All Aboard
the Pikachu Train!
Now, it's time to board! The carriages are divided into a seating area and a play area. This first picture is the seating area. Pikachu is featured everywhere.
The train staff are also very enthusiastic and friendly, they also enjoy this kind of work. They told me, "It makes us happy to see all the children enjoying themselves."
The rear carriage is a play area, filled with Pikachu toys of all sizes. Both adults and children alike play here, enjoying the countryside scenery from the train windows.
I felt happy after returning to my childhood.
An interesting thing that sets the Pokémon with You train apart from ordinary trains is that it stops at each station for a little while, giving passengers time to get off and and collect a Pikachu stamp.
This has earned the train a popular reputation year by year, bringing more and more people from Tokyo, particularly families with children who come to take photos and collect the stamps.
In addition to the stamps, passengers also receive a Pikachu badge! Pikachu looks so cool in his conductor's uniform!
