Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Kotobukiya Statues

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the series’ Generation 9 games, were both released in 2022. They take place in a Spanish-inspired region called Paldea, and the new Kotobukiya statues are based on the default playable characters, Juliana and Florian. Each is accompanied by a starter Pokémon and they are wearing their school’s summer uniforms. In the games, variations on this look exist for all four seasons.

Both statues feature a classic Poké Ball logo shape with the game’s signature color plus starter Pokémon as removable proximity pieces, allowing for a range of display options. The statue designs are modeled after the popular illustrations of Hitoshi Ariga.

Juliana comes with Sprigatito, the Grass starter of the region. Her outfit reflects that she’s a student at the Naranja Academy — complete with a Pokemon Trainer’s trusty backpack and the bright colors of her school. Join Juliana on her Treasure Hunt when you pre-order the Juliana with Sprigatito Statue by Kotobukiya.

 

Florian comes with Fuecoco, the Fire starter of the region. His outfit reflects that he’s a student at the Uva Academy — complete with a Pokemon Trainer’s trusty backpack and the cool colors of his school. Join Florian on his Treasure Hunt when you pre-order the Florian with Fuecoco Statue by Kotobukiya.
