Pokemon Oasis break room coming to Japanese ski resort this winter

Nagano Prefecture’s Hakuba region boasts some of the best skiing and snowboarding spots in all of Japan. But no matter how much you and your family might love hitting the slopes or otherwise playing in the snow, eventually you’ll need to take a break and come in from the cold. You need an oasis, so to speak…so why not a Pokemon Oasis?

That’s the name Hakuba’s Kashimayari Snow Resort Family Park is giving to its new kids’ and family break room seating section. Located inside the Main Slope Central Plaza building, as part of its Red Cedar restaurant, the Oasis is decked out with colorful Pokemon character artwork, with a special focus on Pocket Monster species from "Pokemon Scarlet and Violet," the latest paired titles in the mainline Pokemon video game series.

You might notice that in addition to Pokemon, the tables feature individual Poke Ball markings for each diner.

They’re about the size of a dinner plate, and that’s not a coincidence. Positioning your plate over the marking lets you produce a little tabletop tick art: in photos, it’ll look like Pikachu and his friends are peeking at your plate and indirectly begging for a bite.

The Pokemon Oasis will be open from December 24 to March 21, and available from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m. on weekends and holidays. Kashimayari Snow Resort Family Park says it’s for “families only” on weekends and holidays, but it seems like any and all Pokemon fans are can use it on other days.

I mean....... ok......

Japan only knows these kind of "slap the label on an old product" marketing. Such as selling a box of napkins with the pokemon logo in it, or a plastic mug with "Doraemon".
