Get your head out of the gutter.
We're now just a few weeks away from the opening of Pokepark Kanto, Japan's first Pokemon-themed park, and more details are starting to come to light.
While not exactly positive, late last year, we discovered that PokePark's Pokemon One would be accessible to more visitors, and we also saw images of a real-world Pokemon Center and Poke Mart. Now, we've got our first look at a new attraction: the Vee Vee Voyage merry-go-round.
Vee Vee Voyage will let you ride Vaporeon (and Rapidash, and Ponyta, and a whole lot more Pokemon).
Vee Vee Voyage seems to be one of the main “ride” attractions in PokePark Kanto.
Every single Eeveelution is getting a life size plush
All eight of them, starting with the Kanto Trio.
A traditional fun-go-round, the attraction features rideable versions of Eevee, and its evolutions, with at least four appearing in the new image: Sylveon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon, as well as both versions of Ponyta and Rapidash (Kantonian and Galarian).
While the name has been common knowledge for a while, photos shared on the Japanese PokePark Kanto Twitter account gave us our first look at the ride.
riding The park itself appears to be priced separately, with tickets priced at ¥1,200 ($7.50/£5.64) for adults and ¥800 ($5.05/£3.76) for children under 3, according to the official website.12.
Along with Vee Vee Voyage, PokePark Kanto will be split into two regions. Pokemon One, which features “various terrains including mountain paths, tall grass, tunnels, rocky trails, and more” and allows participants to “observe a wide variety of Pokemon from Kanto and other regions as they run, battle, and share berries,” and Sled Town, an area designed to mimic a traditional games and Pokemon town.
Sled Town features shops, a parade, a premarina fountain, and two attractions, one of which is the aforementioned fun-go-round.
The park opens on February 5, and tickets, which are currently only available to residents of Japan, can be purchased through a lottery system.
