First visit to the Pokémon Center in Takashimaya, Kyoto in 2016
In early 2016, when I visited the Pokémon store in the Takashimaya Department Store in Kyoto, I went to Kawaramachi, Shijo-dori, a must-see for tourists. This area is crowded with department stores, shops and gourmet restaurants. It is much busier than Kyoto Station. Come here to shop and eat. Eating is very convenient.
The Pokémon Center Kyoto store has been relocated to Shijo Station on the Kyoto Subway Karasuma Line. From Kyoto Station, you can take the subway directly to the Shijo Karasuma area. From Exit 26, you can directly connect to the SUINA Muromachi Shopping Center. There are also many bus routes passing through Shijo Karasuma. , it is more convenient to visit the Pokémon Center.
Store overview of the Pokémon store
Recently, Pokemon games have become popular among children and adults. Even on my FB dynamic page, someone will share which Pokemon they have caught (very unaccustomed to this term...), when news reports just started to surface, I'm still wondering "Why "Pokémon"?" Wasn't it Pokémon or Pikachu when I watched cartoons before?Until this article was sorted out, I found out that there was no official Chinese name before. The Pokemon is the name given by the Japanese side, and it can be understood that Pokemon is transliterated from the word Pokemon.
Returning to the theme of the specialty store, before the opening of the Kyoto branch, various locations in Japan were located in Sapporo, Sendai, Ikebukuro, Minamifunabashi, Yokohama, Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima, and Fukuoka. This time I came to Kyoto and was located on the fifth floor of Takashimaya. , The store space is nearly 63 square meters, full of all kinds of goods to attract foreign tourists, roll up your sleeves, prepare to go in and fight with friends to buy!

Pokémon Center Limited Items, Gacha and Game Consoles
There have been other media reports before that the shops are all officially licensed products, seasonal products and Kyoto limited styles. My friend took us to the first step to sprint to buy the limited edition "Maiko Pikachu" in Kyoto. He is wearing a red kimono and small flowers. The headdress, holding a poke ball (formerly known as the Pokémon ball) style and umbrella, the workmanship is exquisite and exquisite, many foreign fans and players have started.In addition, there is another group of Pikachu sitting on knees in ancient male officials and female kimonos. It is also recommended to readers who like Pikachu.
This time I went shopping. Basically the popular characters have corresponding dolls, toys, stationery and even small life objects. They are cute and funny, and each product is quite meticulous. The unit price is almost the same as that of the Sanrio store. You can buy them back and give them to relatives, friends and children. Foreigners and tourists pick and choose slowly in a basket, otherwise the children will be around and watch their parents willing to buy them. (No kidding, the kids can't bear to walk away...)
Finally, I hope that through some real shots in the store, I hope you can understand what you can buy. Besides, next to the store... um... There are several Pikachu gashapon machines and game consoles. This is the best thing for lovers of gashapon collection. Place!
