PokéPark KANTO 2026: check Forest eligibility before chasing a date
PokéPark KANTO opened inside Yomiuriland on 5 February 2026. Opening-year pressure combines dated admission, Forest time slots, app-based limited-access tickets, and age and mobility restrictions.
Choose the access, not just the price
| Pass | Pokémon Forest | Sedge Town |
|---|---|---|
| Ace Trainer | Flexible entry and re-entry | Re-entry plus listed benefits |
| Trainer | One timed entry; no re-entry | Re-entry |
| Town | No entry | Timed entry and re-entry |
All three include Yomiuriland admission. Some shops, experiences and the Sedge Gym Show require app-based limited-access tickets after entry.
Pokémon Forest is not a stroller trail
Children under five cannot enter, even when carried or accompanied. The route uses natural terrain and includes a 110-step staircase. Pregnancy, health and independent stair-use restrictions also apply. Plan the family's ticket split before purchase.
