Hi guys,

Couldn't help but overhear you guys talking about the Pokemon "Yowies". This may interest you! Looks like Japan is already ahead of the game. I've just returned from a 4 week visit to Japan (all over) and found these on my last week in Japan (last week). They cost about 180Yen (extremely cheap) and the toy is pretty good quality too.  They are available in Family Mart/Lawson stores which are ubiquitous across Japan. My sister bought a tray of them as she is Pokemon Society of UNSW's media director.


A Japanese company called Furuta makes them you can check them out here:

As far as I know, these eggs are only sold in Japan. Not much else I can tell you as everything on the box is in Japanese. All I know is that they're super cheap, great souvenirs and the chocolate tastes pretty good (it is not like American chocolate).

Pokemon Go got released quite late in Japan but I was lucky enough to still be there on the day of the launch. Everyone was on it.
