1. Welcome Everyone With Pikachu Ears

Welcome Everyone With Pikachu Ears

Imagine all the kids at your party running around with cute little Pikachu ears. How pretty and cute the sight would be? You can buy readymade Pikachu ears, in the shape of headbands, which are easy for the kids to wear, or you can even make the same at home. Give out these Pikachu ears to the kids as soon as they enter the party and ask the to wear it all through the party.

You can even have a craft counter at the party, where the kids can make their own Pikachu ears, or any other character, and then take the same home with them as a memory of your rocking Pokemon birthday party.

2. Pokemon Decorations

Pokemon Decorations

From paper printouts of Pokemon and other characters, to dollar store balloons, there are a variety of decoration items which you can use for giving your party venue the true feel of hosting a Pokemon party. There are many ideas floating around the internet on many DIY stuff which you can create on this theme. Pick those ideas and create some nice and creative decorations for the party.

To make the decorating of the venue easier, instead of trying to use too many items for decoration purposes, try to pick a few items which are visually big in size and place them strategically all over the venue to fill the entire space and make each corner of the room look like its owned by Pokemon.

3. Pokemon Party Table

Pokemon Party Table

Have a special table present at the venue, which stocks various items related to the Pokemon theme. Thus, from Pokemon stickers to Pokemon smiling faces, this table would contain all the little trinkets from the series. You can give out these items to the kids either in the form of prizes for the games or as party favors.

Simply seeing so many cute items in one place would make the kids excited. In fact, you can be sure that this table would be the most frequently visited and favorite spot in the entire venue for the kids.

4. Hand Made Balloons By Kids

Hand Made Balloons By Kids

It is common to give the kids access to paper and colors to draw something nice and then provide them with a wall or corner where they can display their creative skills. However, this is no ordinary party, it is a Pokemon party and therefore, we need to make this typical drawing activity more fun and exciting, so that even those kids, otherwise not interested in drawing, have fun participating in this activity.

Instead of paper provide the kids with colored, plain balloons. Ask the kids to draw eyes, ears, nose, mouth and other features on these balloons in such a way that the balloon starts to resemble any of the characters from this series. You will get to see many different versions of Pikachu, which probably even the creator of this character would never have thought of.

Later you can use these balloons for decorating the venue.

5. Get Your Colors Right

Get Your Colors Right

One of the things which immediately helps in associating with a particular theme of the party is the colors that are used for the decorations. As far as Pokemon is concerned, the use of red, yellow, black, white and blue would make the guests know that the theme of the party is Pokemon as soon as they enter the venue.

Paper lanterns, balloons, balls and other decoration items used, should all be in the combination of the above mentioned colors.

6. Pikachu Cupcakes

Pikachu Cupcakes

Pikachu cupcakes are a must have at any Pikachu theme party. The smiling face on the sweet and yummy cupcake is always a hit with the kids. Therefore, this is one idea which should not be skipped under any circumstances.

You can, however, get creative with the flavor of the cupcakes. The making of the face of Pikachu on the cupcake can also be done in a different and more creative manner, so that it looks a lot more appealing than any other Pokemon cupcake you have ever seen or eaten.

7. Put Up Banners

Put Up Banners

Another great way to give your party the authentic Pokemon party feel is by putting up banners all over the venue. From welcoming the guests at the entrance gate, to asking the guests to enjoy their meal, let Pokemon entertain the guests himself through your beautifully designed banners.

However, take care not to go overboard while placing these banners, or else your venue can start to look overcrowded because of the presence of too many banners.
