In partnership with the Japanese Red Cross Society, Niantic Japan has announced that 45 blood donation centres across the Kantō and Kōshin'etsu regions are being added to Pokémon GO today as PokéStops. These PokéStops, which show images of Chansey, can be spun by trainers to obtain various in-game items, including Poké Balls and specially-designed Gifts. The Pokémon GO development team have stated that they hope this initiative will help encourage people playing Pokémon GO to contribute to blood donations.

A full list of these collaboration PokéStops can be found (in Japanese) at https://www.bs.jrc.or.jp/ktks/bbc/2022/03/post-120.html

In order to prevent overcrowding at each location and reduce waiting times for blood donors, the Japanese Red Cross Society have requested people to make reservations at the following website:
