The Pokemon Company has revealed a sneak peek into the 2024 Pokemon World Championships, showcasing new and exclusive merchandise that will be available for players to discover during their exploration. The secret is out, the Pikachu is now out of the bag.
The top players of Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, Pokemon Go, and Pokemon TCG will battle for the title and the chance to be recognized as the world’s greatest player. This will remain true until the year 2025, when the next Worlds competition takes place.
The upcoming event will be held in Honolulu, just like previous competitions. As in past competitions, a Pokemon Center will be present at the venue offering unique plush toys and other merchandise that can only be found there. We now have a better understanding of what will be available at the Pokemon Center.
Amidst the plethora of exquisite new collectibles for enthusiasts to acquire (as reported by IGN), there are several items with Honolulu/Hawaii-inspired designs, such as Pikachu dressed in a scuba suit, a Riolu donning a wetsuit and holding an underwater camera, and even an Azumarill adorned with a traditional Hawaiian plumeria.
In addition to cuddly creatures, there are also backpacks, card holders, and even a ukulele decorated with Pokemon designs and the symbol of this year’s tournaments.
IGN announced the updates on their social media platforms, prompting fans to both celebrate the new releases and express disappointment over their limited availability. One fan commented, “This is really awesome, I just wish I could purchase some of those deck boxes.”
In response to the post, a second person commented, “That’s incredibly adorable, I’m excited.”Meanwhile, a third individual noted the intricate details shown, stating, “Even Pikachu’s paw pads feature electric patterns. So precious.”
According to Cindy Ruppenthal, senior director of Pokémon Center, the inspiration for the merchandise was revealed in a statement to IGN. She explained that this year’s designs were influenced by the colorful marine life and lush flora found in Hawai’i, capturing the essence and beauty of the islands.
In addition, she elaborates on the concept behind both the merchandise and the store itself, stating, “The design of the pop-up store and the Worlds product line serve as a reminder for fans to fully appreciate this incredible location.”
