PokéXciting!, the Pokémon 30th anniversary event, comes to Changi Airport and Jewel on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 November, with a parade of all 27 first partner Pokémon at Jewel Forest Valley. Entry is free and open to everyone, on The Pokémon Company’s Asia 30th anniversary website.
The parade and stage shows
The parade brings together the first partner Pokémon from all nine generations of the video game series, marching to music at Jewel Forest Valley. Over at Changi Airport Terminal 3, a stage hosts shows starring PokéXciting! Pikachu, a Pikachu that wears a different coloured costume in each host city. Singapore gets a blue version.
Photo spots, meet and greets and Pokémon GO
Pokémon decorations called POKÉGENIC are hidden around the venue for photos. Pokémon Meet and Greet sessions run at the Terminal 3 Departure Hall, and PokéXciting! Pikachu is also set to appear in Pokémon GO.
A Pokémon Experience Zone in the Terminal 3 Departure Hall has Pokémon games on Nintendo Switch 2 and free Pokémon Trading Card Game trial sessions. At Jewel, a Trading Card Game Quiz Rally runs across the mall, with enlarged cards of the 27 first partner Pokémon, a quiz on the cards and a prize at the end.
Merchandise and shopping promotions
Singapore edition PokéXciting! Pikachu merchandise goes on sale at Pokémon Center Singapore from 7 November, in limited quantities.
A separate shopping campaign starts on 3 November and runs until 31 January 2027 at Jewel and 28 February 2027 at Changi Airport. A qualifying receipt from participating outlets lets shoppers buy or redeem Pokémon items. Changi Airport has the Pokémon cabin bags and hold luggage. Jewel has an umbrella with a waterproof sleeve. Both have plush toys, a thermal bottle and a travel blanket.
Changi Airport keeps Christmas-themed Pokémon decorations up until the end of 2026, followed by Lunar New Year decorations in early 2027.
