Pokémon Pop-Tarts are back for the first time in 25 years, and I need one right now

Target has announced a partnership with Pokémon for a new line of things that will be available soon, including the return of Pokémon Pop-Tarts for the first time in 25 years.

These are Pop-Tarts in the frosted vanilla cupcake flavor, with the iconic starter Pokémon Pikachu, Charmander, and Bulbasaur on the packaging. The Pop-Tarts are dusted with sprinkles that represent the hues of those three species. They look fantastic.

The 12-pack of Pop-Tarts will cost $4 when it hits stores on May 2 and online on May 3. Kellogg’s first offered Pokémon-themed Pop-Tarts in the early 2000s as a promotion for the Pokémon 2000 film. Following that, only a limited number of Pokémon Pop-Tarts were released in conjunction with other products.

This year marks Pokemon’s 30th anniversary, and the collaboration between the two companies includes over 100 goods that are only available at Target. Other things include various Pokemon clothes, kickballs, scents, detangling hair brushes, and water bottles.

Not everything goes on sale at once; the first wave of items, including Pop-Tarts, will be available in shops on May 2 and online the following day, with a second round of Pokemon things available on June 6. Visit Target’s website to see the 100+ Pokemon items on sale and to find out when they go on sale. Pokémon goods are well-known for their popularity, so if you see something you like, you’ll most likely want to buy it right immediately.

Pokémon Champions, a fighting game, was released on April 8 for the Nintendo Switch. The free game allows you to participate in short online battles against other Pokemon fans.
