Welcome to,

Poketinerary

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.
