Casio and Pokémon Release 30th‑Anniversary G‑SHOCK With July 1 Pre‑Orders

Priced at $270, the GA110PKM pairs collectible Pokémon artwork with G‑SHOCK durability, leaving regional release plans unresolved.

Overview

  • Casio confirmed the Pokémon × G‑SHOCK GA110PKM and set U.S. pre‑orders to begin Wednesday, July 1, with a retail price of $270.
  • Japan will use a purchase lottery for the watch and has a July 17 ship date listed, while Casio has not confirmed a U.S. ship date.
  • The watch band features 30 Pokémon including three region starter sets plus Pikachu, Eevee and Mew, and the package includes a Poké Ball–shaped storage case.
  • The GA110PKM keeps standard GA‑110 specs: shock and magnetic resistance, 200‑meter water resistance, a CR1220 battery with about two years’ life, and LED lighting.
  • Casio has not consistently labeled the model as a limited edition, which combined with select in‑store availability at G‑SHOCK SOHO and select jewelers could drive strong collector demand and secondary‑market activity.
