In an announcement set to send shockwaves through wallets everywhere, Lego has announced it will launch a Pokémon-themed range in 2026.
Lego’s reveal today offers little other than two logos sat next to each other on a website, but already the company’s accountants will rubbing their paws. Oh, and there’s a Pikachu tail made of Lego too. That’s nice.
“Electrify your imagination in 2026 and get ready to build something we’ve never built with Lego bricks before!” the company has teased.
Pokémon has – for a long time – partnered with Mega Bloks to release various buildable sets. No longer, it appears! While Pokémon is not owned by Nintendo per se, the two companies are closely linked, and this announcement follows several successful Lego ranges based around Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda and Animal Crossing.
