In a weird promotional tie-in, the Pokemon Company International and Japanese lingerie company Yummy Mart are partnering up to release a Pokemon-inspired line of lingerie.
With Pokemon Sun and Moon coming out later this year, and the Pokemon GO augmented reality game following shortly afterwards, we were confident in declaring 2016 as the year of Pokemon. But nothing could have prepared us for the upcoming promotional tie-in product that The Pokemon Company has in store for Pokemon fans.
While some companies settle for simple tie-in products like Batman statues, The Pokemon Company decided to eschew simplicity in favor of something a little more eye-catching by announcing an upcoming line of Pokemon-inspired lingerie. In probably one of the weirdest promotional tie-ins we’ve seen in recent memory, The Pokemon Company and Japanese lingerie company Yummy Parts will offer Pokemon fans a lingerie line that includes products such as a Pikachu cape, Pikachu underpants, Pikachu sleep mask, Poke Ball-clad shorts, and a Poke Ball-shaped toiletry bag.
This lingerie line will be available on April 20th, and those interested in purchasing some of these Pokemon lingerie pieces and accessories can order from the Yummy Mart online store – though it appears that the line is currently only available for Japanese fans.
For all the weirdness that comes with wearing Pikachu underpants, this isn’t the first time The Pokemon Company has put out some odd merchandise. Just a few months ago, The Pokemon Company revealed its Hip Pop! Parade collection, which sold items that focused specifically on the Poke-posteriors of several monsters. As for those Western fans who are keen on getting their hands on some Pokemon fashion items that isn’t lingerie or butts of fictional monsters, there’s the new lifestyle line of unisex clothing items based off of Pokemon, which was announced a couple of months ago in an event hosted by Drew Barrymore.
News of this new lingerie line caps off a big week of news for Pokemon. Just a couple of days ago, rumors were flying around about a possible live-action Pokemon film, and a massive bidding war over the film’s rights is nearing a conclusion. With new handheld Pokemon games coming soon, a mobile augmented reality game following shortly afterwards, a live-action Pokemon film potentially in the works, and now a new line of Pokemon-inspired clothing, the franchise’s 20th anniversary is definitely shaping up to be something special – and headline worthy.
One thing is for sure though, this new line of Pokemon lingerie means we’ll probably have to update our list of weird facts about Pokemon.

“I Choose Thee, Lingerie!” Sexy POKEMON Underwear Is Coming

Thanks to the wonder of the Internet and sites like Deviantart, we have long since known that if a cartoon exists, someone has turned it into a sexy fetish thing. And yet it still surprises us when a brand like Pokemon officially endorses that line of thinking, sometimes.
Note the disclaimer that indicates the picture is a bit of a cruel tease for any ladies who genuinely want multiple Pikachus all over their private areas. The actual collection appears in the larger, featured image above, and, the naughtiest it gets is the lacy panties, but still–“lacy” and “yummy” are not words one generally uses to describe Pokemon. Also available: a hooded towel, a sleep-mask that makes you look like Pikachu (all the more appealing if you have a bed-mate who fantasizes about making out with yellow electric critters, we presume), shorts, a tank top, and a laundry pouch. Because nothing says sexy like, “Hey girl, I’mma wash your clothes so you have one less household chore to do.” (Trust me: when you’re married, that goes over like gangbusters…as long as you fold the clothes and put them away too.)
Per Polygon, “The pieces go on sale at 10 a.m. local time next Wednesday. They’re Japan-only for now, so dedicated fans of Pokémon and frilly things should plan accordingly.”
This is where I’d make some kind of joke about Pokeballs, and assume that my editor would smack it down instantly for being too gross. [Editor’s Note: Not without laughing first.] So just imagine I told an off-color joke here, and it’s probably funnier than what I’d have actually said anyhow. Just tell me this in comments below: would you want your significant other to don this apparel? Are you planning on slipping into it? Or is there a character more suitable than Pikachu who needs lingerie love? We’re all ears.
