UNIQLO Unveils Second Pokémon 30th Anniversary UT Collection
The popular Japanese fashion retailer UNIQLO has officially revealed the second wave of its special “Pokémon 30th Anniversary UT Collection”.
This exciting new apparel announcement serves as a direct follow-up to an initial Pokémon anniversary line that launched earlier this year in March 2026.
While that first wave heavily featured nostalgic watercolor-style artwork inspired by the original Pokémon Red and Green games, this upcoming release shifts its aesthetic focus to the classic 8-bit roots of the hit series.
The second commemorative lineup embraces retro monochrome pixel art, depicting iconic creatures and protagonists exactly as they appeared at the very origin of the franchise.
UNIQLO has stated that the upcoming collection will offer a variety of exclusive designs separated into adult and kids sizes to accommodate fans of all ages.
The adult range focuses on a sleek monochrome style, showcasing nostalgic imagery such as the original game title screen, the Kanto region Gym Leaders, and a legendary encounter with Mewtwo.
Meanwhile, the children’s line takes that classic pixel art foundation and updates it with vibrant pops of color to create a fun, modern twist.
Older fans looking to expand their wardrobe can choose from the following adult designs, which will be available in sizes ranging from XS to 4XL:
- Pokémon UT Red Version T-Shirt
- Pokémon UT Kanto Gym T-Shirt
- Pokémon UT Mewtwo and Mew Pixel Art T-Shirt
- Pokémon UT Pikachu Evolution T-Shirt
The colorful kids lineup will be available in sizes spanning from 100cm to 160cm, and includes the following options:
- Pokémon UT Red Version T-Shirt
- Pokémon Pixel Art T-Shirt
- Pokémon Pikachu Faces T-Shirt
- Pokémon Pikachu Pixel Art T-Shirt
- Pokémon Gengar Pixel Art T-Shirt
Adult sizes will be priced at 1,990 yen each (approx. $13 USD / £10 GBP).
The children’s shirts will be available to purchase for 990 yen each (approx. $6 USD / £5 GBP).
The second wave of the UNIQLO Pokémon 30th Anniversary UT collection is officially scheduled to launch in late July 2026 at UNIQLO stores across Japan, as well as via the UNIQLO online store.
