On Sunday, as part of an April Fool's Prank, the Kagawa Prefecture in Japan, commonly known as the Udon Prefecture, was jokingly renamed the Slowpoke (Yadon) Prefecture. To tie in with this, a special AR Contest has been announced in Japan as part of a special "Slowpoke Paradise in Kagawa" event. From April 12th, Slowpoke will once again spawn in larger numbers in the Kagawa Prefecture with the contest being to get the best augmented reality photo of Slowpoke in Kagawa, with entries being sent via Twitter and Instagram
In addition to this, a special temporary Pokémon Center is being set up in the JR Takamatsu Station which will sell multiple bits of Slowpoke related merchandise.
