Following the announcement earlier this year, the Pokemon Company has opened the Geodude Playground Park in Japan’s Iwate Prefecture.

The park is located in Iwate’s Kuji City, and features a number of playground equipment and statues featuring Rock-Type Pokemon such as Geodude, Onix, Aerodactyl, and more.

本日4月28日（金）より、岩手県久慈市に「イシツブテ公園」が開園！
開園を記念して、新たなポケふたが1枚公園に設置されるよ。
『Pokémon GO』と連携した期間限定の取り組みもスタート！
公園内では、「GOスナップショット」などでイシツブテと出会えるよ。https://t.co/BeqpBgAu7T #PokémonGO pic.twitter.com/zb6dLX7e3y

Following its opening, visitors to the park will have a higher chance to encounter Geodude while playing Pokemon GO, as well as the opportunity to take AR pictures of Geodude using GO Snapshot. In addition, structures in the park will appear as Pokestops in Pokemon GO, allowing players to get postcards and other items from them. Finally, the roadside station building near the park will have a Rock Pokemon theme, and will be selling Pokemon merch and drinks.
