Skinnydip London, the design studio renowned for its cute phone cases, has launched its biggest collection ever: a collaboration with The Pokémon Company.

The star(mie) of the show here is the phone case lineup. As well as a handful of designs featuring groups of Gen I Pokémon, the collection also offers a unique case for each of the original 151. The most popular options (Starters, Pikachu, Eevee etc.) have a variety of options including MagSafe and Holo cases, but every Pokémon is available in the standard Shock Case design so you can show your love for your favourite, regardless of its Pokédex number.

These standard cases are available from the Skinnydip website for £24, while the MagSafe and Holo options will set you back £28 (or your regional equivalent). The cases are available for all iPhones from the XR/11 to the 15 Pro Max and for a range of Android and Google devices.

Here's a look at some of the designs on offer, but you can head over to the Skinnydip website to see what your favourite 'mon's design looks like.

This Skinnydip X Pokémon collaboration isn't just limited to phone cases either. The collection also includes a range of clothing, tote bags, card holders, AirPods cases and many more, all adorned with some familiar Gen I faces. We've added some of our favourite pieces below but, again, the collection is massive so you should head over to Skinnydip to see everything on offer.

Pretty sweet, no? As with most Pokémon collections, we can see some of these items selling out fast, so be sure to get in there early if you have a particular prized Pokémon that you want adorning the back of your phone.

What's your favourite piece in the new Skinnydip collection? Will you be picking any of it up? Let us know in the comments.

The multi-pokemon one, the Pikachu one, the Mew one, the Charizard one, the Gloom one... 😍

Pretty cool that they have unique cases for each of the original 151 and the ones shown here look good, but personally I might slightly prefer the ones with multiple Pokémon on them!

The more varied designs are better, as I found the solo designs to be a touch uninspired, which is a shame because I really wanted to love the Porygon one. They don't do that in iPhone XS Max anyway, so... boo.

Well the ones I want are either iPhone only or two models behind my current phone. Sadness.

And of course they don't support Pixel 8 Pro, but support the previous pixel phones 😥.

As expected, Krabby is iPhone-only.

They have about 80 Pokemon only in the cases and only for iPhone, Galaxy and Google phones and a quite basic repeated pattern design. Disappointing!

These are super cool, I'd buy one but there are a ton of Pokemon randomly missing from the Android selection of phone cases which is super lame.

Man...why do Iphones get the good cases & leave out Android phones...?

I remember when SEGA released the Megadrive/Genesis, Saturn, & Dreamcast theme phone cases for Iphones back in 2015. I think there was the Gamegear one too.

Would be REALLY nice if Bcov could get on in the collab. Imagine having Pokemon-themed leather wallet-cases for a Android phone. Doubt it would happen.
