Wish to take on the big leagues one day? Samsung has announced a Pokémon Edition Galaxy Z Flip 3 smartphone to bring with you through tufts of tall grass, the mart, and more.
Since this sidekick is a foldable phone, you can easily fit it in your pocket as you battle the day. But wait, there’s more; the Pokémon Edition comes equipped with an assortment of Pokémon-themed accessories, including a Poké Ball-like box for the phone, a clear Pikachu case, a second Pikachu cover, a Pokédex-inspired pouch with a lanyard strap, Pokémon stickers, a Pikachu tail keychain, and a Poké Ball pop socket.
As GSMArena points out, the handset itself just appears to be a regular Galaxy Z Flip 3 with a black finish. No matter, as its software makes it the very best that no one ever was thanks to customizable Pokémon themes, ringtones, and wallpapers. This is a brilliant touch, as Samsung prides its flip phones on their allowance for self-expression.
A critical hit on the rest of the world is the fact that the special edition, which Samsung touts as “the greatest collaboration ever,” will only be released in South Korea.
The evolved pocket monster will be available on April 25.
