I love Pokémon. I'm a 36-year-old man and not afraid to say that out loud. I would happily go upstairs and play Pokopia all day and then spend the next day telling my long-suffering girlfriend about it. But would I spend $3,000 on a gold necklace of Ditto for her to wear, knowing how forgetful we both are? No... no, I don't think I would.
Still, I've got to admit, they look incredible. Yes, an 18K gold Snorlax that costs over $6,000 is something I probably won't ever buy, but luckily for me, there are sterling silver versions that are gold-plated, which are much more affordable!
So what have we got in the collection then? Well, as I discovered in Famitsu, there are 5 different designs available from U-Treasure, with two Pikachu variants, a Ditto, a Magikarp, and a Snorlax. One of the Pika variants is holding a diamond, while the other is sitting on a Poké Ball with a diamond at its center. All of the designs come with a 30th Anniversary logo back charm, and you can check out the pictures of them all in the gallery below.
