The campaign also debuts Japanese-inspired Nanban Zinger and Chicken Bites.
KFC Singapore is launching a Pokémon-themed campaign from 19 August to 29 September, featuring limited-edition merchandise, themed restaurant makeovers, Pokémon GO activities, and beginner-friendly Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) sessions.
During the campaign period, all 71 KFC outlets in Singapore will be transformed into PokéStops and Gyms in Pokémon GO, allowing players to collect in-game items and participate in battles.
Five selected outlets will also receive Pokémon-inspired makeovers based on different types: Water at KFC NEX, Fire at KFC JEM, Electric at KFC Kallang, Ghost at KFC Compass One, and Grass at KFC Jurong Point.
These stores will feature themed decorations, photo opportunities, and special Pokémon decals, including Mega Raichu X, Mega Raichu Y, Mega Charizard X, and Mega Charizard Y.
The campaign will also introduce a seasonal Japanese-inspired menu featuring KFC’s take on the Nanban Zinger and Chicken Bites. The items will be served with egg tartar sauce and spring onions and will be available from 19 August to 29 September.
As part of the collaboration, KFC will release a range of Pokémon-themed collectables, including a reversible pouch, Poké Ball bucket, gaming chopsticks, Evolution jacket, Pikachu car neck pillow, and sticker sheet.
From 19 August, customers who purchase a Japanese Nanban Zinger or Chicken Bites Box can purchase a Pokémon Reversible Everyday Blind Pouch for $14.95.
