The Pokémon Company and the Lego Group have teamed up to create Lego Pokémon sets that will launch next year. Yes, you heard that right! This collaboration promises a delightful mix of two iconic worlds.
A teaser trailer has been released showcasing yellow Lego bricks magically forming Pikachu’s tail. When you think it can’t get any better, Pikachu unleashes an electric attack that lights up both the Lego and Pokémon logos. The first wave of these new sets is expected to hit shelves in 2026, but details remain scarce for now. It’s worth noting that Mega Bloks previously held the building rights for Pokémon, which created various brick-built figures like Charizard and locations like Pokémon Stadium.
Julia Goldin from the Lego Group expressed her excitement about this partnership: “We are thrilled to be working with a brand that has such a deep and passionate fanbase as Pokémon.” She believes this collaboration will open up endless possibilities for fans who love building with Legos and experiencing adventures in the Pokémon world.
This isn’t just another announcement; it marks another chapter in the ongoing relationship between Nintendo and Lego. We recently saw news about a stunning Lego Game Boy set coming out later this year, talk about nostalgia!
Gaku Susai from The Pokémon Company also commented on how well these brands align: “The Lego Group and Pokémon have strong shared values of imagination, creativity, and fun.” He hinted at some surprises waiting for fans when these products finally arrive.
