    All Nippon Airways (ANA) and The Pokémon Company today unveiled the aircraft designs for “Pokémon Jet Red” and “Pokémon Jet Green,” the first two aircraft in a special three-plane collaboration celebrating Pokémon’s 30th anniversary.

    “Pokémon Jet Red” will operate on domestic routes in Japan and is scheduled to enter service at the end of July 2026. The design features Pikachu alongside fire-type Pokémon that players choose as their first partner at the beginning of their adventures. “Pokémon Jet Green” will serve international routes, with its launch date to be announced at a later time. Its design features Pikachu alongside grass-type Pokémon chosen as the first partner Pokémon throughout the video game series.

    Exclusive In-Flight Amenities
    The immersive Pokémon experience will begin the moment passengers step on board, bringing the world of Pokémon to the skies with specially themed cabins featuring original artwork and ANA-designed amenities, including:

    • Commemorative boarding stickers: Passengers will receive an exclusive promotional sticker featuring a special commemorative design. The design details will be revealed at a later date. Please note that distribution is limited to one sticker per passenger per flight, and availability may vary depending on route and operational conditions.
    • Headrest covers: Vibrant designs showcasing the Pokémon featured on the aircraft exteriors, available on domestic flights in Economy Class and international flights in Economy and Premium Economy. Please note that headrest covers are for in-flight use only and cannot be removed from the seat.
    • Limited-edition cups: Commemorative cups featuring Pokémon characters and the 30th anniversary logo, available on domestic flights in Economy Class and international flights in Economy and Premium Economy.
    • Cocktail napkins: Custom napkins adorned with the collaboration and 30th anniversary logos, available on international flights in Economy, Premium Economy, and Business.

    Details regarding future events and flight schedules will be announced on the ANA website and dedicated project pages. Fans can also look forward to upcoming announcements regarding the design of the third aircraft in the series, “Pokémon Jet Blue.”

    The collaboration honors the longstanding relationship between ANA and Pokémon, which began following the release of the original Pokémon Red Version and Pokémon Green Version games, released in Japan.

    In partnership with Pokémon, the ANA Group remains committed to creating meaningful travel experiences that inspire connection, discovery and bring the joy of travel to passengers across the world.
