There’s My NintendoSplatoon 3Pokemon rewards involved
A Pokemon Splatfest is imminent, but until then,Japan is going all-out with their celebrationsfor the milestone event: which includes swag, and Pokemon center participation (as well as a few other locations listed below).
First up, Nintendo is offering keychains for Platinum Points (for My Nintendo Japan), including SKUs for each of the Splatfest choices: grass, fire, and water. They actually resemble the patterns of the t-shirts that will appear in-game, which is a nice touch.
A “Collaboration Festival” is also underway at Pokemon Centers “nationwide” (again, in Japan), where you may pick up tie-in stickers (featuring the key art for the event). Curiously, some centers also have “polling stations,” which include “voting stickers” for each choice.
As a reminder, everything will kick offon November 11 at 4PM PT, through November 13 at that same time. The Pokemon Center tie-ins begin on October 21, and will run through November 13 (or, as Nintendo points out, as long as supplies last).
Here’s a list of the Japanese locations hosting Pokemon Splatfest events:
[Update:The US My Nintendo site has been updated, and confirms that the trio of keychains are “coming soon” to the US side.]
[Update #2:TheSplatoon 3keychain set is live on My Nintendoas of last night. It is indeed asetof all three, andsold out quickly. Hopefully they’ll restock it, but note that the listing is live, if you want to bookmark it/check in on it.]
