Pokemon 151 - Japanese Pokemon Clothing for Adults

Tyranitar24 | June 24, 2008 | News | Misc

The Pokemon Company has launched Pokemon 151, a brand of Pokemon clothing for adult fans of Pokemon. The official Pokemon 151 will open up Thursday and they are already on sale in Japan. Check out parts of the shirts on the right.

Here is my question to you: Would you wear these shirts out in public?

The Pokémon Company has announced Pokémon 151, a new brand intended for adult Pokémon fans. An official Web site opens Thursday, and Japanese Pokémon Center stores have begun selling four types of stylized T-shirts. In addition, a Diamond and Pearl battle tournament for ages 15 and up will be held at the Tokyo store July 4.

The four T-shirts currently available for pre-sale feature stylized designs of Hypno, Cubone, Articuno and Mewtwo, respectively.

Maybe the Articuno or Cubone one. As far as I can tell, the Pokémon logo isn't plastered everywhere. It's stylish.

I was expecting something really dorky or weird, but I gotta admit, they're pretty neat shirts.

  Yea I figured it was just going to be pictures of pokemon on plain black or white t-shirts. I still wouldn't wear one though lol.

It's not as bad as I thought but I still would NEVER wear those shirts.

The mewtwo one is kinda pushing it a bit, but they actually look like something an adult could get away with wearing in public, without looking like a total fool >_>

The bottom left one (Arctuno) looks like it is clan badge (or logo) or something, actually...

Of those 4, I'd order them (most wearable in public to least wearable) as; Arctuno, Hypno, Cubone (Still looks a bit 'kiddy' for me, but I still like it well enough), and then the Mewtwo one.

Like I said, the Mewtwo one is just pushing it a bit far >_> Sort of an "I R the Kingz of teh Pokemanz!". But really, it is more about the liberal use of the 'crown', that makes me go 'blah' >_>

I'd like a Mew one myself....but then again, I like cute things

To be honest, the shirts look amazing. I'd get my grubby little hands on those in an instant.

If only I could go to the original site.

I'd wear the Articuno one, definitely.

Cubone isn't that bad, the hypnotist (name escapes me) is better than Mewtwo, but I'd wear neither myself. And Mewtwo makes me laugh.

I like that they're not using the newer generations of them, they definitely are trying to appeal to the "older" players rather than kids.

The Articuno one looks nice, I'd wear it. Everybody knows that the 1st 151s were the only ones who made THE success. :b

  I like G/S/C as well, actually.
  
  I'd wear the Articuno one, but that's about it. These shirts would all bring back good memories though...

Cubone and Articuno ones actually look pretty neat, not sure if I'd shell out the money for one of them though
