One item that I really hope will be available on the site: the "Red" Nendoroid figure.

Don't think this would do me much good. I imported the giant talking pushies and I imagine any American version of them would have them say their English name instead of the Japanese ones. Assuming they will indeed be what the article is referring to. So I'd still have to import those for the Japanese versions.

With no physical lines, lazy fandom. All the best stuff is at the end of the line. Very Happy Poke centers sound great hope they make it happen.

Do you not like their English names? Or is it more for collecting purposes?

It should be mentioned that the website did exist in the past when Nintendo World used to be a Pokemon Center.

I agree that it really irks me when they have the English names on things and such. I haven't watched the anime dub since the Orange Islands and have been used to the Japanese names for a long time. Even before I started importing the actual games, any time I caught a Pokemon I would nickname it by it's Japanese name that I was more familiar with.

Collecting purposes I suppose. I watch the anime subbed so I'm used to how they all sound in the original. I don't know all the English names to be honest.
