BABY-G and The Pokémon Company, announced a new addition coming to the BABY-G line of women’s shock-resistant watches, the BA-110PKC, featuring the fan-favourite Pokémon, Pikachu, from the globally popular entertainment franchise.
Last year, to celebrate BABY-G’s 25th year, Casio issued a collaboration model featuring
Pikachu, the 25th Pokémon in the Pokédex. That anniversary model employed a dot-painting style reminiscent of video game art in the 90s, when BABY-G and Pokémon first released, and the Pikachu design elements throughout the whole digital watch were well-received around the world.
This second collaboration is an analog-digital watch with an outdoor theme, representing the active image of the BABY-G brand. The entire BA-110PKC band showcases a camouflage pattern and female Pikachu with a heart-shaped tail. The Pikachu design is infused with subtle details like the silhouette of the pink tail on the strap keeper and the Pikachu image etched on the case back. The hour and minute hands also evoke the face of Pikachu, a playful touch that will delight the wearer whenever they check the time.
This unique model comes in special packaging inspired by the iconic Poké Ball, adding to the unique experience of owning this Pikachu-themed watch.
The global launch of the Pokémon x BABY-G BA-110PKC will be on the end of February or early March 2021.
