Trainers Are Headed To Tokyo To Experience The Very First Official Real Life POKÉMON GO Lab

The first Pokémon Go Lab has opened up in Tokyo, Japan which features a ton of interesting attractions to gather trainers around. Previously, Pokémon Centers opened which are now located around the world, but the Pokémon Go Lab is dedicated to exactly what the name entails - all things related to the mobile game of the same name.

For the players who decide to journey to the location will discover that it is also an in-game gym which trainers who arrive can battle in while there - and what is more exciting is that the lights in the store change color in real time depending on which team is currently in charge of said gym - yellow for Instinct, red for Valor, and blue for Mystic.

The Lab sells exclusive gear unable to be bought anywhere else which will enable trainers to represent their team and more. There are also locations on site to assist players from different countries to become friends and trade - and also a location for battling. Oh yeah, and there's a life-sized statue of Professor Willow, seen below.

The address for the location in Japan is Tokyo-to, Toshima-ku, Higashi Ikebukuro 3-1-2, Sunshine City Alpa 2nd Floor. It is also in the same location as the brand new Pikachu cupcake shop and the Pokémon Center Mega Tokyo Branch - allowing fans of the franchise to get a major experience all in one location.
