Orders Open for Limited Edition Pokémon x Pro Baseball Collab Merch

The Japanese professional baseball team “Yokohama DeNA BayStars” have officially revealed the second wave of exclusive apparel and accessories for their upcoming “Pokémon Baseball Festa 2026” game day.
This exciting new drop perfectly blends the monster-catching universe with the passionate world of Japanese professional baseball.

The monumental event is part of the overarching “Japan Professional Baseball 12 Teams x Pokémon 30th Anniversary Special Project” that was originally announced in February 2026.
The Pokémon franchise launched in 1996 and quickly became a global phenomenon centered around teamwork, strategy, and friendly competition.

These core themes align perfectly with the spirit of professional baseball, bringing spectacular celebrations to stadiums across the country.

The Yokohama DeNA BayStars will host their portion of the massive collaborative event during a scheduled home series against the Tokyo Yakult Swallows on May 23 and May 24.
To celebrate these weekend games, the organization has prepared an extensive lineup of stadium-ready items featuring fan-favorite pocket monsters.

The creative designs prominently feature the iconic electric mouse Pikachu dressed in a full custom baseball uniform ready to hit the diamond.
Alongside the series mascot, the round water-type mouse Marill makes a special appearance playfully integrated with the official BayStars team logo.
These energetic character illustrations are expertly printed onto high-quality everyday goods and cheering equipment.
