Samsung Launches Galaxy Buds 2 Pokemon Packs, But You Can’t Have Them – SlashGear

Even though over 25 years have passed since the launch of the first Pokemon game, these little pocket monsters continue to be very relevant. It’s no wonder that we’re seeing them everywhere; from ties and cufflinks, to earbuds and phone cases. Samsung itself has released a fair amount of Pokemon merch, too.

We’ve seen an official Galaxy Z Flip 3 fully modeled after Pokemon and packed with goodies. Owners of a Z Flip 4 can indulge in an official Pokemon-themed case. There have also been limited-edition cases for the Buds 2 and Buds 2 Pro in the past, shaped like a Poke Ball, which were a huge hit. Moreover, Samsung has released some Galaxy Watch 5 watch straps worldwide. That gives us a little hope that we might be able to get these cases outside of South Korea one day, too.

If you’re not planning a trip to South Korea, the good news is that there are plenty of unofficial Buds cases that are shaped like Pokemon (and a lot of other things). Unfortunately, as they’re not made by Samsung itself, there’s no telling if they’ll work as well as the real deal, so shop carefully. Hopefully, these buds will see release outside of South Korea, and worldwide fans should be able to buy these as well.
