Pokémon Day 2021 is very special, as it marks the franchise’s 25th anniversary. The celebration will include many new products, one of which comes from Zavvi, who has partnered with The Pokémon Company in a limited and exclusive edition clothing line.
The Pokémon x Zavvi line begins with a collector’s box limited to just 2500 units. Each box will include a black hood, black embroidered socks, a white printed cosmetic bag and a black cap with the Pokémon’s 25th anniversary Pikachu logo. There will also be a three-piece mini line that includes a sweatshirt, a white sweatshirt and a yellow t-shirt. However, the crown jewel of the collection will be the high-top sneakers featured in the video below.
The Pokémon 25th anniversary sneakers feature a handmade black and white Pikachu design with a yellow logo on the tongue. All of these items will be available for ordering on the UK’s Zavvi website (ships to the U.S.) starting today, February 27th. The launch schedule is as follows:
- Pokémon Box Collection (12h, UK / 7h, Eastern Time)
- Pokémon Mini Collection (3 pm UK / 10 am EST)
- Pokémon Signature Tennis (6 pm UK time / 1 pm EST)
Please note that prices for these items were not available at the time of writing. You can also check out the Hot Topic Pokémon 25th anniversary collection.
On a related note, the Pokémon Company and The Wand Company teamed up for a Die-Cast Poke Ball replica that is made of metal and has a high-quality painted finish – but that’s not the exciting part.
It also features proximity detection technology, which allows the Poke Ball button to shine when it detects movement. In addition, pressing the button will change the color of the Poké Ball light or start a lighting sequence to capture the Pokémon. Finally, each Poke Ball will be packaged in a special presentation box complete with a numbered hologram for authentication and multicolored lights that shine whenever someone opens the display box. You can see this in action in the video above. Pre-orders for the Poke Ball replica are available here on Amazon for $ 99.99.
