Pokemon is pretty much all but confirmed for IOA. But I'm intrigued at what other parks beyond Orlando will get Pokemon. Could they work it in for Hollywood? Maybe a land at Beijing? The possibilities are endless.

I think it comes to every park/resort.

My guess is Pokemon comes to USH, it will be the Simpsons replacement for that park. Perhaps what might have been for USF before plans shifted to IOA.

Assuming it does the kind of numbers in merch that Nintendo does, these lands will easily pay for themselves in no time.

Get ready for empty merch shelves due to scalping if the Pokémon Trading Card market is anything to go by. Especially for anything park exclusive.

I can see Pokémon eventually making it to most/all of the Universal parks around the world. It is obviously well-suited to be a land, but unlike Mario, it can more easily work as a singular attraction in parks with more restricted space to work with.

This is arguably a bigger deal than Mario was. If it hadn't basically been soft-confirmed for like, 6 years now, this would be the hypest moment imaginable.

Sincerely hope they deliver on this. Pokémon is huge and incredibly fitting for a theme park format. Power fantasy role-playing game, with primary themes of exploring natural and urban areas, discovering exciting monsters with all kinds of flashy elemental powers, collecting items and creatures using bespoke technology, bonding with your group and fighting against bad guys, and shopping. This could be a cash and marketing juggernaut for UDX if they pull it off right.
