How to buy from Pokémon Center Online from overseas
Pokémon Center Online is the official Pokémon store for Japan, and the only source for the Japan-exclusive plush lines, seasonal campaigns and store-limited merchandise that never reach Pokémon Centers in other countries.
You need our Shopping Service
This shop will not deliver outside Japan and generally will not accept a foreign card or a forwarding address. Send us the product link and we buy it in our own name, receive it at our warehouse, then ship it to you.

What to know before you order from Pokémon Center Online
- The store delivers within Japan only and does not accept overseas cards or addresses, so buying through us is the only route from outside Japan.
- Major releases — new plush series, seasonal campaigns, city-exclusive lines — regularly sell out within hours of going live. Tell us the release date in advance and we will be ready for it.
- Many popular items are capped at a small quantity per order, so a large haul may have to be split across several orders.
Worth knowing
Pokémon Center actively discourages resale and can cancel orders it reads as bulk buying. We order in normal retail quantities for this reason, which occasionally means we cannot take a very large single request.
How it works
- Send the link or place the order. Paste the product URL into your account and we quote the total, including our commission, before anything is bought.
- We receive and check it. Your item arrives at our Osaka warehouse, where we photograph it and record its weight and dimensions. Storage is free for the first 30 days.
- Combine with anything else. Keep shopping at other stores. Everything waiting in your warehouse can go into a single parcel, so you pay international shipping once rather than once per shop.
- We pack and ship. Choose your carrier and we repack to remove wasted space, quote the exact rate, and send it with tracking.
What shipping will cost
Shipping is charged on the packed parcel, not per item, so the cost depends on where it is going and what it weighs. Real rates by weight for each destination:
