Hey Buddy Get ready —Razer and Pokémon are teaming up again, and a brand-new collab is dropping July 17. While the full reveal’s still under wraps, the teaser already has fans buzzing, and if previous drops are anything to go by, this is gonna be good.
So what’s the deal? Razer recently posted a short teaser video with both logos front and center, along with the line: “Are you ready for a new journey?” Not a ton of concrete info yet, but the vibes are strong and the hints are starting to roll in.
This isn’t the first time the two have partnered—far from it. In the past, we’ve seen some seriously cool Pokémon-themed Razer gear, like Pikachu earbuds that come in a Poké Ball case, keyboards, gaming mice, and mousepads. Basically, they’ve done cute and functional, and it worked. Fans loved it.

Razer’s also been doing these types of crossovers a lot lately—like the Squid Game collab that brought themed Orochi V2 mouse shells, cases, and more. So if you already own a Razer mouse, especially the Orochi V2, don’t be surprised if this new drop includes some collectible shells with Pokémon flair.
Now, here’s the catch: fans are really hoping this won’t be another China-exclusive. A few of Razer’s older Pokémon products (looking at you, Gengar headset) never made it outside that market. And while Razer hasn’t given a straight answer, they did post the teaser on their global Twitter account in English with a North American time zone for the reveal (July 17 at 8AM PT). That’s a pretty good sign that at least part of the collection could be available in the West.
So, what should we expect? Here’s what feels likely:
- New mouse shells for the Orochi V2
- Possibly a new keyboard or mousepad design
- Maybe updated earbuds or headphones with Pokémon themes
- Phone cases? Less likely, but not impossible
And while some fans are still crossing their fingers for that elusive Gengar headset to get a global release, the phrasing in the teaser (“a new journey”) suggests we’re probably getting fresh gear rather than re-releases.
Bottom line: the full reveal goes live on July 17 at 8AM PT, and if past drops are any indication, you’ll want to act fast—these kinds of collabs tend to sell out super quick.
So set your alarms, bookmark the store, and get ready to add some Pokémon flair to your gaming setup.
