On the official Japanese Pokemon website, details about the new Original StitchPokemonshirts were shared. According to the post, 36 new patterns will be made available to fans, all of them featuring a specificPokemon from the Kanto region. This includes all evolutions of the three Kanto starters, as well as the three Eevee evolutions such as Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon. The original legendary birds, Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos, are also part of the refreshed designs, which is great news for lovers of the firstPokemongames.
The refreshed Kanto region collection of Original Stitch will be available on July 30, 2025. Fans can order them through the official site at the base price of 11,000 yen, roughly $97 USD. However, this is for the basicPokemon-themed fabric. For custom options, including reversible designs, embroidery, Poke Ball buttons, and more, the price will definitely rise. Given the options available for its customers, it is not surprising for thePokemonx Original Stitch shirts to be expensive, compared to other fashion collaborations.
For hardcorePokemonfans that are looking to find a way to subtly infuse their fandom into their daily wear, the cost may not be that much of a factor. However, given how avid Japanese fans can be, it may be possible that the collection will sell out soon. Interested buyers should check out their purchases as soon as they can, if they really want to bring home some of these uniquePokemonpolo shirts from Original Stitch.
