Pikachu has been the most recognizable mascot for the Pokemon franchise since it began in 1997, so it’s no surprise that the love for the electric-type monster continues to grow stronger. Fans have grown attached to the character since its early days of adventuring in the anime, which, interestingly enough, both Ash and Pikachu have concluded their story in the series finale of Pokemon Journeys. The electric mouse Pokemon is one of the characters that continue to grace various partnerships and collaborations with other brands.

Per the U-Treasure website, the store is selling a Pikachu Carat Solitaire Ring which features a diamond for ¥1,825,000 (or roughly $13,580). The store notes that buyers can engrave a maximum of 8 characters on the ring for personalization. The ring features a 1-carat diamond that sits between two Pikachus of the opposite sex. It can also be customized even further depending on the preference of material and size of the diamond.

Fans may remember that as recently as December 2022, U-Treasure had been releasing other Pokemon-inspired jewelry such as the Magikarp Pink Gold Necklaces. It’s not too far-fetched to see that other fan-favorite character-inspired jewelry such as this one would be produced by the Japanese store. In fact, this item joins the line of other Pokemon-inspired pieces bringing the grand total to over 70 different designs.

With Ash and Pikachu sharing over 25 years of adventures, one would dare consider that the mouse Pokemon has shown loyalty to its trainer for a lengthy period of time. Fans could even use that reasoning to put out the money to buy this particular engagement ring as a symbol of loyalty as well. And while other fans use their time to create their own Pokemon-inspired merchandise such as the fan who made their own Yamask earrings, having official and original licensed items may add more value to some collectors.

With the series now moving to its 9th Generation, expect new cute Pokemon to be introduced to the series. With that, the potential for other new characters to be highlighted as part of the designs continues to grow. Hopefully, more designs for engagement rings (and possibly wedding rings) come out as well in the future and utilize other characters that fans and gamers will grow to love.
