Nintendo’s lucrative franchise has been highly successful in enduring throughout all these years. Merchandise of all forms have been released and yet Pokémon still has something new up its sleeve: formal wear dress shirts.
Yes, Pokémon fans! You can now go to work wearing your favorite Pokémon while still looking dapper & chic. The Pokémon Company has collaborated with Japanese menswear brand Original Stitch to release Pokémon-themed dress shirts. If you find Pikachu too overrated, worry not— Original Stitch will be releasing designs for all 151 first-generation Pokémon!
According to the collaboration’s official website, fans can customize their own shirt designs and choose which Pokémon they wish to print on their dress shirts. You can have Pidgeot flying all over your shirt:
Or have Bulbasaur accent your shirt’s collar and make everyone’s favorite grass Pokémon become a literal pocket monster:
Or go lowkey still with your Pokémon obsession by picking this seemingly I Spy-ish Kakuna design:
If you want more than one Pokémon on your shirt, you can pick two as well! This one features Magikarp and its evolution, Gyarados.
Original Stitch will start taking orders for the shirts this February, with each costing around 10,000 yen. If you can’t catch your favorite Pokémon in its numerous video games, this is the chance to catch them!
