30 years after the releases of Pok\u00e9mon Red, Green, and Blue, travelers in Japan can ride on the Red, Green, and Blue Pok\u00e9mon Jets<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

As Pok\u00e9mon<\/strong> level up, their stats increase and they learn new attacks and techniques. However, their Type won\u2019t change unless they evolve into a different species. So, for example, while a weak Bulbasaur can become a stronger Bulbasaur, there\u2019s no way for it to become a Flying-type Bulbasaur.<\/p>\n

At least, there aren\u2019t any Flying Bulbasaurs within the Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> video games and anime. Here in the real world, though? We\u2019ve got flying Bulbasaurs, flying Squirtles, and a whole lot of other ordinarily non-airborne Pocket Monsters that\u2019ll be taking to the skies, thanks to ANA\/All Nippon Airways<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

ANA has unveiled the designs for three different Pok\u00e9mon Jets<\/strong>. Called Pok\u00e9mon Jet Red, Green, and Blue<\/strong>, their designations match the titles of the first three Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> video games for the Gameboy, and are meant as a salute to the Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> franchise\u2019s 30th anniversary, which it\u2019s celebrating this year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mirroring the three games\u2019 release order in Japan, the Pok\u00e9mon Jet Red will be the first to fly, and features all 10 Fire-type starter Pok\u00e9mon<\/strong>. Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, Chimchar, Tepig, Fennekin, Litten, Scorbunny, and Fuecoco are here, and so is Pombon, who won\u2019t be making its in-game debut until Pok\u00e9mon Winds and Waves<\/em> releases on the Switch 2 sometime next year.<\/p>\n

\u25bc Pikachu<\/strong>, of course, is also along for the ride on each of the Pok\u00e9mon Jets.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In addition to being represented in the plane\u2019s exterior graphics, all those Pok\u00e9-pals will be waiting inside too, in the forms of special cup and napkin designs for the in-flight drink service and illustrated seat headrest covers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Pok\u00e9mon Jet Red\u2019s first flight will be on July 29<\/strong>, on a route between Tokyo\u2019s Haneda Airport<\/strong> and Fukuoka Airport. Depending on exact date, the plane will also be flying between Haneda and New Chitose (Sapporo), Hakodate, Itami (Osaka), Takamatsu, Matsuyama, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Kagoshima, Naha, Miyako, Ishigaki, as well as between Itami and New Chitose, Naha, Miyako, and Ishigaki.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Pok\u00e9mon Jet Green<\/strong>, which will be starting its flights sometime after the Red jet, is for the Grass-type starters<\/strong>: Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, Turtwig, Snivy, Chespin, Rowlet, Grookey, Sprigatito, and Browt.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And finally, the Pok\u00e9mon Jet Blue<\/strong>, with Water-types<\/strong> Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup, Oshawott, Froakie, Popplio, Sobble, Quaxly, and Gecqua, will start carrying passengers in December.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

ANA also says that Pok\u00e9mon BGM music will be played inside the Pok\u00e9mon Jets<\/strong> (likely as a welcome aboard greeting, not constantly through the flight) and passengers will also receive some sort of special themed souvenir to take home<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Exact route information is yet to be announced for the Green and Blue planes, but they will flying domestically within Japan, and with all three Pok\u00e9mon Jets being different models of aircraft, they might also be headed to different airports from each other.<\/p>\n
