The LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International have officially announced their first collaboration, which will be a new toy set set to release in 2026.

The Pokémon franchise, which is described as one of the most popular and enduring entertainment brands since its debut in 1996, will now be adapted into the LEGO form, giving fans the ability to build Pokémon characters and environments using the company’s signature bricks “brick by brick.”

While details on specific sets or themes have not yet been revealed, the partnership signals a big expansion of Pokémon’s physical toy offerings along with its upcoming first-ever collaboration with ONE PIECE.

Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, highlighted the significance of the collaboration, stating: “We are thrilled to be working with a brand that has such a deep and passionate fanbase as Pokémon, partnering to give our joint audiences what they have been asking us for. We strongly believe that through the endless possibilities of LEGO play and the exciting adventures the world of Pokémon brings, this partnership will create a range of new possibilities for Trainers and builders alike.”

Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International, also gave a statement regarding the collaboration: “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. Working with the best-in-class team at the LEGO Group and seeing their dedication and passion for the project has culminated in an innovative and groundbreaking collaboration that will surprise and delight fans. We cannot wait to see both LEGO fans and the Pokémon community’s reactions in 2026.”

Both companies have historically focused on creativity and interactive play, making the collaboration a logical next step.
