Pokémon merchandise releases in 2026

Overview

In August 2026, the Pokémon Center released a Halloween-themed collection featuring Ghost-type characters such as Gengar, Mimikyu, and Mewtwo. This collection included apparel like sweaters and pajamas, as well as home goods such as mugs and tea-light holders, coinciding with the franchise’s 30th-anniversary celebrations.

Following this, Sega Prize and Takara Tomy announced additional merchandise scheduled for late 2026. Sega Prize planned to release various items in Japanese game centers, including Pikachu and Gengar backpacks and Alola region-themed bags. In October 2026, Takara Tomy scheduled the release of a ‘Pokémon Gacha Machine’, a Poké Ball-shaped toy designed for use with Moncolle figures.
