipei, Taiwan will join Singapore as a location for Pokémon fans to gather and purchase merchandise straight from the source. Our first look highlights a largely green hue store featuring dedicated item sections, such as the ever-popular trading card game. Its crowning showstopper of a statue is a physical representation of the store’s mascots—Dragonite and Pikachu—located in the Shinkong Mitsukoshi Mall lobby.
