Choose your starter Pokémon, complete challenges to build your team, and face the gym leader to become a Pokémon Master in this special after-hours adventure! Ages 6-9.
Pokémon sightings have been reported at the Downtown Library! The entire Children's Department has been transformed into a safari zone, and you have been chosen to become a Pokémon trainer so you can catch 'em all!
Once you enter the Downtown Library, the Professor will provide you with a Pokédex, and you will select your very own starter Pokémon. With your customized Pokéball in hand, you'll journey into the safari zone to catch different types of Pokémon, battle against Team Rocket, and build your Pokémon team. When you're ready, you'll face off against the gym leader to become a Pokémon Master!
Note: Due to limited space, registration is required to attend. Only one child (age 6–9) and one accompanying adult (age 18 and above) per registration form will be permitted.
