Fans of Pokémon have taken it upon themselves to raise a petition for the establishment of a permanent Pokémon Centre in Malaysia. The Pokémon Centre Pop-Up Store at Ombak KLCC is set to close in 2027 and fans are hoping for a more permanent location. While The Pokemon Company has not yet responded to such a request, the initiative has gained traction with a petition created by TCGKL, a local trading card game (TCG) convention organiser.
The petition, titled "A Pokémon Centre to call our own," has garnered 574 verified signatures so far, with a target of reaching 25,000 across the country. The majority of signatures come from Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, indicating strong fan support in these regions. The petition also highlights the presence of two other permanent Pokémon Centres in Singapore and Taipei, Taiwan.
The distance to these centres may dissuade some fans from visiting solely for the purpose of the Pokémon Centre. Even if the petition meets or exceeds its goal, it does not guarantee that The Pokemon Company will consider setting up a permanent Pokémon Centre in Malaysia. The organization has promised to send the total number of signatures collected by state to the company for consideration.
