Update: The full press release from The Pokémon Company has arrived, revealing that this pop-up store is coming to London's Westfield shopping center in Shepherd's Bush between October 18 and November 15 (dates subject to change), featuring exclusive designs and items.
Pokémon fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Sword and Shield later this year on the Nintendo Switch, but as brought to our attention by Serebii, press assets have been revealed for another rather interesting Pokémon venture, this being none other than a Pokémon Center in London.
No official announcement or press release has been provided, but the two images below have been released, showing the plans very clearly. This even includes a mockup of the facility, as well as a rather British-looking Pikachu.
We don't have any more details other than this, but considering the similarities pointed out between Sword/Shield's land of Galar and Britain itself, it seems The Pokémon Company might be rather fond of the Brits.
Would you pay this a visit?
