New title is aimed at Pokémon-obsessed six to ten-year-olds.

Immediate, the special interest, content and platform company has announced the launch of the official Pokémon Magazine in the UK.

Pokémon Magazine offers all the excitement of the Pokémon brand, including brilliant puzzles and awesome facts.

Each monthly issue includes Pokémon-inspired covermounts and issues 1 and 2 come with official Pokémon Trading Cards, giant pull-out posters and stickers.

Pokémon Magazine editor, Peter Hart, says: “We’re so excited to be a launching the magazine for every young Pokémon Trainer. They’ve played the games, bought the books and toys, and watched the TV series, but now they can enjoy even more amazing adventures with Ash, Pikachu and friends in the Pokémon universe. We know children are crying out for this magazine and can’t wait to get it into their hands.”

Pauline Cooke, Immediate Media’s Youth & Children Publishing Director, says: “There’s no official Pokémon magazine in the UK market, and nothing for this age group that not only unites boys and girls but also brings them to the world of Pokémon in a safe and engaging way. It’s amazing working a brand like Pokémon, with a 20 year heritage, that continues to be so highly adaptable and relevant to kids today.”

Pokémon Magazine will be available in all major magazine retailers, including Tesco, Asda, Waitrose and WHSmith, priced £2.99.
