Bathing with Pokémon? Healing species’ powers tapped for Pokémon Recovery public baths in Japan

Luckily, Raku Spa hasn’t let that important fact slip its mind, and now the popular chain of public baths is bringing Pokémon-themed baths to its facilities.

The Pokémon Recovery Baths, as Raku Spa is calling them, will debut on March 8, with species creating a special bath for a few days before handing off the figurative baton to the next.

Serving as Raku Spa’s Poké-muses are eight different species who can use recovery skills within the video and card games.
