Pokémon GO And LEGO Launch Special Australian In-Store Event

Pokémon GO players have a reason to visit their local LEGO Store, with Pokémon GO and the LEGO Group launching a limited-time in-store event across Australia.

Running from August 3 until September 30, the collaboration transforms participating LEGO Stores into Pokémon GO destinations, offering exclusive raids, Timed Research, collectibles and interactive LEGO experiences.

During the event, Trainers will be able to challenge exclusive one-star Pikachu raids, with lucky players having the chance to encounter both a Shiny Pikachu and one featuring a special event background.

Players can also complete a LEGO-themed Stamp Rally by exploring PokéStops and Gyms throughout participating stores. Finishing the rally rewards Trainers with another special background Pikachu encounter, with the possibility of finding a Shiny version.

Exclusive Timed Research will also be available by opening Pokémon GO inside participating LEGO Stores. Completing the research before September 30 unlocks special in-game rewards, while event-exclusive LEGO-themed Pokémon GO stickers can be collected by spinning PokéStops and completing event activities.

The Pokémon GO x LEGO activation will be available at participating LEGO Stores across Australia from August 3 through September 30. A full list of participating locations is available via LEGO Stores.
