From Matsushima, I arrived at Sendai, my base for this trip.

 October is the beginning of autumn. I had been planning to go on a trip to Miyagi Prefecture for some time.  Miyagi prefecture's ambassadorial Pokémon is Lapras. Each city, town or village can negotiate on its own to locate its own pokefuta. However, if the prefecture sets a ambassadorial Pokémon, pokefutas with that Pokémon on them will be placed throughout the municipalities under the prefecture. It is very hard to complete everything, but It will be challenging.

 2022 is Shinkansen year; This is the anniversary year since the opening of the railroad in Japan. JR East launched various campaigns, so I decided to go to Ojiya city in Niigata Prefecture to take advantage of them!
