With there being hundreds of individual Pokemon and multiple regions that they’ve spawned from, most players likely have at least one favorite. This makesPokemona perfect choice for customizable original dress shirts made by Original Stitch, and the two companies have been partnered for some time now doing just that.
Original Stitch andPokemonoriginally teamed up back in 2019 to produce shirts that have gradually expanded to include polo shirts, dress shirts, and Hawaiian-style shirts covered inPokemondesigns. The company began with theKanto region, but has been regularly expanding outwards to the later games' regions, including Sinnoh.

Original Stitchinitially released a small batch of Sinnoh-basedPokemondesigns a few months ago, but eager fans may have been waiting for the company to announce the next wave. The Diamond wave is now officially out, adding 25 more Sinnoh Pokemon designs to the catalog, including Dialga, Lucario, Leafeon, Croagunk, Electivire, and more. The company now offers 429 designs for its clothing creations, but it’s not stopping the expansion anytime soon.
Original Stitch is currently on-schedule, as it previously announced that the Diamond wave would come out during July. Fans who are disappointed to see that their favorite Pokemon aren’t represented yet will likely just need to wait a while. Original Stitch is planning on the next wave joining the catalog in late October, with even more on the way in January 2023.Pokemon Scarlet and Violetwill have released by then, and it’s likely only a matter of time before new Pokemon from that generation join the line-up.
What sets Original Stitch’sPokemondesigns apart from otherPokemonshirts is the sheer number of customization options. Fans can not only choose between the three basic designs for the shirts, but they can also make them even more unique by adding Pokeball buttons or Pokemon embroidery details, or mixing and matching different Pokemon fabric designs. The company also lets fans order aprons, bandanas, and masks made from the same fabrics.
When it got its start, many detractors believedPokemonwas a temporary fadthat would blow over like any other. However, it’s become clear thatPokemonis here to stay, and many of the fans who grew up with it haven’t let it go. FancyPokemonjewelry, expensive collectibles, and Original Stitch’s customizablePokemondesigns show that the older fans are still keeping their hearts (and wallets) open to the series as time rolls on. WithPokemon Scarlet and Violetcoming out later this year, chances are thePokemonfever will only intensify from here on out among young and old alike.
