Everyone should enjoy nature through Pokémon!

Everyone from children to adults should experience the joy of communing with nature through Pokémon. Make your way through the grass and trees and work together with your family and friends to search for Pokémon. Immerse yourselves in the vastness of nature and develop a "sense of wonder", which is a sensitivity to the mysteries and wonders of nature. It is with this in mind that Pokémon WONDER was born.

Pokémon that harmonize with nature

No CG, no animation, no plush toys. With the concept of harmony with "nature," from plants to sunlight, the Pokémon are expressed in a variety of unprecedented ways.

A forest untouched for nearly 20 years becomes the stage for adventure!

Deep in the heart of Yomiuri Land, a 4,500㎡ forest that has been untouched for about 20 years, is now the stage for Pokémon WONDER. From grasslands to bamboo groves, the scenery changes from one to another as you search for Pokémon.

Become a Pokémon Researcher and dive into nature

Participants will become Pokémon Researchers and become a part of Professor Creso's (クレソ博士) research team. Read the research notes carefully and dive into nature to search for Pokémon in the grass, water, and soil, wading through plants and trees.

Receive an orientation from Dr. Creso (CV: Maaya Sakamoto 坂本真綾) and Pikachu (CV: Ikue Ōtani).

Two courses to find over 50 types of Pokémon

More than 50 types of Pokémon are hidden in two different courses. Up to six participants can take part at the same time. During about 90 minutes, you will search for Pokémon in three different areas. Except for the first area, each course can be explored by a single group.

New connections are born between nature and Pokémon from creativity that crosses domains

The origin of Pokémon is from the creators passion for collecting insects when he was a boy. Creators and artisans across generations and domains who resonate with the project have come together to bring back the authentic contact with nature through Pokémon that is being lost in our daily lives. Creators and craftspeople who resonated with the project came together to create a new experience of nature that could only be achieved with Pokémon.
