Explore Miyazaki Through the Special 'Nassy' Stamp Rally in 2026

In an exciting collaboration between the Miyazaki Prefecture and The Pokémon Company, the 'Nassy Tour in Miyazaki Stamp Rally 2026' is set to take place, inviting Pokémon fans to discover the charming sights of Miyazaki Prefecture. This initiative is part of an ongoing effort that began in October 2020, when Miyazaki signed a partnership agreement with Pokémon to use their iconic character 'Nassy' as a promotional ambassador to enhance the region's visibility and promote tourism.

The stamp rally runs from August 1, 2026, to February 28, 2027, offering both locals and tourists a unique chance to engage with the area while enjoying activities designed around the beloved Pokémon. Participants will be able to collect digital stamps from various locations throughout Miyazaki, including 'Pokéfuta' (Pokémon manhole covers), roadside stations, dams, and bridges, turning the rally into an enchanting tour across the prefecture.

By participating in the rally and collecting the necessary number of stamps, attendees will enter a lottery to win exclusive 'Miyazaki’s Favorite Pokémon' merchandise featuring Nassy, as well as specialty products unique to the region. Last year's rally attracted participation from over 10,000 avid fans, and this year, the organizers are hoping for even greater engagement.

This year’s effort not only aims to boost tourism in Miyazaki but also enhances community bonds by involving local residents in the celebration of the region’s natural beauty and cultural heritage. The significance of this rally lies in its potential to foster stronger connections between Pokémon, the local community, and the beautiful landscapes of Miyazaki.
