The holidays are in the air; Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and the New Year may influence your current plans with family and friends, as well as festive decor in your house.

With many holiday items available at the Pokémon Center and other retailers, does Pokémon play any part of your celebrations? Any winter Pokémon GO sessions to celebrate time off from work and/or school with friends?

Personally, I have our Pokémon stockings out 😂 And I've had my Pikachu & Ekans ceramic figure out for the entire year in my living room since 2025 was a year of the Snake.

Curious to hear your thoughts and bonus points for pictures!

This year it will NOT be part of my Christmas celebrations, but I do plan to start Pokémon Scarlet & Violet's DLC in the new year.

I hope everyone at Mt. Moon has a lovely Christmas, holiday, and a Happy New Year!

I'm not sure yet how much it will be part of my celebrations, but there will be some shape of Pokémon during my Christmas holidays for sure — ideally I'll play any of the console games, but if not I'll still be checking TCG Pocket and Masters EX. Sadly I don't have much in terms of ornaments and nothing that could even serve as a Christmas tree to decorate at my room (as of now, at least) but I do have my smol collection of fanmerch out year-round (and my few plushies also always nearby)

I also joined a fanwork gift exchange hosted by a fan every year and since the gifts will be published on AO3 on the 24th, that counts too I'd say! Though speaking of gifts, I kinda promised my nephew I'd give him a Pokémon book and I still haven't had a chance to buy one 😹
