Highlights
Fans have been waiting for years for a Fortnite X Pokemon collaboration but we are yet to hear anything from Epic Games.
As of December 2023, there is no official word on a Pokemon collab event for Fortnite players.

A Fortnite x Pokemon collaboration could take various forms, combining elements from both franchises to create a unique and exciting experience for players. While there have been rumors of a Pokemon collab over the years, we are yet to get an official Pokemon collab event in-game. As of today, there is no word on a Pokemon collaboration event happening anytime soon but we would love to see one soon in-game.

Fortnite X Pokemon Collab: What to Expect

Here are some ideas for what a Fortnite x Pokemon collaboration might look like:

Pokemon Skins

Fortnite could introduce Pokemon-themed skins, allowing players to dress up as their favorite Pokemon or trainers. These skins could include iconic characters like Pikachu, Charizard, Bulbasaur, and more.

PokeBall Emotes

Emotes in Fortnite are a big part of the game, and a Pokemon collaboration could introduce emotes featuring iconic Pokemon-catching actions. Imagine players throwing PokeBalls, with Pokemon appearing and striking poses.

PokeStop Looting

Instead of traditional loot chests, Fortnite could introduce Pokemon-themed PokeStops. Players could interact with these stops to get weapons, shields, and other items, with a chance of encountering a rare Pokemon for special bonuses.

Pikachu Parachute

When dropping into the map, players could have a Pikachu-themed parachute, adding a touch of Pokemon flair to the skydiving experience.

Pokemon Challenges

Introduce special challenges or quests related to Pokemon, encouraging players to explore the map and complete tasks inspired by the Pokemon universe. Completing these challenges could reward players with exclusive Pokemon-themed items.

Pokemon Battle Royale Mode

Create a limited-time game mode where players battle it out in a Pokemon-style format. Instead of eliminating opponents, players could capture Pokemon and use them in battles against other players.

Legendary Pokemon Events

Host special in-game events where Legendary Pokemon appear on the map, and players must work together to defeat or capture them for unique rewards.

PokeDex Collection

Introduce a PokeDex-like feature where players can collect information about the various Pokemon they encounter throughout the game. This could be a cosmetic item or a progression system tied to challenges.

Pokemon-themed Weapons

Replace some of the traditional weapons with Pokemon-themed alternatives. For example, a "Squirtle Blaster" instead of a regular shotgun or a "Pikachu Bolt" instead of a bolt-action sniper rifle.

Pokemon Soundtrack

Include music from the Pokemon series in the Fortnite soundtrack during the collaboration, adding to the overall immersive experience.

A Fortnite x Pokemon collaboration would likely be a massive event, bringing together fans from both communities and offering a fresh and exciting twist to the Fortnite experience.

Fortnite X Pokemon Collab: Release Date

There is no official word on when a Pokemon collab event could happen. We will update this space if a release date is announced by Epic Games.
