Okay, so it totally makes sense why LEGO and Pokémon are teaming up again – it’s Pokémon Day 2026! That marks 30 years since the original Pokémon Red and Green came out in Japan way back in ’96. While we’re getting new LEGO Pokémon sets, nobody knows exactly how many they’ll make at first, or if the awesome Kanto Gym Badges set will come back. Most of us fans don’t think it will, and even when it was available, you could only get it if you bought the big Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise set – it wasn’t sold on its own. Because of that, one dedicated fan decided to rebuild the Gym Badges set themselves using different LEGO bricks, which is pretty cool!
