Alternative Pokémon Center and Pokémon Store logos

A Pokémon Center (Japanese: ポケモンセンター Pokémon Center) is a retail store that sells official Pokémon merchandise. Japanese stores are operated by The Pokémon Company, while mall kiosks in the Seattle, Washington, area of the United States are run by The Pokémon Company International. There was once a Pokémon Center store in New York City, but has since been closed.

Products

Pokémon Center stores sell many kinds of Pokémon merchandise. This includes Pokémon games, TCG cards, anime videos and DVDs, manga volumes, CDs, and a wide array of products such as clothes, accessories, bedding, sporting equipment, dishes, musical instruments, and toys. For a gallery of merchandise, see the Bulbagarden Archives.

Main article: Pokémon vending machines

Pokémon Center goods are also sold from vending machines in the United States and Japan.

In the United States a series of Pokémon Center branded machines are maintained by The Pokémon Company International and have been present in shopping malls in and around the Seattle area since 2010. They sell a variety of goods including Poké Doll, video games, figures, Trading Card Game items, and charms.

In 2018, The Pokémon Company launched vending machines in Japan under the name Pokémon Stand. These also sell Pokémon Center goods, including (in some locations) exclusive Pikachu plushies.

Online

Japan

In Japan Pokémon Center goods are available from Pokémon Center Online and The Pokémon Store at Amazon.co.jp.

A desktop online store was originally available in Japan from March 21, 2001 and a store accessible via mobile phones was available from September 29, 2003. Both of these closed on November 30, 2006.

The Amazon.co.jp store opened on October 18, 2012 and uses the Pokémon Store brand and name. On February 16, 2016 the current pokemoncenter-online.com website reopened for customers in Japan.

United States

US site logo

In the United States Pokémon Center goods are available from PokémonCenter.com.

Original website

The old US site the day before closing

Around mid-January 2008, the Pokémon Center online store in North America displayed a closing message, encouraging shoppers to take advantage of closing sales, because the store would be closing at the end of the month. The store did close effective February 1, but kept a Q & A site in place of the actual store. The reason given for the closing was: "Pokémon USA, Inc. (now part of The Pokémon Company International) has decided to sell Pokémon merchandise exclusively through its retail partners." The site continued to accept product returns that met their product return standards and were postmarked by February 21 of that year. If one visited pokemoncenter.com, it would redirect to the Pokémon website.

New website

On July 2, 2014, the website featured a countdown clock for the grand opening of the Pokémon Center online store and three different items available for early-access purchase.

On August 6, 2014, the Pokémon Center online store reopened for customers in the United States at the same URL. Some fans were given advance access via mail, where they could access the Pokémon Center website starting July 2, 2014. These fans were given some special gifts from The Pokémon Company alongside the invitation: an iPhone 5 case, a notebook, a canteen, and a plush Special Delivery Pikachu.

On November 9, 2020, the Pokémon Center online store became available in Canada.

Trivia

The internal data of the core series games from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon contain location indices for all of the Pokémon Centers at the time.
- The Japanese and Korean version of the Generation IV games still refer to the Nintendo World Store as PC New York (Japanese: ＰＣニューヨーク, Korean: PC뉴욕), even though they were released after the remodeling. Games from Generation V onwards do not have a location index for the Nintendo World Store.
- Beginning in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, the games no longer have individual indices for each store, with only the Pokémon Center Tohoku retaining a distinct location index.

-Around mid-January 2008, the Pokémon Center online store in North America displayed a closing message, encouraging shoppers to take advantage of closing sales, because the store would be closing at the end of the month.  The store did close effective February 1st, but kept a Q & A site in place of the actual store.  The reason given for the closing was: "Pokémon USA, Inc. (now part of [[The Pokémon Company International]]) has decided to sell Pokémon merchandise exclusively through its retail partners."  The site continued to accept product returns that met their product return standards and were postmarked by February 21st of that year. If one visited [http://pokemoncenter.com pokemoncenter.com], it would redirect to [[Pokémon.com|the Pokémon website]].

 ==Trivia==
 * The internal data of the [[core series]] games from {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} to {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} contain [[Index number|location indices]] for all of the Pokémon Centers at the time.
-** The Japanese and Korean version of the [[Generation IV]] games still refer to the [[#New York (Nintendo World Store)|Nintendo World Store]] as PC New York (Japanese: {{j|ＰＣ}}ニューヨーク, Korean: {{k|PC}}뉴욕), even though they were released after the remodeling. Games from [[Generation V]] onwards do not have a location index for the Nintendo World Store.

 ** Beginning in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the games no longer have individual indices for each store, with only the Pokémon Center Tohoku retaining a distinct location index.
