Chicago’s getting a science-meets-Pokémon exhibition that’s usually only seen in Japan. ✨️🤯
1️⃣ Runs May 22, 2026 to April 11, 2027 at the Field Museum. 2️⃣ First stop outside Japan, and the North American debut is happening in Chicago. 3️⃣ You’ll compare Fossil Pokémon to real specimens, including SUE and the Chicago Archaeopteryx. 4️⃣ It’s an add-on ticket and the museum is already flagging high interest, so if you care about a specific date, do not wait.
Would you go for the Pokémon side, or the fossils side? 👇

Staying at @staylivnchicago Hotel made everything so easy 🤍 Located right in West Loop with so many of Chicago’s best spots just a short walk away 👏🏻
The full kitchen and in-unit washer/dryer made it feel less like a hotel… and more like living in the city for a few days especially with the cool Chicago loft vibes 😍
Definitely one of those stays I’d highly recommend ✨
