For Pokémon fans, the Pokémon Center is a dream come true. It's the official online store for all things Pokémon, featuring exclusive merchandise, plush toys, trading cards, apparel, and more. However, for fans living outside the United States or Japan, one common question often arises: Does Pokémon Center ship to Europe?
The short answer is no, as of now, the Pokémon Center does not directly ship to European countries from its official U.S. or Japanese websites. But don’t lose hope! There are alternative ways for European Pokémon fans to get their hands on official merchandise.
