Still feeding your Pokemon addiction (real as hell)?

There’s no shortage of the franchise with the recent Pokemon Go City Safari in Singapore. Now, Lotte World in Korea just dropped what might be the cutest (and most photo-worthy) Pokemon event yet, and we are obsessed.

Until 25 May 2025, Pokemon fans (or anyone with a camera) need to add Pokemon World Adventure: Spring Camp to their Korea itinerary. 

Trust us: it’s not just a nostalgia trip (okay it is but there’s also more).

Cherry blossom season is still going strong in Korea. So, you’ll get to see sakura-filled skies and meet life-sized Pokemon characters scattered throughout Lotte World.

Snap a picture with Pikachu, Bulbasaur, a giant Snorlax, and even a chonky Slowpoke chilling around the park like they own the place (as they should).

The iconic Lotte World balloon ride is now transformed into a Poke Ball hot air balloon that floats you into the skies on a themed adventure. As you soar, keep your eyes peeled for Gengar and Diglett peeking out along the route. Don’t miss the photo zone with Pikachu and Eevee while waiting.

One of my childhood dreams was to be a Pokemon Trainer and now, it can be a reality. Just pick up an Exploration Notebook at Lotty’s Emporium, complete missions around the park, and earn a limited-edition reward. 

You’re basically Ash Ketchum (minus the aging).

You can also spot the fan-favourite Pikachu at the Pokemon parade. They run only on weekends at 3.30pm and 5pm, so make sure to plan accordingly (especially if you want a better view)!

If you’re visiting on weekdays, there are also Pikachu photo opportunities at 12.30pm, 3.30pm, and 5pm. So basically, Pikachu is always ready for your close-up.

If your idea of heaven involves retail therapy, head to the Level 4 Pokemon merch store near the balloon ride. It’s stocked with gachapon machines, Pikachu headbands, and Poke Ball keyrings that open up to reveal tiny Pokemon inside.

Whether you’re a lifelong fan, a casual player, or just here for the cherry blossoms, this pop-up event is pure cuteness. So the only real question is…

Will you try to be the very best (like no one ever was)?
