Today is Pokémon Day, the 22nd anniversary of the Japanese release of Pokémon Red and Green. The Pokémon Company's got a bunch of treats lined up for fans, from a new Snapchat filter to a special Pikachu showing up in Pokémon GO. My favourite? This giant-sized Charizard Pokémon Gallery figure.
Today is Pokemon Day in Europe and the United States, commemorating the 1996 release date of the first two Pokemon games in Japan. The Pokemon Company is marking the occasion with the release of the first four entries in its premium Gallery Figures line, showing off fan-favourite pocket monsters performing their signature moves.
