It's a Pokemon-themed Christmas at City Square Mall this year!
I have to say the mood at the shopping malls during festive seasons like Christmas and Chinese New Year have been pretty muted the past two years with the pandemic and the safe management measures in Singapore. So, it was really nice when we chanced upon this year's Christmas decorations at City Square Mall!
My family and I were in the vicinity and had dropped by to buy lunch, and imagine our delight when we saw the a huge Pikachu inflatable when we drove by! It's a Pokemon-themed Christmas at City Square Mall this year!
I remember the We Bare Bears-themed Christmas at the mall two years ago was a lot of fun with beautiful light-ups at night, bouncy castles and even 'snow'! There doesn't seem to be as many activities this year (there is no mention of fringe activities by the mall) which is understandable given the pandemic but it was nice to see the Pokemon inflatables and standees at Level 1's City Green Park near the playground. I think it's definitely worth a visit for photo ops, especially for Pokemon fans!
So here are five highlights of Pokemon Winter happening from 19 November till 29 November 2021 at City Square Mall!
1) Cute Pokemon decorations at City Green Park
You can't miss the Pokemon inflatables at City Green Park, especially the cheery six-metre-tall Pikachu!
Also, the snorlax and the Christmas tree it lays before! And here are the other Pokemon inflatables.
There are also Pokemon standees among the greens!
2) 'Catch' more Pokemon standees outside City Green Park
Don't miss the standees OUTSIDE City Green Park as well! Love the 'old world charm' of this gate btw.
And we found more Pokemon outside City Green Park!
3) Try your hands at the new Pokemon Nintendo game
This was still being set up when we arrived at the mall. But when we were leaving, we saw some kids trying their hands out at the new Pokemon Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl Nintendo Switch game which I understand is slated for release on 19 November 2021! But we only saw one gaming station, so might be a bit of a wait if there are many waiting to try it out!
4) More Pokemon decor in the mall
There are also a few Pokemon-themed decor in the mall worth a pic or two.
5) Redeem free Pokemon-themed gift wraps and carrier
Fancy wrapping your Christmas gifts with Pokemon-themed wrapping paper? Well, you can redeem for a free set of gift wrap with $60 spent at the mall, or a Pokemon carrier with $150 spent. They look pretty cute to me! Do check the mall's T&C on how to redeem!
Are there any other nice festive themes you have come across at other Singapore malls? If so, do let us know!
