Pokemon Day 2021 is very special because it marks 25 years since this franchise. The celebration includes plenty of new girl, and one of those calls comes from Zavvi, who has partnered with the Pokemon Company on a special limited edition print clothing line.
The Pokemon x Zavvi lineup starts with a collection box of only 2500 units. Each box will feature a black hoodie, black embroidered socks, a white printed beauty bag and a black cap with the Pokemon 25th anniversary Pikachu logo. There will also be a small three-piece range that includes a hoodie, white sweatshirt, and yellow t-shirt. However, the crown jewel of the collection is the high top sneakers seen in the video below.
The 25th anniversary Pokémon sneakers feature a hand-crafted black and white Pikachu design with a yellow logo on the tongue. All of these items will be available for order on the Zavvi UK website (ships to the US) starting today, 27 February. The release table is as follows:
- Pokemon Box Collection (12pm UK time / 7m EST US)
- Mini Pokémon Collection (3pm UK time / 10m EST US)
- Pokémon signature sneakers (6pm UK time / 1pm US EST)
Please note that prices for these items were not available at the time of writing. You may also want to check out the 25th anniversary collection of Pokémon Hot Topic Day.
On a related note, the Pokemon Company and The Wand Company have teamed up for a replica of a Die-Cast Poke Ball that is made of metal and has a painted finish – but that’s not even the interesting part .
It also features proximity sensing technology, which allows the Poke Ball button to glow when it senses movement. Additionally, pressing the button will change the light color of the Poke Ball or start a lighting sequence that captures Pokemon. Finally, each Poke Ball is packaged in a special display case with a hologram with numbers for confirmation and multi-colored lights that glow when someone opens the display case. You can see it in action in the video above. Pre-orders for a live Poke Ball replica are here on Amazon for $ 99.99.
