Pokemon and LeSportsac will collaborate on a series of Pokemon-inspired bags and pouches. The collection will appear for a limited time in pop-up stores between November 17 to November 23, 2021 in Japan. These dates may change in the future. LeSportsac will also hold a live-stream on November 16, 2021 to discuss and show off the Pokemon products. [Thanks, Game Watch!]
Aside from merely appearing as a pattern, some of the bags will feature Pikachu’s tail as a zipper charm. Said bags also are metallic gold in color, which makes it look a little bit more like you are carrying around a Pikachu. Other Pokemon that appear are Piplup and Gengar, though they’re only featured on the pouches. They also appear in the pattern of the Pokemon & Flowers collection, alongside Pokemon like Eevee, Snorlax, and Psyduck.
