IKEA Japan Will Have Real-Life Pokopia Event

Wait 5 sec.

IKEA in Japan will collaborate with The Pokemon Company and Nintendo for a Pokemon Pokopia event both in real life and in-game. You can check out Pokopia-inspired showrooms in Japan between April 1, 2026 and May 10, 2026, and you can visit an IKEA cloud island until June 30, 2026. The code to visit the islands will be in-stores, and it hasn't shown up online yet. The worldwide branches of IKEA aren't participating.This collaboration campaign celebrates the 20th anniversary of IKEA in Japan, as well as the 30th anniversary of the Pokemon franchise and launch of the game. During this event, you can go to stores in Japan to check out showrooms that IKEA has recreated in Pokemon Pokopia. There will be two types of rooms: one based on Pikachu (including Peakychu), and one based on Snorlax (seemingly not including Mosslax). While you can take pictures of these showrooms, IKEA asked that you let others take turns if it’s busy. Some IKEA stores will have both displays, and some will have one.These showrooms also contain the address for IKEA’s cloud islands. The exception will be the IKEA in Okayama. You will need to actually go to the IKEA stores to get the address, so unless someone posts them online, these cloud islands are essentially Japan-exclusive. Not only can you check out these IKEA-like designs for inspiration, you can also take pictures to 3D print back in your own game if IKEA owns something you don’t have yet by taking an in-game photo.Images via IKEA, NintendoDuring the campaign, IKEA will also hold a stamp rally. You can go around the store to find stations with Pokemon on them, and each station will teach you some trivia about IKEA. In total, there will be seven stamps to collect, and you can bring them home as a souvenir.Pokemon Pokopia is readily available on the Switch 2.
