## Which Pokémon Card Stores open on November 13, 2026?

Pokémon Card Stores are temporary retail locations combining card-game shopping with teaching events. The Pokémon Center service page describes expansion packs, related goods and selected Pokémon Center merchandise alongside free teaching activities.

**Quick Answer:** Japan’s temporary Pokémon Card Stores combine shopping and teaching events. Aichi and Shizuoka close November 29, 2026; Saitama, Osaka and Wakayama continue through December 6, according to Nintendo DREAM WEB . Visitors should choose their destination with its closing date in mind.

The announcement’s dating needs clarification: the official news index lists it under October 30, 2026 . The announcement page retains a December 27, 2024 header, but its body explicitly gives the 2026 event schedule . That older header should not be read as the date of these openings.

## Where are the five stores, and what are their opening hours?

The Aichi and Shizuoka stores run through November 29, 2026; the Saitama, Osaka and Wakayama stores continue through December 6, 2026 . According to Nintendo DREAM WEB’s October 31 report, ordinary weekday hours differ from weekend hours, and opening day has an extended schedule .

All times below are local Japan time. The table gives the temporary stores’ reported hours, rather than the shopping centers’ general opening hours.

| Prefecture | Venue                    | Floor / event space | Operating dates, 2026  | Ordinary weekdays | Weekends / holidays | November 13 opening day |
| ---------- | ------------------------ | ------------------- | ---------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------- | ----------------------- |
| Aichi      | LaLaport Aichi Togo      | 1F Main Square      | November 13–29         | 10:00–18:00       | 10:00–19:00         | 10:00–19:00             |
| Shizuoka   | Shizuoka PARCO           | 3F PARCO FACTORY    | November 13–29         | 10:30–18:30       | 10:00–19:00         | 10:30–19:00             |
| Saitama    | LaLaport Fujimi          | 1F indoor plaza     | November 13–December 6 | 10:00–18:00       | 10:00–19:00         | 10:00–19:00             |
| Osaka      | AEON Mall Sakai Teppocho | 3F AEON Hall        | November 13–December 6 | 10:00–18:00       | 10:00–19:00         | 10:00–19:00             |
| Wakayama   | AEON Mall Wakayama       | 1F Center Court     | November 13–December 6 | 10:00–18:00       | 10:00–19:00         | 10:00–19:00             |

For an after-school or after-work visit, check the column matching your travel day. The opening-day extension does not apply to ordinary weekdays. Use the listed event space when navigating inside the shopping center, and check classroom schedules separately before planning a visit around a teaching session.

## What do Pokémon Card Stores sell, and what prices are confirmed?

Pokémon Card Stores sell Pokémon TCG expansion packs and related goods alongside selected plush toys and miscellaneous Pokémon Center merchandise, according to the official Pokémon Center service page. This describes the service’s general offering; it does not confirm which individual products will be available at each temporary store.

> “We sell items such as Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion packs, other related products, selected plush toys, and miscellaneous goods.” — Pokémon Center, official service description (English translation).

The official store announcement and Nintendo DREAM WEB report do not establish a complete merchandise list or venue-specific retail prices. Shoppers should therefore check product-level sales notices before planning a visit around a particular pack or item. The general merchandise description also provides no basis for assuming exclusive products, purchase limits or identical stock across locations.

A separate confirmed product price applies to the Pokémon TCG MEGA expansion *ハドウシーカー*: its official release date is November 27, 2026 . The official product page lists a tax-inclusive suggested retail price of ¥200 for a pack containing five randomly packed cards .

That product release is separate from the stores’ November 13 opening . The expansion’s product listing does not confirm stock at these stores. Treat its suggested price as a product reference when budgeting, rather than a store-specific sales offer.

## How can visitors join a free class and receive a participation reward?

![Eevee promotional participation reward card, Pokémon Card Game Step-Up Class](https://snapholo.com/news/content/images/2026/11/pokemon-card-stores-november-2026-openings-body-4.jpg)

The beginner classroom awards an Eevee promotional card through free, same-day, first-come registration; numbered tickets are limited. The Step-Up Classroom on November 29, 2026, uses a same-day lottery and lists an authorized independent-event Trainers Pack as its reward . The official Pokémon announcement sets out different eligibility rules and schedules for each class.

| Detail             | Beginner classroom                                                                                                    | Step-Up Classroom                          |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| Fee                | Free                                                                                                                  | Free                                       |
| Eligibility        | Elementary-school-age children and younger; all ages on weekdays                                                      | Elementary-school-age children and younger |
| Registration       | Same-day, first-come; limited numbered tickets                                                                        | Same-day lottery                           |
| Dates              | November 13–28, 2026, at all five locations; also November 30–December 6 at the Saitama, Osaka and Wakayama locations | November 29, 2026                          |
| Participation time | Approximately 30 minutes                                                                                              | Approximately one hour                     |
| Session hours      | 10:30–17:30; Shizuoka weekday sessions: 11:00–18:00                                                                   | 11:30–14:30 and 14:30–17:30                |
| Listed reward      | Eevee promotional card                                                                                                | Authorized independent-event Trainers Pack |

Eligibility, registration methods and rewards follow the official classroom details. For adults interested in learning to play and receiving the Eevee promo, the weekday beginner classroom is the eligible option. The announcement does not list an Eevee card number.

First-come registration and lottery registration require different expectations. Beginner-class numbered tickets can run out, so arriving during the advertised session hours does not ensure participation. The Step-Up Classroom uses a lottery rather than allocating places simply by arrival order. Its listed windows are broader than the approximate participation time; they should not be read as the length of an individual class.

Choose the class by eligibility and its listed reward before planning a visit. The Eevee promotional card belongs to the beginner classroom, while the Step-Up Classroom lists the Trainers Pack. Pokémon notes that schedules and rewards may change, so check the event announcement before travelling.

## What entry checks apply to Pokémon Card Store visitors?

Pokémon Card Store visitors of elementary-school age and older face facial-recognition checks, with consent required, according to Nintendo DREAM WEB’s October 31 report. The report also states a general limit of one entry per day . Store admission and classroom registration are separate: entering the shop does not secure a teaching-session place.

- **Check the entry conditions:** Nintendo DREAM WEB reports that facial-recognition checks apply to elementary-school-age visitors and older, and that consent is required.
- **Plan around the entry limit:** The same report describes admission as generally limited to one entry per day .
- **Check classroom registration separately:** The official Pokémon announcement specifies same-day, first-come, first-served registration for beginner classes, whose numbered tickets can run out. Step-Up Classroom registration uses a same-day lottery.

For a visit that includes a class, account for both the store’s admission conditions and the event’s registration process. A shopping visit alone does not establish classroom availability, and the beginner-class ticket process should not be confused with the Step-Up lottery.

Before travelling, consult the official announcement for current entry and participation conditions, then follow the applicable registration instructions.

## Which dates should collectors and families check before visiting?

Check the store calendar and classroom dates separately: the expansion release, Eevee-reward sessions and Step-Up event follow different schedules.

- **November 13, 2026:** All five temporary stores open .
- **November 27:** ハドウシーカー releases; its official product page does not establish stock at individual stores .
- **November 29:** Step-Up classes take place, and the Aichi and Shizuoka stores finish their runs .
- **December 6:** The Saitama, Osaka and Wakayama stores finish their runs .

Adults seeking beginner instruction should choose a weekday, when all ages are eligible. Classroom hours differ from shopping hours: sessions operate 10:30–17:30, except Shizuoka weekday sessions at 11:00–18:00 .

For the Eevee reward, beginner classes run November 13–28 everywhere, plus November 30–December 6 in Saitama, Osaka and Wakayama. Registration is free, same-day and first-come, first-served; numbered tickets can run out. The November 29 Step-Up reward is an authorized independent-event Trainers Pack, rather than Eevee .

Before travelling, check the official announcement for schedule or reward changes and the store service page for current venue information. Plan around the class you want; an opening date alone does not confirm a seat or product availability.
