POKÉMON merchandise is one of the most popular video game-related products in the world, and UK shoppers will soon be able to buy rare and unique Pokémon products. 

Reservations have now opened for the pop-up Pokémon Center store set to open at the 2023 Pokémon European International Championships. 

Pokémon plushies are some of the most sought after items at Pokémon Centers

The pop-up Pokémon Center will likely include Pokémon merchandise not usually available in the UK, and could even have products entirely unique to the event. 

The store is expected to be very busy, so Pokémon fans have been encouraged to make a reservation to ensure they’re able to visit. 

Pokémon Center pop-up store: date and location

The Pokémon Center pop-up store will be available later this month, from April 14 to April 16, alongside the European International Championships. 

The European International Championships is one of many qualifying events for the upcoming World Championships, and will see hundreds of players compete in London. 

Both the Pokémon Center pop-up store and the European International Championships will take place at ExCel London on the dates listed above. 

The Pokémon Center pop-up store will be available to the public, while fans will need a ticket to enter the International Championships, even as a spectator. 

Pokémon Center pop-up store: how to reserve a place

Because these pop-up stores tend to be very busy, it’s strongly recommended that you reserve a place to enter so you can guarantee you get to buy what you want. 

To reserve a time slot, you can click on this link, which will let you select from a number of options for your reservation. 

You can pick a day and a particular time, which is broken up into 15-30 minute intervals so you can pick whatever time suits you best. 

It’s a good idea to pick a date on either the first or the second day of the event, as the third is quite busy and is likely to have sold out of some items by then.
