Taiwan Opens Its First Pokémon Center as the Second Overseas Store, Commemorative ‘Taipei’s Pikachu’ Card Distributed
Torikizoku opened the “Torikizoku Memorial Hall” on June 5.
With the concept “From this town, to the world,” the hall features a chronology of Torikizoku’s history, past menus, and novelty goods. It also has a “life-sized panel of President Okura at the time of founding” photo booth. Respondents to the questionnaire receive a “capsule toy (Torikizoku mascot collection)” as a gift.
The opening hours are from 3 PM to 9 PM, Thursday through Sunday. It operates in four time slots starting at 3 PM, 4 PM, 5 PM, and 6 PM, with advance reservations required. Each session accommodates up to 10 people. Admission is free.
The location is on the second floor of the first store, Shuntoku, themed after the founding days in commemoration of the 40th anniversary. This store replicates the original menu from its founding in 1985 as much as possible. It is a 3-minute walk from JR Shuntokumichi Station.
