PokéPark Kanto (Pokémon Park in Tokyo)

See your childhood dreams come alive — and catch them all — at PokéPark Kanto. Part of the Yomiuriland theme park, this special space will house all your favorite Pokémon, along with a variety of themed attractions.

Pro tip: Check out our guide to Yomiuriland for all the details.

PokéPark Kanto attractions

There are two main areas to explore. In the 500-meter-long Pokémon Forest, you can get up close to around 600 Pokémon from the Kanto region — keep an eye out for your favorite.

In Kayatsuri Town, “trainers” (aka visitors) can explore the Pokémon Center, a Gym, and two themed rides, plus a merchandise-packed Trainer’s Market. On top of all of that, you can enjoy parades and meet-and-greet experiences with some of the characters.

The prices above are for those aged 13 and up; tickets for young children (3-12) and senior citizens (over 65) are cheaper. A basic entry pass — a Town Pass — will also be available from summer in 2026.
