Nintendo and The Pokémon Company announced on September 11th, 2024, that a Pikachu Pokémon Utility Hole Cover, or PokéLid (Pokéfuta ポケふた) has been installed at the new Nintendo Museum in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, which opens on Wednesday, October 2nd, 2024.


The new PokéLid was unveiled on-site by Takato Utsunomiya, COO of The Pokémon Company, and Shuntaro Furukawa, President and CEO of Nintendo Co., Ltd.

PokéLids are manholes with Pokémon designs that The Pokémon Company donates to local governments with the aim of promoting the charms of various parts of Japan through Pokémon. Each manhole has an original design, making it one of a kind. They can be found in various places throughout Japan, such as tourist spots, parks, and public facilities, so some of you may have already seen them.


There are two PokéLids in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, so the PokéLid at the Nintendo Museum is the third in the city.


The Pokémon that will appear on the PokéLid at the Nintendo Museum is Pikachu. It features a design of Pikachu together with a Game Boy, the hardware that was used for the original Pokémon games, Pocket Monsters Red and Green.

This PokéLid can be found inside the Nintendo Museum. If you visit the Nintendo Museum, be sure to try and find where this PokéLid is. As this PokéLid is located inside the Nintendo Museum, only visitors entering the museum can see it.

Five-Year Anniversary High Score Ground and Dragon Conqueror

Date/Time

September 9, 2024 at 11:00 p.m. - September 23, 2024 at 10:59 p.m.

High Score Event Details

The High Score Event is an event where you attempt to obtain scores in five different battles and earn rewards. Sync Pairs that have completed one of the battles will not be able to participate in any other battle unless that battle is reset. The more Sync Pairs of the Recommended Types that you have on your team each time the event occurs, the easier it is to increase your score, so be sure to train lots of Sync Pairs featuring the Recommended Types!

Note: This time, the event features two recommended types.
Note: We may adjust the number of points necessary to obtain the featured rewards, taking into consideration the difficulty of battles when using Sync Pairs of the recommended types.

Recommended Types

Recommended Types will be specified each time the High Score Event occurs. Completing a battle with a Sync Pair of a Recommended Type will add a multiplier to your Base Score. You cannot earn a score if you do not have any Sync Pairs of the Recommended Types on your team.

How to Obtain a Base Score

You can obtain a Base Score based on the listed battle rules and challenge rules, as well as the selected strength of your opponents.

• Battle Rules - You can earn points by fulfilling various rules when completing a battle, such as Time trial or Remaining HP. The better your results, the higher the score you can obtain. The selected rules will differ each time the event is held.

• Challenge Rules - You can earn points by meeting conditions, such as including Sync Pairs of a specific Theme on your team or inflicting a designated status condition on your opponent. The selected rules will differ each time the event is held.
  Note: Depending on the event, there may be some battles where you cannot meet the conditions of the Challenge rules.

• Opponent Strength - This event allows you to adjust your opponents’ strength for each battle. Adjusting your opponents’ strength will raise the stats of opposing Sync Pairs. The more you increase their Strength, the higher the score you can obtain.

Additional Special Parameters

In the High Score Event, special rules such as “Opponents are immune to status conditions and interference” will be set for each battle. Some battles do not have special rules.

About Rankings

Once you complete all of the battles, your Best Score, which is your total score from all battles, will be recorded. The ranking feature will be unlocked when your Best Score has been recorded. The rankings allow you to compare your current Best Score against other players participating in the event. Your rank changes according to your place in the rankings, and if you are within the top 10,000 spots, you will reach Master Rank.

If you reach Master Rank when the rankings are finalized, you will receive a special Medal as a general mission reward. You will acquire a Title based on your place in the rankings, and you will receive all of the Titles that are below the one you earned. This special Medal can also be obtained in future High Score Events.

Note: If your total score after completing all of the battles exceeds your current Best Score, your Best Score will be updated.

Ranking Results Announcement Date/Time

September 25, 2024 at 11:00 p.m. - October 2, 2024 at 10:59 p.m.
