Other Merch

Pokemon merch is far from being limited to plushies and figures. Gigalith line got a few other various items that we will see here.


Game Dot Charms 


This charm collection was based on the in-game miniatures sprites. Every gen 5 Pokemon got one (and Pikachu, Charizard and the Eeveelutions). These ones were only sold in Japan Pokemon Centers in Sepetember 2012, for a limited time and in a limited quantity. They are usable with a 3.5mm earphone jack, but the charm can also be removed and attached elsewhere. A password was written in the inner packaging of each charm, allowing you to download a smartphone wallpaper of the dot sprite you bought. 


Pokemon Center Metal Charms





These metal charms were sold at Japan Pokemon Centers in February 2012, for a limited time and in a limited quantity. There are several series like this and almost every Pokemon has its charm.


Pan stickers


Pokemon Pan (litteraly Pokemon Bread) is a snack found in 7-11 stores in Japan, produced by Daiichi Pan. The packs come with random foil-wrapped stickers called "Pan Stickers" in the collector community. Almost every Pokemon got one, some even in totally new poses. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a picture for Boldore. 

Boldore Stamp Retsuden Black and White series #4




This ink stamper was sold in May 2012 at Pokemon Centers and a few toy stores in Japan, for a very limited time. it came in a sealed wrapper and you couldn't know which one of the series of 18 was going to be inside. Approximately 1.5''.



Pencils




These pencils were only sold at Pokemon Centers and a few toy stores in Japan, for a limited time and a limited quantity. They could be used to play a popular Japanese game calles "Gatchen". HP and damage points are written on them.


Tissues




I couldn't find any information about these. I saw another mini tissue pack with Unova Pokemon and it was a pack of 20 that could be won at a lottery, so it may also be the case for these, but nothing is sure. 


AEON Badges

I couldn't find pictures of them. Every Unova Pokemon has one.  They came with a QR code that could be scanned and added to the Pokedex Pro app. 


Other


Here are two items that don't have Gigalith as the main Pokemon, but it still appears.

- Handkerchief (February 2011, Pokemon Center)
- Memo Pad ( November 2011, Pokemon Center)



And this is very minor, but Roggenrola appeard on official card sleeves.
