How to get Pikachu with Felt Hat Pokémon Van Gogh collab TCG promo card

In celebration of its latest collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, The Pokémon Company has released a special line of products based on paintings and other items on display at the museum. A limited edition Pikachu with Felt Hat promo card is included as a bonus in that product line, which means you will only have a few ways to get your hands on it. 

Whenever a new limited edition Pokémon product is announced, fans and collectors alike flock to find out the best way to grab it—especially when it involves the Pokémon TCG. As a result, TPC gets creative with how it gives away those products or promos, which is the case with the Pokémon x Van Gogh collection. 

Pokémon x Van Gogh: How to get a Pikachu with Felt Hat TCG promo card and other products

Pokémon x Van Gogh: In-person 

There are only two ways to get a copy of the Pokémon x Van Gogh Pikachu with Felt Hat TCG promo card, and it entirely depends on where you live. This goes for all of the other products released as part of this collaboration too.

If you live near Amsterdam or are willing to travel to the Van Gogh Museum, you can visit to look at the collaboration gallery and take part in a number of activities. There is also a shop inside that sells various collaborative products like Pokémon plushes, figures, bags, and art prints inspired by works in the museum. 

Be warned, however, that scalpers and other bad actors have already swarmed the store to take as much of the stock as possible for reselling purposes. If at all possible, I recommend avoiding buying any of their items from second-hand websites to discourage this behavior from happening in the future—as unlikely as that is to work.

Thankfully, the Pikachu with Felt Hat TCG promo card is not sold in the shop but is rather given away to visitors who take part in a special “Pokémon Adventure” activity to learn more about the art these collaborative pieces were inspired by. This is the only way to get a copy at the museum. 

As another warning, some visitors have reported that individuals waiting outside the museum have harassed them to sell their Pikachu promo or even tried to steal it outright. If you do travel to the museum, be careful and make sure to secure all of your items safely before leaving to avoid this. 

Pokémon x Van Gogh: Online

If you don’t have plans to travel to Amsterdam any time soon, you will still have a chance to get in on the artsy action via the Pokémon Center online storefront. 

A range of Pokémon x Van Gogh products, though not the entire collection, will go live on the Pokémon Center and be available for purchase while supplies last. This includes a number of art prints, figures, and more. 

The Pikachu with Felt Hat promo card will be given out as a gift to users who purchase products from this collab collection—again, while supplies last. It is likely that you will only get one Pikachu promo per order as a way to send as many cards out to as many people as possible. 

Once the Van Gogh products go live on the Pokémon Center, there is a high chance they will sell out quickly because actual fans interested in the products and scalpers looking to get as many items as possible will be all over the storefront. So try to keep an eye out and jump in early when the collaboration goes live on the shop. 

What time does the Pokémon x Van Gogh collaboration start, end, and go on sale?

The Pokémon x Van Gogh collection already went live on the Pokémon Center website and was sold out within minutes of going up.

An early traffic jump caused by a mix of quick-handed fans, scalpers, and bots caused the website to struggle and many of the products were listed as sold out instantly. The Pokémon Company has released an apology, noting that it will look at new ways to provide the Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat promo card to shoppers at a later date.

As for the actual Pokémon gallery featured at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, it will remain on full display from Sept. 28 to Jan. 7, 2024, though the actual paintings will remain at the museum beyond that time frame. That means restocks for certain products could be in the works for the in-person and online shops to keep interest in the collab going through the end of 2023—which would be a great way to potentially combat scalpers. 

You can learn more about the Pokémon x Van Gogh Museum experience on the official museum website.
