Pokémon Sun & Moon - Alola Cap Pikachu
To tie in with the 20th movie, Pokémon! I Choose You, the final special promotion has begun in Japan. If you prebook tickets in Japan, you will get a Serial Code that can be used to unlock one of six Pikachu wearing one of Ash's caps from over the years. This distribution provides Alola Cap Pikachu, which has Ash's hat from the Sun & Moon series of the anime and knows the move Iron Tail which Pikachu can't normally get in Sun & Moon. This Pikachu also comes with the special Pikashunium Z Z-Crystal which turns the move Thunderbolt into the Z-Move 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt. This distribution is available until July 17th 2017, with a repeat coming in September, so be sure to get it while you can. Our Event Database has full details of this event.
