First of all, sorry for the late update! This week’s Pokemon Center announcements actually came out on Thursday instead of Friday, to coincide with the release of this month’s CoroCoro magazine.

DoubleMegaBreakPack

The next big Break set is scheduled to come out November 20th and includes 14 special cards that you can only get through the purchase of this set. The Double Mega Break Set features a Mega Aerodactyl EX card, a Mega Mawile EX card, and a Luxray Break card and will retail for 2,160 yen.

PWY1

Halloween is shaping up to be a semi-big release day! These new Pokemon badges will be added to the Pokemon With You collection and go on sale from October 31st. The new additions include: Ash’s Greninja, Cherrim, Croagunk, Maril, Slowpoke, Snorlax, Togepi, and Zygarde Core. Each badge is 258 yen.

PWY2

Along with the badges, this tote bag and pouch will also go on sale at the same time. The tote bags are 6,480 yen and the pouches are 2,268 yen each. As a reminder, all proceeds from the Pokemon With You merchandise line go toward helping children affected by the Tohoku earthquake from 2011.

PokemonRWPreorder

This past Saturday marked the start of pre-orders for the cartridge version of the Japanese version of Pokemon Rumble World. The game is set to come out November 19th, and by pre-ordering at the Pokemon Center, you will get 1 clearfile and a set of 3 postcards as a bonus.

ChristmasWinter

Finally, we got the official announcement for the Christmas + Winter promotion, which amusingly enough comes out on Halloween!

Christmas1

“Christmas Illumination” focuses, as one might guess, on a Christmas theme, with the highlights being the Santa Chu and Eevee Chu plushies.

Christmas2

There is also a charm set

Christmas3

A mini wreath, very adorable plate to perhaps eat Christmas cake off of, and many other festive items!

Snow1

If Christmas isn’t really your thing, there is also “Aurora Tour”, with cute little Pikachu snowman plush.

Snow2

As well as charms and a variety of items with the Aurora Tour main graphic, such as a blanket and pouches.

On a parting note, these Mini Round Plush have started appearing in stores! I snapped these guys at the Mega-Tokyo Pokemon Center, so they should be at the other Centers as well (among other places!)
