Pokémon × Van Gogh was a collaboration between Pokémon and the Van Gogh Museum to celebrate the latter's 50th anniversary. The collaboration consisted of an exhibit at the museum and a merchandise line.
Museum exhibit
From September 28, 2023 to January 7, 2024, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands featured an exhibit featuring Pokémon artwork that was inspired by Vincent van Gogh's works. Six pieces were produced:

Museum visitors could complete an activity dubbed a "Pokémon Adventure" to learn about the works that inspired the collaboration. Filling out a leaflet rewarded visitors with the TCG promo card Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat. A How to Draw Pikachu video played on the museum's first floor. The museum's website also hosted educational slideshows for schools to teach students about the impression Japanese art had on van Gogh.
