For reasons unknown to everyone, the Pokemon site updated a few hours late.

Bento

Every summer, 7-11 brings out a special bento box that usually ties in to the summer movie. This year, I don’t see the tie in, but that doesn’t make the bento box set any less cute! This year’s bento box features a Pikachu face design and comes with a handkerchief, a set of chopsticks, and an adorable card.

Pre-order period for this lunch box runs from June 22nd until July 29th, with pick-up running from July 18th until August 2nd.

Kuji

In honor of the Hiroshima Center grand opening, a small raffle will be held in all Pokemon Centers in Japan from July 25th until August 31st. During that time period, customers will get 1 raffle try per 4,000 yen spent at the Pokemon Center, with the two main prices being towels (A prize) and clearfiles (B prize).
