Nintendo has announced new Galar Visitor Centers which will be appearing in cities around the U.S. to offer visiting Trainers new information about Pokémon Sword and Shield. Visitors to the center can take their Galar passport photo, get information on Galar Region activities from regional tour guides, receive themed items, and more!

The first center will make its debut at PAX West from August 30th to September 2nd, offering attendees a glimpse at the exciting new region. Those visiting the booth will be able to experience a plethora of fun activities, but be sure to have your camera ready because there will be plenty of photo opportunities to be had! Special items such as postcards and travel brochures will be available to take home, as long as supplies last, and Trainers who pre-order a copy of Pokémon Sword or Shield, or shows proof of an existing pre-order, such as a digital receipt, will be able to snag themselves a special luggage tag inspired by the games.
