Each PokéLids is an original design and each is unique. The PokéLids will continue to be installed for years to come. More than 150 PokéLids have been installed already in locations throughout Japan and they will serve as an opportunity for many people throughout Japan and around the world to learn about the charms of Pokémon and the charms of Hachinohe City and Hashikami Town.

In the Tohoku region, as part of the reconstruction support after the Tohoku earthquake, PokéLids have been installed in 57 locations, mainly in the Pacific coastal areas of Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima Prefectures. The PokéLids that are installed will gradually become PokéStops for the location-based game Pokémon GO for smartphones.
