The extremely popular " Pokemon " series, which started with "Pokemon Red and Green," has been expanded to " Pokemon " in short.
The "Mochimono" system, first introduced in "Pokémon Gold and Silver," allows Pokémon to carry various items to show their effects in battle and other situations.
A typical example of such a "sticky item" is the " Berries.
Currently, there are more than 60 different kinds of Berries, including Ovon Berries and Kurabo Berries.
They must be very tasty, as they heal HP and abnormalities and improve status. I want to try them!
Tokyo Banana, a staple of Tokyo souvenirs, is now selling a product that will make your wish come true!
Pokemon turned into Tokyo Banana! The first product is Pikachu!
Have you ever had "Tokyo Banana"?
The balance between the soft sponge and the mouthwatering banana custard is so exquisite that even I, a resident of Tokyo, find myself craving it from time to time.
Tokyo Banana World, a Tokyo souvenir brand that sells such Tokyo Banana, is now releasing a new series of sweets called " Pokémon Tokyo Banana.
The concept is "fluffy and cute Pokémon are always with you. Pikachu Tokyo Ban ana" is the first product in the series.
The first product is a sponge cake baked in the shape of Pikachu and filled with " Nana-no-Mimi style thick banana custard cream," which is inspired by the " Nana-no-Mimi " that appears in the game.
The Pikachu pattern on the sponge cake is
- Happy Pikachu
- Wink Pikachu
- Hello Pikachu
- Sleeping Pikachu
- Good night Pikachu
- Pikachu Tail
...a total of 6 kinds! The sponge cake batter is perfect for Pikachu's fluffy body!
Among them, the heart Pikachu tail, which represents the female Pikachu's back, is a rare pattern that is only occasionally included.
The "Pikachu Tokyo Banana" comes in packs of two, individually packaged in a bag designed to look like a Monster Ball.
The Pikachu pattern is randomized, so buy as many as you can to complete the set!
The package design is a fluffy Pikachu drawn in the image of Tokyo Banana's sponge !
There are a total of 6 types here, but you can choose the one you see when you buy it because it is a package design.
They are all so cute and fuzzy! I'm tempted to complete all the varieties here too!
The Pikachu will go on sale sequentially at all Seven-Eleven stores in Japan from November 21, 2020 (Saturday)!
The first in the series, "Pikachu Tokyo Banana" will go on sale at all Seven-Eleven stores in Japan except Okinawa.
