As an extreme Pokéfan and a marketing professional, I just love these finds...
Our April 2023 trip to Japan was filled with so much Pokémon stuff, I didn't even know where to start. But I did snap photos during our trip of anything Poké-related, so here's what we came across!
You can probably tell Scarlet and Violet were the most recent main game releases during our trip. Lots of starter themed Pokémon items featuring them!
Lots and lots of snacks
Can I have these vending machines at home, please?
Make sure to take care of your hygiene with Pokémon!
Well-represented in the game centers

I read the post about finding Pokemon merch in Japan and it made me smile thinking about all the little shops and fun finds tucked into streets that most people don’t notice. When I was swamped with study last term, sophia homework and assignments support was something I used so I could finish work early and still take breaks hunting for cool things like rare figures online. It reminded me that taking time for joy helps balance study and life.
