Pokémon is getting the fashion treatment.
Roughly 151 original Pokémon characters are the inspiration behind a partnership between the gaming company and fashion brand Original Stitch, which will be hosting a New York pop-up shop for the collection this weekend.
First launching in Asia at its Harajuku store, the collection will now be available for purchase in the U.S. starting Friday. Pokémon fans can customize their own shirts on Original Stitch’s web site, choosing between three styles and the 151 print options, which are based on fan-favorite characters like Pikachu, Charmander, Squirtle and Jigglypuff, among others.
