It comes with four different eye stickers, so you can give it a handful of different expressions, too. It&#8217;s pretty adorable, but it&#8217;s only been announced for Japan so far.<\/p>\n<p>Launching in August 2023, the model will cost around 715 yen, which is around $5.39 USD \/ \u00a34.41, so it&#8217;s not expensive at all. That&#8217;s without shipping or the fact that you might want to buy like, 20 of them to build multiple Slowpoke circles.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"object object-tweet\"><!-- cache: oembed\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/pokejungle\/statuses\/1638394925728567296 @ 2023-03-22T17:37:29+00:00 --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p><span lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Additional photos <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JNp1yoe5ji\">pic.twitter.com\/JNp1yoe5ji<\/a><\/span>\u2014 Pok\u00e9Jungle: Gen IX (@pokejungle) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pokejungle\/status\/1638394925728567296?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 22, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Slowpoke is a beloved Pok\u00e9mon known for its dopey, lazy demeanour and its lovely pink colouring.
