It’s been 30 years since Pokemon made its video game debut with Pokemon Red and Pokemon Green in Japan, launching a franchise that would go on to become a global cultural phenomenon.

That love for Pokemon has endured in Singapore. Look no further than the long queues for the recently launched Pokemon TCG: 30th Celebration cards.

But beyond its video games and card game, the Pokemon franchise remains strong here, from the reopening of Pokemon Center Singapore with Singapore-themed merchandise to the upcoming Pokemon World Championships , which will be held at Singapore Expo from Aug 13 to 15, 2027.

When CNA Lifestyle spoke with Daisuke Kobayashi, senior director of the Asia business division at The Pokemon Company, in August this year, he elaborated on his hopes for the Pokemon brand in Asia in the future.

“We could try to make more localised products. We can collaborate with local companies… and make more Asian-oriented products, services and initiatives,” said Kobayashi.

One idea he floated was creating an Asian-centric Pokemon product and exporting it to markets such as Japan and the US, further expanding the franchise’s global reach.

For now, fans in Singapore have plenty more to look forward to this year, with several Pokemon events and experiences lined up across the country, including a themed run and more.

Unleash your inner Pokemon trainer at the upcoming Pokemon Run 30: Singapore Edition, held on Nov 7 and 8 at The Kallang.

The run begins in an all-too-familiar way: choosing your partner Pokemon. Spanning about four kilometres, the non-competitive event will feature themed challenges along the route – all inspired by the Pokemon world, including gym battles and chances to evolve your partner Pokemon.

Tickets to participate in the run are available for sale via this website , with prices currently starting at S$138. Each participant will receive a runner’s kit containing an exclusive T-shirt, a drawstring bag, a themed bib, a themed armband, a Pokedex search sheet, a lenticular card, and an official Pokemon Trading Card Game booster pack.

Beyond the race, there will also be a free-entry festival zone at the venue, open to both participants and non-participants of the run. Here, visitors can look forward to immersive zones, meet-and-greet sessions and a pop-up store selling special merchandise.

Dubbed a “large-scale party-style celebration”, PokeXciting! will take place across five cities in Asia: Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Singapore, Manila and Bangkok.

The Singapore leg of PokeXciting! will take place on Nov 7 and 8 at Changi Airport and Jewel.

Regardless of which generation of Pokemon you grew up with, don’t miss the Pokemon Parade at Jewel Forest Valley where all 27 first partner Pokemon from nine generations of the original video game series take to the stage together.

As part of the festivities, a special Pikachu – dubbed PokeXciting! Pikachu – will visit each of the five cities, sporting a different costume in each location. Singapore’s Pikachu will don a blue costume.

新加坡人对宝可梦的热爱经久不衰。看看最近推出的宝可梦集换式卡牌游戏：30周年纪念卡牌的长队就知道了。

除了电子游戏和卡牌游戏之外，宝可梦系列在新加坡依然保持强劲势头，从重新开放的宝可梦中心（出售新加坡主题商品）到即将于 2027 年 8 月 13 日至 15 日在新加坡博览中心举行的宝可梦世界锦标赛，都证明了这一点。

目前，新加坡的宝可梦粉丝们今年还有很多值得期待的活动，全国各地都安排了多项宝可梦主题活动和体验，包括主题跑步等等。
