Apart from Ash Ketchum and Team Rocket, Brock and Misty are probably the two most recognizable characters from the
Pokemon series - mainly because of their tagalong roles in the Anime during the Kanto Region. In addition, they were the first two bosses in the first games on Game Boy and also in the remake for Nintendo Switch -
Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and
Pokemon: Let's Go, Eevee! and as such, they are now the first two who have apparel options available to your Trainer in
Pokemon Go.
This is just another move by Niantic connecting this Mobile game to the new successesful
Pokemon: Let's Go, Pikachu! considering the games have integration built into them. In addition to being able to transfer their favorite Pokemon into the Go Park in the game (which replaces this old school Safari Zone in Fuschia City),
Pokemon Go also has
Let's Go related Field Research Breakthroughs and the two share the rare unknown Pokemon conundrum, Meltan.
The official
Pokemon Go Twitter account had the following to say regarding the new outfit options. "In celebration of the arrival of #PokemonLetsGo, avatar items inspired by familiar Gym Leaders from the Kanto region are now available in the Style Shop. Do you know who these avatar items are inspired by?
The Gym Leader clothes are available where all other
Pokemon Go Trainer clothes can be found. If your Avatar is a female, you can purchase Misty's tank top for 200 coins, shorts for 200 coins, and sneakers for 150 coins. Meanwhile, if you're a guy and you want to sport Brock's outfit, you'll have to cough up 300 coins for his jacket, 250 for his trousers, and 150 for his climbing shoes. Brock's outfit equates to $6.50 and Misty's is $5. If you wish to buy both outfits - don't worry - you can change the sex of your character at any time.
