\n\tPok\u00e9mon is the latest \u201890s and 2000s trend to see resurgence this year, and Puma<\/a> is getting in on the action.<\/p>\n

\n\tCreated in celebration of the global entertainment franchise\u2019s 30th anniversary, the collection comes to life through a full collection of adult and kids\u2019 designs, with a playful nod<\/a> to beloved Pok\u00e9mon such as Pikachu, Mimikyu, Espeon and Umbreon.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe star of the show is a special launch from Puma<\/a> Hoops capturing the essence of the popular Pok\u00e9mon character Pikachu. The shoe in an electrified take on the Puma All-Pro Nitro 2 sneaker, featuring a bold Pikachu-inspired yellow colorway, lightning-bolt details, and custom details throughout.<\/p>\n

\n\tOther footwear highlights include reworks of the Mostro model<\/a> for Espeon in a pale pink and grey colorway as well as an Inverse sneaker for Mimikyu in an off-white and black colorway. The Fade Nitro also makes an appearance with special daytime colorway for Pikachu in yellow with black hits and a nighttime version for Umbreon in black with hits of yellow. All versions feature custom hangtags, and subtle Pok\u00e9mon character detailing.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for the apparel, the collection features relaxed silhouettes like the T-shirt, hoodie, and shorts, which feature clean graphic treatments. Sport-driven details run throughout, including a matching PumaTech-X tracksuit set and oversized jerseys finished with uniform-inspired numbers that reference Espeon and Umbreon. Accessories like the cap and satchel round out the offering.<\/p>\n

\n\tTo highlight the drop<\/a>, the duo created the \u201cInto Another World\u201d campaign aimed at mirroring the contrast between the Sun Pok\u00e9mon Espeon and the Moonlight Pok\u00e9mon Umbreon.<\/p>\n

\n\tOffered in family sizing, the Puma x Pok\u00e9mon collection will be available starting April 2 from Puma.com, Puma flagship stores and selected Puma retailers.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe launch comes at a time when Pok\u00e9mon cards are rising sharply in popularity. A rare Pikachu Illustrator card, owned by influencer and wrestler Logan Paul, sold for more than $16 million in February, which set a record for the most expensive trading card ever sold at auction.<\/p>\n
