Part of the long running Pokémon Annual range, this 2027 edition sits alongside similar licensed annuals from brands like Marvel and Star Wars, mixing short reads with activity style pages for younger fans. It’s aimed at the gift market, but it also works as a low pressure way to keep Pokémon interest ticking over between games, sets and the anime.

Who is this for?

Best suited to primary school age readers who like bite sized Pokémon content, quick puzzles and colourful artwork, rather than a full length story. If you’re buying for a keen reader, think of it as a companion book for downtime, car journeys and rainy afternoons.

  • Annual format: usually a mix of comics, stories and puzzles, so it’s easier to dip in and out.
  • Seasonal gift style: the kind of book that gets revisited over the holidays, then kept for the activities.
