Pokémon's collaboration with the European Space Agency has officially led to a merch drop. The new collection includes two new Pikachu plushies, listed at $29.99, which feature the electric-type Pokemon in two versions of the ESA space suit. Recognize the design?

The European Space Agency (ESA) and Pokémon have teamed up to release an official collection of merchandise celebrating the partnership. The collection, set to launch ahead of World Space Week on October 4, features a Pikachu plushie and other items inspired by the astronaut Pikachu who flew to the International Space Station with ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot.
The astronaut Pikachu plush, priced at $29.99, is a replica of the space suit worn by ESA astronaut Sophie during her mission to the International Space Station. The collection also includes apparel, pins, and Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) accessories like a binder, deck box, and playmat, all showcasing astronaut Pikachu alongside other Pokémon like Lunatone, Cosmog, and Minior.
Fans can also purchase a full bomber jacket featuring individual Pokémon patches and a Poké Ball zipper for $129.99. While most items are already available for purchase, a Pikachu astronaut figure with no release date is still in the works, offering more for fans to anticipate during the wait for Generation 10 of the Pokémon franchise.
