Plan the Perfect Pokémon (or general) Trip to Japan

Your all-in-one guide for Pokémon Centers, merch hunting, routes, TCG stores, cafés, and Japan travel essentials.

Pokétinerary was created by two Japan (and Pokémon) – obsessed travellers who spent hundreds of hours exploring Pokémon Centers, TCG stores, cafés and hidden merch spots across Tokyo.

We realised there was no organised, simple resource to help others do the same.

This website brings everything together – routes, maps, guides, and tips – so you can enjoy more and stress less.

Want to find out more about each Pokemon Center in or around Tokyo or Osaka? Perhaps you would love to find out the ideal routes to visit each Pokemon Center in Tokyo in a single day (trust us, its possible). Then look no further.

Discover the top TCG shops to visit across different districts in Tokyo, Osaka and more! Find bargains and pick which stores stock product most relevant to you – whether you prefer sealed items, vintage cards or modern, we’ve got you covered.

Interested in buying tickets to a baseball game, visiting Disneyland Tokyo or simply want to discover the top attractions to visit in Tokyo or Osaka? Then read through our general guides.

One day pokemon center routes

Whether you want to conquer every Tokyo Pokemon Center in one day or discover the best, most efficient routes to visit as many TCG shops as possible in a day in a district wide shop crawl, our tailored itineraries are sure to help!

Find out more about the best real world experiences across Japan, from themed cafe’s and parks to manhole covers. Discover what each one offers, where to find them and which are worth adding to your own itinerary.

Your guide to exploring Japan through the world of Pokémon. Whether you’re searching for the best Pokémon Centers, district-by-district TCG shops, or insider tips on booking the Pokémon Café, we make planning simple.

We also cover essential travel guides — from using eSIMs to navigating Japan’s tax-free shopping — so you can spend less time researching and more time enjoying your trip.

After travelling Japan multiple times and spending hundreds of hours exploring these locations ourselves, we realised there wasn’t a single place that brought it all together. So we built one.

We hope Poketinerary helps make your journey unforgettable.
