Yamada Heiando, a renowned lacquerware brand, has released a limited-edition collection of three exquisite Pokémon bowls, each inspired by a Chinese Zodiac animal. Discover the charm of these unique pieces!

Spend Dinner with Handcrafted Pokémon Bowls

Featuring Pikachu, Ekans, and Dragonite

This stunning collaboration between Yamada Heiando and The Pokémon Company brings together traditional Japanese lacquerware craftsmanship and beloved Pokémon characters. Pikachu (Rat), Ekans (Snake), and Dragonite (Dragon) are beautifully rendered in these handcrafted bowls.

Yamada Heiando envisions these bowls as "gentle guardians," watching over families as they share meals together. Designed with babies and children in mind, the company hopes these bowls will become cherished keepsakes, symbolizing a child's happy growth.

Each Pokémon represents a specific aspect of childhood development: Pikachu embodies kindness, Ekans symbolizes growth, and Dragonite represents openness.

Initially released on January 17, 2025, these bowls sold out incredibly fast. A second sales period begins January 31st, offering another chance to own these unique collectibles. Note that purchases are limited to two items per person.

Priced at 16,500 JPY (approximately $105 USD), these bowls are available with international shipping. Please be aware that additional charges may apply depending on packaging size, peak season surcharges, and aviation fuel costs.

Yamada Heiando has hinted at future releases featuring other Pokémon Zodiac bowls. Mark your calendars for January 31st!
