The truck welcomed more than 250,000 visitors in total across its tours in Malaysia and Singapore, receiving an enthusiastic response from fans. Now, fans in the Philippines can look forward to experiencing “Pokémon Pokopia” on Nintendo Switch 2 at participating malls across the metro.
From October 2 to January 24, 2027, the Pokémon Truck will visit malls across Metro Manila, inviting shoppers to step into the world of “Pokémon Pokopia” and try the game on Nintendo Switch 2. The Philippine tour follows an enthusiastic reception in Singapore and Malaysia, where the truck welcomed more than 250,000 visitors in total. Under the campaign “Play “Pokémon Pokopia” Game with Pokémon Truck at Your Town!”, fans in the Philippines can now look forward to enjoying the experience at a participating mall near them.
Six Nintendo Switch 2 gaming stations await, giving fans a chance to try the games for themselves. Four stations inside of the truck, feature “Pokémon Pokopia”, where players can create their own world with Pokémon, while the other two offer a selection of Nintendo games at featured stops. Each station comes with a Nintendo Switch 2 system, a “Pokémon Pokopia”-themed board, and easy-to-follow instructions. Friendly staff will be on hand to explain how to play and offer support, helping both first-time players and experienced fans enjoy their time with the games. With dynamic LED displays and comfortable sofa seating, the custom-built, 17-foot truck provides a welcoming space to sit down, play, and discover the world of “Pokémon Pokopia”.
There’s plenty to enjoy beyond playing the games. The interactive “Pokémon Pokopia” photo zone and decorative wall offer fun spots to take photos and capture memories of the visit. In the outdoor area, children and families can meet Pikachu in person and spend time at the coloring corner, making each stop a special experience for Pokémon fans. As a keepsake, guests can take home a commemorative “Pokémon Pokopia” sun visor featuring Pokémon designs. The visors will be handed out on site while supplies last.
