A Pokémon-themed 7-Eleven store has recently opened in Taiwan.

The store is located in the Banqiao district in New Taipei City, near the Fuzhong metro station.

In addition to the usual items that a 7-Eeleven store sells, there are extra goodies that every Pokémon fan can enjoy.

Not the first time

This isn't the first time a 7-Eleven store in Taiwan went viral for its unique theme.

Previously, another store in Taipei opened with a Snoopy theme.

It sold Snoopy merchandise and displayed characters of the comic all around the store.

Cool.
