LEGO debuts first wave of Pokémon sets

The LEGO Group has debuted its first collection of LEGO Pokémon sets.

Landing on February 27th, the first three sets focus on fan favourite Pokémon Pikachu, Evee, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise.

The 2,050-piece LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball set lets fans recreate one of the most iconic scenes from the franchise: Pikachu jumping out of the Poké Ball ready for battle. Easter eggs include a ’25’ displayed on the base, signifying Pikachu’s Pokédex number.

Elsewhere, the 6,838-piece LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise set captures the original designs of the three iconic Pokémon, which can be displayed individually or together on the action base.

Finally, the 587-piece LEGO Pokémon Eevee set boasts an expressive face and movable tail, head and limbs allow builders to pose the fan-favourite, either at rest or ready to jump into action.

“Bringing the world of Pokémon to life in LEGO bricks is both an exciting opportunity and a great responsibility,” said Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group.

“We’ve worked to combine our worlds in a way that truly celebrates the creativity, adventure, and wonder that Pokémon represents. This partnership opens up a whole new range of possibilities for Trainers and builders alike, and we can’t wait for fans to experience these new LEGO Pokémon sets.”

Siddharth Muthyala, Design Director on LEGO Pokémon, added: “As a lifelong Pokémon fan, it’s been an incredible honour to help bring these Pokémon to life in LEGO brick form for the first time.

“Pokémon has inspired generations of fans around the world, so our team approached the design of these sets with immense care and passion, ensuring every detail and pose truly celebrates what makes these characters so beloved. I hope fans will love building them, as much as we did designing them.”

Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International, added: “Pokémon has always inspired discovery and connection and partnering with the LEGO Group brings those qualities together with creativity and imagination into a new form. By combining Pokémon’s sense of adventure with the thoughtful design and attention to detail of the LEGO Group, we’re giving fans the chance to build, play, and tell their own stories in ways they’ve never experienced before – something we’re thrilled to see come to life.”
