Several Smash Brothers fans also appreciate the Pokémon franchise, and with eight Pokémon playable in Smash games thus far and at least one more to come in Greninja, Pokémon is undeniably a significant part of the Smash Brothers series. For those Pokéfans looking to get their hands on official Pokémon swag, get excited! The Pokémon Company International is launching PokemonCenter.com, an online store with apparel, plushies and more. The store will open August 6th, 2014.


There are currently some preview items for sale - go check them out!
The full store will officially open August 6th, but there are some preview items up for sale to tide fans over until the grand opening. This is great news for both Nintendo and Pokémon fans; official Nintendo merchandise has historically been somewhat difficult to find, but this new offering will make it easier than ever to find official Pokémon goods.

Go check out the preview site here!

Are you excited for the Pokémon Center to open? What do you want to see in the shop most? Make your voice heard in the comments below!

The Derrit hopes they're selling an Ivysaur plushie. Or a Jumpluff. Or a Chesnaught. Talk to him about his grass type addiction on Twitter at @TheDerrit.

Alright this is pretty much bordering on spam. Please stop posting gifs of the Colbert Report with no context.
I have one more that I reeeeaally want to use, but...alright. Can I ask why Relax Alax got a warning, though?

Pokemoncenter.com existed a long time before now. It shut down for reasons I don't remember. I was a regular shopper. Now, I can finally return and net myself a glorious Flygon. Welcome back, old friend.

I remember they had a Pokemon Center online store a long time ago that got shut down... so I guess this is the reopening?

I'm hoping they'll have a Greninja t-shirt.

I found the Colbert gifs to be pretty friggin' hilare, however I did kinda >_> at Relax Alax's.

This store really excites me. Looks nice, I want that Xerneas shirt. Can't wait to see what all they have when it launches.

Why is everyone using a Steven Colbert gif?
It's not just gifs now...
The Colbert Report is full of win.
Now, between the news and the gifs, this thread is too.
That's the Colbert Bump in action, baby!!

On topic, I am super-poor, so I won't be able to buy any of this marvelousness.

I remember I was at Comic Con Philadelphia and I saw a stand that was selling Pokemon plushies. My one regret was not buying the OMG ADORABLE QUILAVA plushie. I should have spent the $45 but damn if my wife didn't talk me out of it...

I will correct that mistake....

You're leaving your wife?
On a completely unrelated note, is she hot?

Why was I not aware this is a thing...


Welp, here's hoping they bring it over to the US Pokemon Center and maybe make it a bit cheaper. I'm cheap. :p
Yeah, seriously. THAT much for a keyring.
w/e, it can kill dragons.
