Lego has teamed up with Pokémon in a multi-year partnership that will bring Pokémon-themed LEGO bricks starting in 2026. This is the first time both companies have teamed up as before this and fans are equally excited with the announcement. Anything specific is yet to be revealed but the Pikachu-themed teaser was more than enough to give everyone an idea.

“Today, the LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International announced a new multi-year partnership that will bring LEGO Pokémon to fans for the first time from 2026,” the official press release said, further adding, “This new partnership will bring the world of Pokémon to life in entirely new ways, allowing fans to build beloved Pokémon in LEGO brick form.”

Fans getting more buildable Pokémon

Pokémon already have buildable sets with Mattel with a partnership spanning across a decade. It is unclear if the partnership with Mattel will be affected in any way. If not, fans will have more options to choose from depending on what’s available to them. The partnership may also expand into video games as we already know LEGO is quite fond of video games too.

“The LEGO Group and Pokémon have strong shared values of imagination, creativity, and fun, making this the perfect partnership to deliver unique, meaningful, and engaging ways for trainers to experience the Pokémon brand,” said Chief Product Officer at The Pokémon Company, Gaku Susai.
