You’ve heard of catching ’em all. Now get ready to build ’em all—because Pokémon LEGO sets are finally coming our way. A leaked video seemed to hint something big was on the horizon. But now we have official confirmation. LEGO announced that it would be collaborating with Pokémon on a number of sets, the first of which will be released in 2026. But that will only be the start because this collaboration between LEGO and Pokémon is a multi-year partnership. And that means we’ll have plenty of time to build up our LEGO Pokédex.
Yes, that is Pikachu’s tail coming together out of LEGO bricks and sending sparks into the air, and we’re obsessed. We don’t know too much about what the partnership between LEGO and Pokémon will bring us yet, but we do know that building our own Pokémon will be a treat. If there’s any company we can trust to get all the details exactly right, it’s LEGO.
And The Pokémon Company agrees. Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International notes “The LEGO Group and Pokémon have strong shared values of imagination, creativity and fun, making this the perfect partnership to deliver unique, meaningful and engaging ways for Trainers to experience the Pokémon brand. Working with the best-in-class team at the LEGO Group and seeing their dedication and passion for the project has culminated in an innovative and groundbreaking collaboration that will surprise and delight fans. We cannot wait to see both LEGO fans and the Pokémon community’s reactions in 2026.”
Innovative, groundbreaking, and delightful? We can’t wait to test our true mettle as Pokémon Masters as we embark on these LEGO builds.
What Kind of LEGO Pokémon Builds Can We Expect?
So far, LEGO hasn’t given us any specifics about the kinds of sets we can expect from this collaboration with Pokémon. But the teaser trailer for the partnership obviously suggests LEGO Pikachu will be in the mix of the 2026 releases. We really hope we get a super extravagant Pikachu build that’s 1,000 pieces at least, if not more! Maybe some cool light bricks could make its cheeks glow with electric power. (See: LEGO’s Barad-dûr build.

After that, the sky is basically the limit. There are 151 original Pokémon LEGO can choose from, and a total of 1,025 Pokémon out there as of the time of this writing. (More if you count in regional forms, Mega Evolutions and Gigantamax Pokémon.) Personally, I vote for a LEGO Mew. But Eevee is always a crowd pleaser, so we bet we’ll see that Pokémon in a LEGO set before long, maybe with a few of its Eeveelutions as build options.
Honestly, if LEGO could find a way for the set to allow a Pokémon to “evolve” that would be really neat.
In any case, we’re probably going to get a number of Pokémon LEGO sets to catch and add to our collections because, as mentioned, this will be a multi-year partnership between the brands. The Pokémon LEGO sets releasing in 2026 sound like only the beginning.
Why Haven’t There Been LEGO Pokémon Sets Before?
On the LEGO Pokémon landing page, and FAQ sections asks, “Has the LEGO Group ever made a Pokémon set?” and the answer is “We can’t say that we have, no. But in 2026, the answer to that question will be totally different.” And that’s because Pokémon and Mattel have had a long-running exclusive deal which let Mattel’s Mega Bloks corner the Pokémon building market. Fan reaction to Pokémon Mega Bloks is that is has just been a fine experience. Some really don’t like the builds, but most just feel they were okay, just not spectacular. In any case, it seems like that exclusive deal is up now, freeing up Pokémon to either leave behind Mattel’s Mega Bloks altogether or, at the very least, diversify into LEGOs as well.
Well, we’re pretty sure LEGO’s offerings will be spectacular and as electrifying as the teaser trailer promises.
Is There An Exact Release Date for the Pokémon LEGO Sets?
Not yet, but as we mentioned the first Pokémon LEGO sets will release in 2026.
Otherwise, LEGO notes, “Fans should keep their binoculars peeled and their Pokédex ready to experience the world of LEGO Pokémon, coming their way in 2026. For more information as it is revealed: www.lego.com/pokemon” And we’ll keep you updated here as well.
