The Pokémon Company International has finally decided to open up its Pokémon Center online store to a new region, with the site now officially being available in Canada.
Previously a US-only affair, the Pokémon Center has been selling a wonderful variety of high-quality, official Pokémon goods for years. Fans can find figures, imported plush, apparel and accessories, home decor, kitchenware, outdoor gear, Trading Card Game goods, and more, but until now, only those in the US had access to its products.
"We are thrilled to bring Pokémon Center to our fans in Canada, giving them additional ways to express and celebrate their Pokémon fandom through premium merchandise," said Cindy Ruppenthal, director of e-commerce at The Pokémon Company International. "Pokémon Center has something for every type of Trainer—whether it’s to play, collect, decorate, or wear—and we look forward to seeing even more Trainers enjoy these offerings."
To celebrate its grand opening, Pokémon Center customers in the US and Canada will receive a Pokémon TCG promo card featuring 'Special Delivery Pikachu' at no additional cost with any eligible purchase, while supplies last, of course.
Now, here's hoping that Europe can get in on the act, too. Last year's pop-up store in the UK was great, but we need a permanent solution!

Card isn't even too trash.
Wow that card is cute
omgggggg
APPLIN PLUSHIE!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
I sometimes forget how much I love some of the designs this gen (and last gen), but Gen II is still the one to beat.
It's baffling that they don't have international shipping to other countries. You know, like ALMOST EVERY OTHER online website shop.
Shame everyone loves focusing on Johto since it is the worst pkmn generation. Kind of wish for more gen 5 or something.
OMG yes Europe next!
Oooooh. Nice card, but if it had that shiny reflective thingy some cards have, maybe it would look a bit more unique?
@RodSD64 : It's kind of a good thing that they don't.
I'd be broke.
It's about time.
Right first I’ll say congrats to Canada but after the run away smash that was Pokemon Center London (and the fact I drove at crazy time to get there) I too think the UK deserves a Pokemon Center store
If I wish hard enough we might just get one if we are lucky 😂
@Silly_G Gen II had the best cross-gen evolutions by far. Kingdra, Politoed, etc., are all wonderful continuations of their respective lines.
You'd think we built a magic wall around North America that doesn't allow packages to leave.
I'm not really into Pokémon
@Ulysses : Yes, I loved the expansion of the evolutionary families, especially Slowking, Porygon2, and Politoed, all of which are ridiculously adorable. I wasn't too hot on Gen IV (design-wise, it's probably my least favourite after Gen III), but the new evolutions saved it.
@Silly_G
Broke, but with a Pikachu plushie.
@RodSD64 : There is a richness in that.
