Pikachu Manhole Cover: A Unique Addition to the Nintendo Museum
The upcoming Nintendo Museum in Kyoto's Uji city will feature a delightful surprise for Pokémon fans: a Pikachu Poké Lid! These charming manhole covers, known as Pokéfuta, are a popular Japanese phenomenon, showcasing Pokémon characters across various cities.
The museum's Poké Lid showcases Pikachu and a Pokéball emerging from a classic Game Boy, a design that perfectly blends the museum's focus on Nintendo's history with the enduring appeal of Pokémon. The pixelated style adds a nostalgic touch, reminiscent of early gaming.
The Poké Lid initiative, part of Japan's Pokémon Local Acts campaign, aims to revitalize local areas and boost tourism. Many cities feature unique Poké Lids, such as Fukuoka's Alolan Dugtrio and Ojiya City's Magikarp designs. These covers often serve as PokéStops in Pokémon GO, encouraging player interaction.
The Poké Lid website even hints at a playful lore surrounding these artistic manhole covers, suggesting a possible connection to Diglett's digging activities.
The campaign, launched in December 2018 with Eevee-themed covers in Kagoshima Prefecture, expanded nationwide in July 2019. With over 250 Poké Lids installed, the initiative continues to grow.
The Nintendo Museum, opening October 2nd, celebrates Nintendo's rich history. Visitors are challenged to locate the museum's unique Pikachu Poké Lid, adding an extra layer of fun to their visit.
