As an avid Pokémon fan living in the European Union, I am deeply saddened by the lack of a dedicated Pokémon Center here. Despite being home to millions of fans, we are yet to have our own hub for all things Pokémon. This is not only disappointing but also unfair as other regions such as Japan and America already have multiple centers.

The absence of a center means that we miss out on exclusive merchandise, events, and experiences that are only available at these locations. It also limits our ability to fully engage with and enjoy the franchise we love so much.

According to Statista (2020), Europe has over 20 million active users playing Pokémon Go alone. This number does not even include those who play other games or collect merchandise, showing there is clearly a large demand for a center here.

By establishing a Pokémon Center in the EU, it would not only fulfill this demand but also bring joy to countless fans across Europe. Furthermore, it could potentially boost tourism and local economies where these centers are established.

We urge Nintendo and The Pokemon Company International to consider this proposal seriously. Please sign this petition if you support establishing a Pokemon Center in the EU!
