Heinz × Pokemon Collaboration

Since Pokemon is celebrating its 30th anniversary, there have been a lot of collaboration events lately. With the rise of AI, it’s getting harder to tell what’s real and what’s not, but have you seen the potential Heinz × Pokemon collab/leaks?

I get how Pikachu liked ketchup in the TV series, but is this going a bit too far? I personally don’t care for the art and find it a little too abstract for a Pokemon card. But there have been plenty of odd ways to get promos in the past, like buying Japanese canned coffee to get a Giovanni promo or buying Kraft cheese to get the WC stamp Dark Charmeleon.

I originally thought this Heinz card was a joke, but Heinz Japan actually posted Pikachu ketchup on their Instagram.

Do you folks think this could be a real promo?

Cracking the food market is TPC’s wettest dream, aside from looser gambling regulations.

I’m glad they decided not to go with that weird fake face card. It would have been neat to see a chonky pikachu with the ketchup bottle though

I would absolutely spend up to $7.50 for that promo card, that would be amazing!

We already got a Pikachu x Ketchup promo from 2015. Too bad I can’t afford it. :sob:

Oh man if that plate has indentations for the ketchup it would be a big hit. Super cute collab.
