Hey guys, in the summer I was fortunate to visit Japan, and managed to visit 2 of Tokyo's pokemon centers plus its pokemon store at Tokyo station. For me, these places were wonderful and really were a highlight of my trip, the Mega store in Sunshine city was particularly fun because they had a promotion going on in the mall about Hoopa, although I didn't speak a word of Japanese I still managed to complete the tasks they had set, it was really hard and I spent a long time trying to decode exactly what it was I had to do, but I enjoyed it, and although the staff who were promoting it too didn't speak English, they were great sports and tried their best to assist me in the right direction.
I was also fortunate to get a place in the Pokemon Cafe in Sunshine city too, me and my brother went one day and that was around 12pm, they told me that the next available space was at 9pm, which shocked us, so we managed to come back early the next day and get a space for 4pm that day, during that time we visited another Pokemon center, which did take ages to find, which in a way was kind of fun in itself, it felt a bit like a pokemon journey. My only problem with all these stores was that my wallet took quite the bashing.
The Mega store had some sort of Slowpoke event going on at the time, there was tons of Slowpoke merchandise, as well as the many merchandise promoting the Hoopa movie (which whilst in Japan, I thought I'd take the opportunity to see, as I thought I'd only probably be here once, and I'd like to see a pokemon movie the way its intended to be seeing, in its original format and on the big screen, plus I got Hoopa too from visiting).
The Pokemon store in Tokyo station was pretty cool too, I picked up a Pikachu conductor plush there as well as a few pokemon foods such as cookies and biscuits.
So that's a summary of my adventures in the Tokyo stores, hopefully some other folk out there have been and would like to share their stories and experiences.
