The early effects of Pokémon 25 years have a familiar red and black spherical shape: The Pokémon Company e The Wand Company have announced a collaboration that will see the second company create official reruns of the Poké Ball starting next year.
It is a product of course for collectors: at the price of $ 100 this Poké Ball with box is equipped with a technology of proximity detection, the button lights up upon the perception of movement and, when pressed, changes color or starts a sequence of lights associated with the capture of Pokémon. Each replica arrives with its own presentation case, authenticated by an individually numbered hologram and a polished and stainless steel base.
The size, color, and even weight of the item have been officially approved by The Pokémon Company. On the site it is specified that despite being very faithful to the original, it should never be launched, not even experience the thrill of being a Pokémon trainer.
The Poké Ball replica can be pre-ordered starting today through Amazon, Zavvi and other retailers. The pre-booked products will arrive on February 27, 2021, the day of Pokémon Day, and the collaboration does not stop there: Mega Balls, Ultra Balls and Premier Balls will arrive.
