Unveiling the Ultimate Pokemon Figures: Must-See Exclusives for the 2023 World Championships!

Pokemon fans recently received a sneak peek of the exclusive figures being released in honor of the upcoming 2023 World Championships. This highly anticipated event will take place in Yokohama, Japan, from August 11 to August 13, featuring competitions in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, Pokemon GO, Pokemon Unite, and the Pokemon TCG. Top-notch players from around the globe will gather to showcase their skills and express their passion for everything Pokemon.

While the Pokemon anime has already crowned Ash as the world champion, numerous real-world players aspire to vie for their own championship title, and they will have the opportunity this August. Even for fans who do not wish to participate in the competitions, there are still plenty of reasons to make the journey to Yokohama, such as experiencing the excitement of the event, witnessing thrilling matches firsthand, and enthusiastically cheering on the players. Now, fans have an additional incentive to attend in person, if possible.

The official Twitter account of The Pokemon Company recently shared a sneak peek of new Pokemon figures being made to commemorate the 2023 World Championships. These special figures will only be available at the Pokemon Center Worlds Store in Yokohama and will be unveiled during the event. Fans in the area may want to visit the store to get a glimpse of them.

The exclusive figures feature Pikachu, a fan-favorite character, as well as the new starters, Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly. With the release of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet last year and their inclusion in the championship, it's understandable that these starter Pokemon would be featured alongside Pikachu in the figure collection. While some fans have previously used 3D printers to create their own figures of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, now devoted fans have the opportunity to own official figures of these new Pokemon.

These figures will be highly coveted collectibles, adding yet another enticing reason for fans to attend the World Championships in person. For enthusiasts who love collecting, a recent display of an extensive collection of Pokemon figures underscores the appeal. The opportunity to possess four exclusive figures not available elsewhere could certainly justify the cost of a ticket and accommodations for certain individuals.

As competitors assemble TCG decks and familiarize themselves with the top 12 Pokemon in Scarlet and Violet, others will be planning their travel arrangements. Now, these devotees will have an additional destination to include in their itinerary.
