2021 is going to be a massive celebratory year for The Pokémon Company. Outside of the series celebrating its 25th anniversary, plenty of its games, merchandise, and licensing agreements will be partaking in the festivities. One of these is the partnership with Original Stitch for the Pokémon Shirts collection. Launched on February 27th, 2019, to coincide with the franchise’s anniversary, Pokémon Shirts will be turning two soon and their party plans are big. We’re talking 135 new designs big! From Pokémon Shirts’ site:
“Pokémon Shirts will celebrate its 2nd anniversary on Saturday, February 27, 2021[,] with the release of our next generation of designs from the Hoenn Region. 135 Pokémon patterns appearing in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire will be added to the available 251!”
The designs for Treecko, Torchic, and Mudkip have been shared early. You can view them below:
Leading up to the big launch day, we’ll see more designs shared on Instagram and Twitter. Right now, the official Pokémon Shirts Twitter account is even having fans vote on which design sporting Shroomish should be sold.
