Pokémon Center Launches New Fighting Type Merch Collection

The Pokémon Center is ready to help fans break a sweat with a brand-new merchandise lineup dedicated to the hard-working Fighting-type Pokémon of the franchise.
The new “Training” series of goods celebrates the disciplined and often humorous daily lives of Pokémon who live for the grind.

The new merchandise features illustrations by popular manga artist and illustrator Takahashi Kino, known for the “Neko no Boo-chan” series and her distinctively soft, expressive art style.

A standout piece is a plush toy of Machamp designed with a hidden mechanism that causes its arms to move up and down whenever its feet are squeezed, mimicking a repetitive training exercise.

The “Training” series includes a variety of practical and quirky lifestyle goods.
Kitchen tasks get a power boost with a magnetic bottle opener featuring a brawny Machamp, while the apparel line offers a stylish way to represent the Fighting-type spirit.

The long-sleeved T-shirts feature “training tool” graphics printed down the sleeves and detailed embroidery on the chest and back for a premium feel.

For a more casual or “street-style” look, fans can pair the shirts with Scraggy-themed loose socks cleverly designed to look like the Pokémon is pulling up its skin for defense.
