Pokémon Center Singapore has reopened at Jewel Changi Airport with its most dramatic transformation yet. Closed since April 1 for a full revamp, the store reopened on 1 July 2026 with a heritage-rooted interior, a new symbol Pokémon, and an exclusive merchandise line you can only get here in Singapore — making it the first full-scale redesign of a Pokémon Center outside Japan.
Solgaleo Steps Up as the New Symbol Pokémon
The biggest visual change is who greets you at the entrance. Solgaleo — the radiant Legendary from Pokémon Sun — is now the store’s symbol Pokémon, standing proudly at the façade alongside Pikachu and appearing on the official logo. Inside, the redesigned space draws on Singapore’s traditional architecture: look out for Peranakan tile-inspired patterns worked into the display fixtures, archway shelving units, and a sweeping interior that feels unmistakably local without losing the warmth of a proper Pokémon Center.
First Wave: 12 Singapore-Exclusive Items, Including That Kopi Set
Twelve lifestyle items launched with the reopening on 1 July, all designed specifically for this store. The first wave features original artwork of Pokémon set against a Singapore-inspired cityscape — an illustration that feels like a love letter to local fans. Also in wave one: a Kopi Cup & Saucer Set that is exactly what it sounds like and is already generating a lot of buzz. None of this merch is available at any other Pokémon Center globally.
Second Wave on 7 August: Pikachu Holding Durian, Kopi, and Pandan Cake
The second merch wave lands on 7 August 2026 and leans even harder into Singaporean identity. Coming then: pouches with a Peranakan-inspired Pokémon pattern on the inner lining; Pokémon graphic T-shirts; and a tote bag embroidered with Pikachu and Solgaleo together. The absolute standout is a set of three Pikachu bag charms — each tiny Pikachu clutches a different iconic local treat: a cup of kopi, a slice of pandan cake, and a durian. These are the kind of Singapore-only collectibles that disappear fast.
