UNIQLO has announced its first collaboration with the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) and the Pokémon TCG Pocket app, set to launch on 11 August. This new UT Collection reimagines Pokémon nostalgia into everyday wear, featuring designs inspired by original card illustrations of beloved characters like Pikachu, Lapras, and Mewtwo. The collection includes five designs for adults and four for children, available in all UNIQLO stores and online.
To celebrate the launch, Pikachu will make special appearances at UNIQLO’s Orchard Central Global Flagship and Jewel Changi Airport stores on the release day. Fans purchasing two UTs from the collection can take photos with the Pikachu mascots between 12pm and 6.30pm. By sharing these photos on Instagram and tagging @uniqlosg, participants stand a chance to win a Pokémon Trading Card Game Deluxe Battle Deck. Entries will be accepted until 17 August, with winners announced on 18 August.
The collection offers T-shirts priced at $19.90 (£15.50) for adults and $14.90 (£11.60) for children, with sizes ranging from XS to 3XL for adults and 100 to 160 cm for children. This collaboration marks another successful venture for UNIQLO, following previous popular partnerships with the Pokémon brand. The Pokémon TCG Pocket app, which digitises the card collecting experience, complements this launch, offering fans a modern twist on a classic pastime.
