Instead of plopping the somen noodles on a plate, they’re placed in a sort of water slide with continuously flowing water.
Nagashi somen can be done with a network of sliced-in-half bamboo poles, but Japanese toymaker Takara Tomy Arts has now made a motorized version featuring Rayquaza and a handful of other big-name Pokémon species.
Befitting its status as a Legendary Pokémon, Rayquaza has a lot of cool powers.
So to help keep things organized, Takara Tomy Arts recommends attaching the Pikachu and other Pokémon markers to the slide at positions to designate the OK-to-grab area.
