Pokemon officially turned 30 on February 27, 2026, three decades after Pokemon Red and Green first launched in Japan, and the anniversary is showing up everywhere this year.

One of the bigger crossovers: all 12 Nippon Professional Baseball teams signed on for "Pokemon Baseball Festa 2026," a season-long collaboration with themed exhibition games, ballpark-exclusive merchandise, and stadium-specific Pokemon GO events built around the tagline "30 years of memories, put into the ball."

This extra-big Dragapult plush, a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive, is a fitting way to mark the year for anyone who'd rather have a Pokemon on the shelf than at the ballpark. It's sold out direct at CDJapan, reachable now through their Proxy Shopping Service.
