Gold and Silver 25th anniversary announced
>>56915990Only a virging would go around wearing these jackets
>>56915993You could get away with it in Japan
>TPC would rather announce gold and silver 25th anniversary over SWSH's 5th anniversary
>>56915990Oh God this is like catnip to me
>>56915993What if you buy them used?
>>56915990>TPC>ever aknowledgimg jotho: thé region they hate the mostgood one anon
>>56916040>What if you buy them used?Like your girl? LOL
>>56915990Japan just consoom
>The Gen 2 PokeBall spritesI don't know why, but this always made me very happy.Buying.
>>56915993They weren't for wearing, Nintendo were ahead of the game for collectable clothing.
>>56915998You don't live in Japan faggot.>>56916165>attempting to justify being a consoomer droneSure, it's for "collecting" and not because you're a mindless consoomer who NEEDS to buy your kiddy nostalgia.
>>56915990Damn those jackets look sick. Shame I'll never be able to wear them because I'm a fat fuck.>>56916004Even they know SwShit was an absolute dumpster fire kek
>>56916177you're not cool for acitng like /pol/
>>56915990I will try to get that Ho-Oh
>>56916004>TPC would rather announce merch for Gold & Silver's 25th anniversary over ORAS's 10th anniversary
>>56916333That's because ORAS isn't canon
>>56915990What's the thing with Ethan's sprite on it next to the silver jacket? Some sort of glasses holder or something?
>>56915990>Johto region on the garbage pail because it's trash
The inner lining is cool.
I want these.
>>56916438Where can I buy this? I used to buy Pokecenter stuff from Sunyshore back in the day
>>56916446I doubt they'll release these on international Pokecenter. Some of this merch may show up on Pokevault when the line releases. He resells JP Pokemon merch for a small upcharge. Either that or one of those Japan international reselling services for also a small upcharge.
>>56916485Yeah, I'm in the UK so our official Pokémon Center is even worse, we have less stuff than the US one.
>>56915993Well i am a virgin so it's fine.
i love gen 2 and (pre-switch) pokémon so much bros
>>56916502But if you wear the jacket you run the very real risk of losing your virginity. Is it worth the risk?
>>56916558The moment you stop living for sex is the moment you'll be free
>>56916567Your attitude doesn't matter. The moment you don the jacket women will be throwing themselves at you. If you're not careful they might even rape.
>>56916177you are trying to pontificate about consumer culture on a 4chan board dedicated to a childrens' multimedia franchisesit your ass down
>>56916445I really want that Ho-oh>>56915990As for the rest, I need to see better photos. Would absolutely cop some socks
>>56916106Have Ho-oh and Lugia ever officially interacted? Or even been in the same place since the towers?
Cute whiteout dispenser. I wish they made a real glass bottle with this design.
>>56916245Yeah, the jackets are supposed to be available in Medium and Large, but I'm an American large, not a Japanese Large.
i didn't realize gold and silver's 25th was this year what the fuck
>>56916438the ugly 'lugia' text ruins it
>>56916881The ho oh text is worse desu
>>56915993
>>56916925If I had fuck you money I'd consider wearing a PSA Charizard too. Are those cases UV shielded?
>>56915990awfulgold and silver cartridges are like $2 in japan btw
>>56915990I like the ruins of alph sliding puzzles
>>56916972It's a cute idea but it looks stupid on a bag
>>56916957First hand? Proof?
>>56915990>screenshots and stock arthow boringthe best thing here are the plushiesthey should be selling Gold's hoodie
>>56915990i'm playing soul silver. what pokemon should I catch today?
>>56916999Seen them at a Hard Off in Japan>First handWho cares
>>56917000but the good old art and not the nutranime art from today
>>56917005gible
>>56915993So when are you and the rest of the waifufags on this shitty board going to buy one?
>>56917012>Who caresthe millennials who got sucked into the scam that is video game grading lmao
>>56917012>>56917024Second hand feels dirty
>>56917019Soon
>>56917053then clean it retard
There's already a similar jacket on the US store and the artwork is better suitedhttps://www.pokemoncenter.com/product/741E13730/pokemon-celio-lugia-and-ho-oh-zip-up-jacket-adult
>>56915990What did they mean by this?
25 years is a long time.
>>56917492
>>56917782
>>56917785
>>56915993But I don’t do that?
>>56917788
>>56917813
>>56917815
>>56917821
>>56917823
>>56917830
>>56915990I want the Ho-Oh plush and the Alph keychains, the jackets are kind of too in your face for my taste but they're neat too
>>56917248No pic of the liner…. The liner on the Japanese version is the #1 reason I’m interested at all.
>>56915990https://x.com/Pokemon_cojp/status/1857288557750042963
>>56917863
>>56917248The illustrations used is all over the place on that and it hurts my autism.>anime Lugia>Dream World Ho-Oh>anime reference sheet Ho-Oh>HGSS Lugia
>>56917850The other interior is incredible, I don't disagree. This one is apparently plain red, sadly. Nobody isn't going to look like an autismo wearing any of these though.
>>56917017I only have the level 1 friend safari. can you name another pokemon?
>>56916056>the Johtoschizo is a frogShameful.
>>56916881It's a really garbage font, innit?
>>56917591Looks like they actually slide. That's neat.
>>56918127It's supposed to look like historic war vet souvenir jackets, which came from Japan. Here's an older one they sold.
>>56916438Is there a full size version of the image used for the liner?
>>56915993I have a jacket like that I bought in Japan and get compliments whenever I wear it out, mind you, it's just a generic dragon jacket and not Pokemon lol. but I was really close to buying an Evangelion one.
big fan of the gold ho-oh and silver lugia but i hope this isn't them telling us they're thinking of changing ho-oh's legendarily good shiny
>>56920248I highly doubt it. I don't recall them intentionally changing a shiny except for maybe a small handful of times. It'd be especially silly in Ho-ohs case since its Shiny is already Gold AND Silver. I could see them releasing PureGold/Silver Ho-oh/Lugia as their own thing.
>>56918112
>>56916106They're gachapon capsules.Pokémon is reverse gachapon.
>>56917782I'd wear Moomoo Milk socks.
>>56917815What are these?
Will these jackets help protect my precious virginity?
>>56915993It's not 2014 anymore anon, Pokemon is normie tier
>>56915990Looks like a bunch of trash and I like Johto.
>>56920744>>56921111holy fucking kino
>not re-releasing Heartgold and Soulsilver for Switch 2>not having Gold/Silver/Crystal for NSO or just sell them again for like $4.99 each
>>56915993/Thread
>>56915993>...o-only a... v-v-VIRGINGG!! would wear something like that..!Calm down little faggot, your hands are shaking
>>56915990>25th Anniversary and they only put Entei, Raikou and Suicune in Pokemon Sleep, and now they sell a jacketFucking cringe and disappointing
>>56918061I feel the red parts of the jacket should have been gold.
>>56916106Because seeing a Pokeball resends one to the mindset of getting ready to get their next guy. And in Johto you're catching relatively often.
>>56917492kwab
>>56922342stickers
>>56922558more posters needed to be quoted for this
>>56917591Man I love Unown so much, wish they got more merch :(
>>56923982Struck a nerve huh
>>56926471Perhaps
>>56921111I miss the watercolour art
>>56923012GSC with online features is everyone's dream.
>>56926680said no one ever
>>56926684>said no one homosexual everftfy
>>56915993I live in Japan.This style of jacket is called "sukajan".They're not that common, but they're not uncool. They're rare because they're usually fucking expensive, because the embroidery is done by hand.Get fucked, uncultured swine. Maybe leave Poland or whatever shithole you live in once in a while.
>>56926754>t.
>>56915990I am violent consoomerbecause holy shit this looks amazing
>>56926680>tfw no bros to online mystery gift witg
>>56917012I got a loose copy of Stadium 2 (aka Stadium 1 outside Japan) for 330円. I bought a loose copy of Gold+new battery for too much at Super Potato (yeah, I know it's a tourist trap) and a boxed copy of Silver elsewhere for around 5000円.
>>56915993What's a virging?
>>56927805Japanese copies are lame because the cartridges aren't even colored.
>>56927845They are, the Gold and Silver cartridges are dual-colored, but they're navy blue/smoke gray with Gold being navy blue on the front and for Silver on the back, and Silver being smoke gray on the front and for Gold on the back. Crystal is the same cartridge color in English and Japanese.
>>56916881The sex though
>>56922346Indubitably.
>>56918112Or SpanishOr SudacaOr Romanian
>>56928500>SudacaYou're just making ethnicities up now.
anyone here smart enough to know what these ACTUALLY do? cause I'm debating getting one for krimbis.
>>56929644its a slide puzzle....
>>56929834how can it work? there's no empty space for the blocks to slide into
>>56929851You remove the little circle thing
Wonder if this anniversary will lead to GS showing up on Switch's NSO GB app or maybe the soundtrack shows up in the new music app Nintendo put out recently.
>>56929891Oh shit, I see it . Nice>>56929970The idea of TPC treating johto with anything other than neglect or contempt seems surreal, but they considered the 25th anniversary worth acknowledging and put real effort with the merch, so i could see it.
>>56929970>>56930210Pokémon is what you call a strategic IP. Gen I was only released on the 3DS in 2016, and Gen II in 2017, 5 and 6 years into the 3DS' lifespan with the latter being 6 months into the Switch's lifespan. It was the 20th anniversary, had Bank support, and was released on a handheld far past its prime to squeeze out more sales. Now the Switch is getting to that point, but it's also going to be followed by a device that works in the same ecosystem and builds upon it. Does this extend the Switch's lifespan in a meaningful way? The 3DS as a platform was at its end, and it was already an extension of the DS.When is it most strategic to release Pokémon on NSO? I'd say Gen X is probably a good way to market them.
>>56916446>Sunyshoreholy shit i remember that site. it was cool seeing those animation cels
>>56926941I like 2nd and 3rd from bottom-leftmaybe even throw in the 3 to the 3rd's right
>>56927740But anon, at the end of the day we're all bros here.
>>56915990desu I feel like they could've done better.
>>56915990This is the most low effort garbage I've ever seen.>uuhhhh we'll just take a bunch of game assets and slap 'em on random shitMight as well not even acknowledge GS's 25th anniversary if that's all you're doing.
>>56932959>uuhhhh we'll just take a bunch of game assets and slap 'em on random shitwoah just like gen 2
>>56917788>>56917821is there a link to that kanto-johto map in hi res?
>>56915990They'll make a Crystal remake for 25th Crystal anniversary, riiiiite?
>We want the old fanbase backlol, lmao even
>>56916925>mogs you in getting girls>mogs you in getting money>mogs you in overall popularity and success>mogs you in every other meaningful metric in life>pokemon becomes your only hobby where you get any fulfillment and you obsessively invest all of your identity and self-worth into it>mogs you there tooIt's so over for pokecels
>>56915990Game not include lmaooooooooo
>>56926471What nerve?
Meanwhile American merch Buy your Cynthia
>>56936021Ew why can't weget good shit like Japan
>>56915993God, now I'm jealous of all those virgins. You have sex once and all the virgins get to wear the cool shit.
>>56936021Jesus Christ Why
>>56936039Because Japan has standards while burgers will buy it anyway
>>56915993yeah this shit is garbage this is like 2nd hand chinese knockoff tier. what is that a dustbin?
>>56917830>None of these are based on any of the mail you can obtain in the gameI know it's just a memo pad but that's still disappointing. I guess they wanted it to be white so it would be clear for basically every color, and if that's the case yeah they picked the most iconic stuff for that, but a stationary set with those designs would still be neat.
>>56936039For all the good products they have made historically, the selection of the physical stores at any one time fucking sucks now. 90% of it is plushes (mainly Pokemon Fit), TCG accessories, items for women, and items for literal infants and toddlers. The American website is pretty decent given its large digital selection, even if we don't get everything.
>>56927820Not much man, what's virging with you?
