Someone’s viral marketing scheme must have worked, because I have seen these goddamned shirts everywhere, and yet I also desperately feel like buying them at the expense of a few lost meals. The idea behind this clothing line, presented by the “Pokémon Company,” is to offer some stylish and somewhat sophisticated merchandise for the older pokémon fan that already has a closet full of plushies and the like.

The shirts are Japan-only for now, but I could see a US release being very lucrative as well, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that were to happen in the future. As of now we have four shirt designs featuring Hypno, Mewtwo, Articuno, and Cubone. For more updates you can check out the official POKéMON 151 site here.
