Any chance they have an attraction more for the casuals/kids and an attraction for the more hardcore fans?

Those playing the games, doing Pokemon Go, watching the anime, singing up for tournaments, etc.

Can the facial recognition tech Universal has be used as a counter measure to people buying up Pokémon trading cards if they have packs that are exclusive to the park?

I'll put the chances of that at zero.

Not exactly 1:1 to Universal but, fun story;


Build a Bear has a Pokémon line. You can get Gengar, Teddiursa, Snubull, Bidoof, Munchlax, the works.

Back when the line first started to around, 2019, they used to come with cards. They however stopped doing that due to, you guessed it, resellers.

I don't think Universal touches cards at all. I don't see it and they're aware it'll bring in a nasty crowd.

That was going to be another question. The thing with Pokémon though is that any exclusive park merch is going to bring in a nasty crowd, just a different one than the cards.

Does it? Or is it just blind box Pokemon items like the cards?
