adidas and Pokémon unveil 30th‑anniversary sneaker collection

adidas and The Pokémon Company announced a 12‑model sneaker line to mark Pokémon’s 30th anniversary, slated for a September 2026 launch. The collection reimagines classic adidas silhouettes—including Superstar, Samba, ZX 8000, Adistar and F50—by adding Pokémon‑specific details such as molded horns, wing‑shaped laces, and custom tongue labels.

Key characters featured are Pikachu (with three Superstar versions), Mewtwo, Rayquaza, and the full Charmander evolution line, as well as Nebulak, Alpollo and Gengar. Each shoe blends the brand’s design language with visual cues from the chosen Pokémon, creating limited‑edition pieces aimed at collectors and fans alike.
