Razer Launches New Pokémon 30th Anniversary Gaming Headset Collection
Image by Charlotte DavisGaming hardware manufacturer Razer has officially unveiled three new Pokémon-themed gaming headsets as part of the franchise’s ongoing 30th anniversary celebrations.
The latest additions to the “Razer × Pokémon Collection” feature Charizard, Lucario and Sylveon, introducing two wireless gaming headsets and a new wired design inspired by the popular Pokémon.
Pokémon first launched in Japan in 1996 with Pokémon Red and Green for the original Game Boy, growing into one of the world’s biggest entertainment franchises through its video games, anime, trading card game and merchandise.
Razer has previously collaborated with The Pokémon Company International on several gaming accessory collections, including a Pikachu and Eevee-themed lineup released in July 2026, which introduced matching headsets, keyboards, gaming mice and mouse mats.
Earlier that same month, Razer also launched a separate Espeon and Umbreon collection, featuring a coordinated range of purple accessories inspired by the two popular Eeveelutions.
For this latest collaboration, Razer has adapted its existing BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed and Kraken V4 X headsets with exclusive Pokémon artwork and color schemes, offering fans a choice between wireless esports-focused models and a more colorful wired alternative.
Let’s take a look at the three new headsets!
- “Razer BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed – Charizard Edition” – $139.99
A black and orange wireless gaming headset decorated with Charizard artwork and flame-inspired accents, featuring second-generation TriForce 50 mm audio drivers, low-latency 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity, Bluetooth support, and a detachable microphone.
- “Razer BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed – Lucario Edition” – $139.99
A blue and black version inspired by the Aura Pokémon, featuring Lucario illustrations and energy-themed graphics across the headband and earcups, with the same wireless technology and audio specifications as the Charizard Edition.
- “Razer Kraken V4 X – Sylveon Edition” – $109.99
A pink and blue wired headset inspired by Sylveon’s ribbon-like feelers and bows, featuring TriForce 40 mm audio drivers, a retractable HyperClear Cardioid microphone and customizable Razer Chroma RGB lighting.
Both BlackShark V3 X HyperSpeed models support up to 70 hours of battery life and can connect through 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth, or USB-C, making them compatible with PCs, supported consoles, and mobile devices.
The Sylveon Edition instead uses a wired USB connection with Type-C and Type-A support, and all three headsets offer 7.1 surround sound functionality on compatible Windows PCs.
The new collection is now available in the US, with the Lucario Edition having launched on October 7, 2026, followed by the Charizard and Sylveon designs on October 13.
All three headsets are available through Target in the US, with the Charizard Edition also offered directly through Razer, while customers in the UK, Europe, Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand can purchase the collection through Razer and participating retailers.
