Spend Dinner with Handcrafted Pokemon Bowls
Featuring Pikachu, Ekans, and Dragonite
Yamada Heiando, a celebrated Japanese lacquerware brand, has joined forces with The Pokémon Company to craft bowls that celebrate the Chinese Zodiac using time-honored techniques. The featured Pokémon characters are Pikachu (representing the rat), Ekans (symbolizing the snake), and Dragonite (embodying the dragon).
These Pokémon are described by the lacquerware company as "gentle guardians watching over you and your children during your meals." Yamada Heiando focuses on families, especially babies and children, with the hope that "this product will become a cherished vessel that fosters joy and growth in your child’s daily life."
Each bowl comes with a unique message tied to a child's development: Pikachu embodies kindness, Ekans signifies growth, and Dragonite represents openness.
These beautiful bowls sold out rapidly within hours of their launch on January 17, 2025. A second chance to purchase them will be available starting January 31, with a limit of two items per person.
Priced at 16,500 JPY, approximately $105 USD per set, these bowls are also available for international shipping, with additional charges based on packaging size, peak season surcharges, and aviation fuel prices.
Yamada Heiando has hinted at the release of additional Pokémon-themed zodiac bowls in the future. Mark your calendars for January 31 to secure these delightful Pokémon bowls!
