Physical Pokémon Center stores will start offering the lineup on January 13, the same day as the 2,750-yen Tatsugiri sushi set and latte art drinks join the menu at the Pokémon Cafe.
Tatsugiri are Dragon/Water-type Pokémon, and the species’ Japanese name Sharitatsu, is literally a combination of the Japanese words shari (vinegared sushi rice) and tatsu (dragon).
The Pokémon Cafe is also adding Tatsugiri to its selectable latte art choices for caffe latte, caffe mocha, and caramel latte orders.
However, the Pokémon Cafe’s new Tatsugiri sushi set doesn’t use nigiri-style sushi, but rather oshizushi, sometimes also called hakozushi, in which the rice and toppings are pressed flat using a board or box.
