Summary

Secretlab and The Pokémon Company International have expanded their ongoing Pokémon collaboration with a new SKINS Pixel Art Collection for the TITAN Evo chair

The lineup spans Grass, Fire, and Water-Type editions, each anchored by one of the original Kanto first-partner evolutions

Every design leans on nostalgia for the earliest Pokémon journey, rendered in a pixel-art style with gradient backrests

Secretlab and Pokémon are reaching back to where it all began, expanding their Pokémon Collection with the SKINS Pokémon Pixel Art Collection for the TITAN Evo. The new range is built around the choice every Trainer remembers, framing its Grass, Fire, and Water-Type designs around the three first-partner evolutions that opened the original Kanto adventure.

The heart of the collection is that starting-line nostalgia. Secretlab frames the drop as a return to the moment a player first pulls on the Trainer cap, and it leans into the type triangle that has defined Pokémon since the beginning: Grass, Fire, and Water. Each of the three SKINS is headlined by one of the most recognizable first-partner evolutions, Venusaur, Charizard, or Blastoise, casting the familiar Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle lines as the anchors of the design.

The Kanto framing runs deeper than the headliners. The Grass-Type edition gathers a cast that includes Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Venusaur, Oddish, and Bellsprout among the greenery, while the Fire-Type edition rounds up Charmander, Charmeleon, Arcanine, Rapidash, and Flareon for its scorching company. The Water-Type edition dives from ponds and lakes to the open sea to surface Squirtle, Wartortle, Blastoise, Poliwag, Slowpoke, Goldeen, Gyarados, Lapras, and Vaporeon. Together they read as a roll call from the first generation, the roster that launched the franchise when Pokémon debuted in 1996.

That heritage is carried by the design work rather than stated outright. Each SKIN renders its Pokémon in a pixel-art style, a deliberate nod to the era those creatures first appeared in, and finishes the backrest in a green, orange, or blue gradient that fades from light to dark for added depth. The collection also builds on an established partnership; Secretlab positions it as a direct expansion of its existing Pokémon Collection rather than a standalone one-off, extending a relationship the two have already been developing.

As with the wider SKINS system, the appeal is in the swap. Each design slips over a TITAN Evo for an indistinguishable fit, delivers 360-degree protection from dirt and stains, is machine-washable, and can be applied in around three minutes, letting a Trainer change allegiance from Grass to Fire to Water whenever the mood strikes.

The Secretlab SKINS Pokémon Pixel Art Collection joins the wider Secretlab Pokémon Collection, viewable online.
