No trip to the Tokyo area is complete without a stop in Yokohama! For Pokémon fans in 2026, the Pokémon Center Yokohama remains a top destination, combining the charm of a port city with exclusive nautical-themed merchandise.
Located in MARUI City Yokohama, this center is famous for its unique “Sailor Pikachu” and an interior that celebrates Yokohama’s maritime history.
Pokémon Center Yokohama
The Yokohama branch is distinctive because of its nautical motif. As you enter, you’ll be greeted by an impressive statue of Pikachu dressed as a sailor alongside legendary Pokémon like Kyogre, which watches over the “harbor” of the store.
Limited Edition Goods
If you are visiting in early 2026, look out for these exclusive items that represent the port city:
The iconic “Sailor Pikachu” plush (often holding a Psyduck) is the ultimate Yokohama-only souvenir. In 2026, keep an eye out for updated seasonal variations. And also postcards, clear files, and washi tape featuring Pikachu and friends in sailor outfits against the Yokohama skyline.
