The First LEGO Pokémon Sets Will Release On February 27, 2026

The LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International reveal the first-ever LEGO Pokémon sets coming out in February 2026.

For both LEGO and Pokémon enthusiasts, this a must-catch set. Today, the LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International are unveiling the first-ever collection of highly anticipated LEGO Pokémon sets. This comes out as the brand celebrates its 30-year history, allowing fans to build and display their favorite Pokémon in LEGO brick form when they launch on February 27, 2026. Additionally, there will be prizes and rewards for a scavenger hunt starting today, January 12 to February 27.

These first three sets feature five fan favourite Pokémon: Pikachu, Eevee, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise—recreated in LEGO brick form. From Pikachu leaping out of a Poké Ball to the original Kanto evolutions brought together in one large-scale build, these brand new sets are made for people who grew up with Pokémon and want to experience it in a new way—or for those who grew up on it and want to introduce their children to the world of Pokémon to create lasting memories.

The 2,050-piece LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball set ($269.99 CAD) encourages fans to recreate one of the most iconic scenes from the franchise: Pikachu jumping out of the Poké Ball ready for battle. It also includes two poses: a dynamic battle stance and a seated pose. The 587-piece LEGO Pokémon Eevee ($84.99 CAD) is made for every Eevee collector out there. Eevee’s expressive face, movable tail, head and limbs allow builders to pose the fan-favourite, either at rest or ready to jump into action.

Round off the three sets, the whopping LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise set ($899.99 CAD) contains over 6,838 pieces. This set is stunning, capturing the three big hitters in the Kanto region with their Pokémon evolutions. For the first time, they are now in LEGO form! The set allows the Pokémon to be displayed individually or together on a shared action base, each with a base incorporating designs reflecting each Pokémon’s biome and includes hidden easter eggs to discover throughout the build.

Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, Julia Goldin, stated how “This partnership opens up a whole new range of possibilities for Trainers and builders alike, and we can’t wait for fans to experience these new LEGO Pokémon sets.” Design Director on LEGO Pokémon, Siddharth Muthyala, noted that they are a “lifelong Pokémon fan” and explained that their “team approached the design of these sets with immense care and passion, ensuring every detail and pose truly celebrates what makes these characters so beloved.” I can honestly say, they look amazing—as someone who grew up watching the show and collecting the trading cards.

Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International, Gaku Susai added, “By combining Pokémon’s sense of adventure with the thoughtful design and attention to detail of the LEGO Group, we’re giving fans the chance to build, play, and tell their own stories in ways they’ve never experienced before—something we’re thrilled to see come to life.” I cannot wait to grab these three sets, but they may cost an arm, a leg, and then some.

Contenders will be challenged to find clues hidden throughout LEGO digital content and Pokémon digital content, to unlock exciting rewards and the chance to win The Grand Prize: experiencing PokémonXP and the 2026 Pokémon World Championships in San Francisco, including access to Championship Sunday at the Chase Center, as well as all three new LEGO Pokémon sets.
