The Pokemon Monorail will travel between Haneda Airport's domestic and international terminals, but also travel along the entire Tokyo Monorail line, guiding visitors all the way to Hamamatsucho in central Tokyo. Each monorail car is said to have a designated Pokemon type, including Pikachu, Snorlax, Bulbasaur, and Articuno.
The Pokemon Monorail makes its debut departing from Haneda Airport on July 1st, and is slated to run until June 2020. Here's to hoping for Pokemon merchandise kiosks outside the terminals.
