Celebrate dinnertime with exquisite Pokémon bowls! Renowned lacquerware brand Yamada Heiando, in collaboration with The Pokémon Company, has released a limited-edition collection of Pokémon bowls inspired by the Chinese Zodiac.
This enchanting collection features Pikachu (Rat), Ekans (Snake), and Dragonite (Dragon), each meticulously crafted using traditional techniques. Yamada Heiando envisions these bowls as "gentle guardians," adding a touch of whimsy and joy to family meals. The company emphasizes their suitability for babies and children, hoping they'll become cherished keepsakes.
Each Pokémon embodies a developmental attribute: Pikachu represents kindness, Ekans symbolizes growth, and Dragonite signifies openness.
Initially sold out rapidly on January 17th, 2025, these beautiful bowls will be available again starting January 31st. A purchase limit of two per person applies. Priced at 16,500 JPY (approximately $105 USD), international shipping is available with additional charges based on packaging, season, and fuel costs. More Zodiac Pokémon bowls are promised in future releases!
Separately, The Pokémon Company launched a series of exclusive Eevee evolution figures at the Pokémon Center on January 16th, 2025.
The initial release includes Jolteon (skillful), Flareon (satisfied), and Vaporeon (playful), with the remaining Eeveelutions to follow in groups of three throughout the year, each possessing unique personality traits. These figures are available on the Pokémon Center website for $29.99 USD, with a limited edition planned for the future.
