There&#8217;s even an official name that aptly ties the two together \u2014 the Thunderbolt Project.<\/p>\n<p>After flash pop-ups in Japan, Shanghai and Beijing, the Fragment x Pok\u00e9mon Thunderbolt Project is striking Taipei again via retailer INVINCIBLE. This time, with exciting teammates alongside the iconic Pikachu: the charmingly adorable Snorlax and Gen 1 starters Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle. Per the collaborative project&#8217;s all-black scheme, all the Pok\u00e9mon plush charms have been drained of color but are now emblazoned with Fragment&#8217;s doubled thunderbolts.<\/p>\n<p>This Thunderbolt Project also offers a thick hoodie and tee in black, both embroidered with gray-scale Fragment thunderbolts on the front. The back sees a print of the five Pokemon silhouettes sat atop the bracketed phrase &#8220;THUNDERBOLT PROJECT BY FRGMT &amp; POK\u00c9MON&#8221;. INVINCIBLE joins in on the branding galore, stamping its logo just under the phrase.<\/p>\n<p>This latest Thunderbolt Project will make an appearance in INVINCIBLE&#8217;s stores from 25 Nov to 11 Dec. Each mascot charm (Pikachu, Snorlax, Charmander, Bulbasaur, Squirtle) retails for NT$1,280 (~US$41).&nbsp; The hoodie retails for NT$4,980 (~US$160) while the S\/S Tee is priced at NT$2,200 (~US$71). Whether an online release will follow has yet to be announced.<\/p>\n<p>In other streetwear news, <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2022\/11\/21\/champion-n-hoolywood-new-weave-release-date-fall-2022\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Champion and N.HOOLYWOOD have a new weave up their sleeves<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"\u201c300&quot;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fragment x Pok\u00e9mon Thunderbolt Project strikes Taiwan again, with INVINCIBLE acting as the lightning rod. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":63464,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,21,18,19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63351","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brands","category-calendar","category-latest-news","category-releases"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63351"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=63351"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63351\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":100337,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63351\/revisions\/100337"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/63464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=63351"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=63351"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=63351"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
