A new Pokemon and Razer collaboration is underway, which has introduced a new set of gaming peripherals and accessories themed upon Espeon and Umbreon. Pokemon fans can pick up everything from mousepads to headsets with special art featuring the popular pair of Eeveelutions.
A long time has come and gone since Eevee’s last new evolution was added to the franchise, but it hasn’t impacted the love fans have for the Pokemon. While it wasn’t one of the original starters and wasn’t heavily featured in the original TV anime, fans love the creature for its cuteness and the numerous versions it can evolve into. As a result, Eevee merchandise is popular and abundant, with this just being the latest example.
Razer Unveils Pokemon Umbreon and Espeon Gaming Accessories
Razer and Pokemon have now created a new set of gaming gear, including headphones, a keyboard, mouse, and mouse mat. Each item is purple, with scattered moons and stars to signify Espeon and Umbreon, who are also featured on each item. Fans of the Pokemon can pick up a tenkeyless Razer Onata V3 RGB keyboard featuring Umbreon and Eevee on the keyboard and the arm rest for $119.99, while a wired Razer Cobra RGB mouse will set buyers back $59.99. The Razer Gigantus V2 mouse mat Umbreon and Espeon design is available for $29.99, while the Razer Kraken V4 X wired gaming headset is $109.99. The Razer Kraken features images of the pair of Pokemon on the external parts, as well as inside the ear cups. The full collection can be viewed on Razer’s website.

At the time of writing, these Pokemon items are already out of stock online. However, the website notes that there is still stock available in-person in several RazerStores. Interested fans should take a look and see if their local stores have them available via the website. If they’re not available at all, fans can sign up on a waitlist on the official Razer website to be notified when stock is available again. Judging by past releases, chances are these items will be restocked, but fans should still try and pick them up as soon as possible, as they won’t last forever.
This isn’t the first time that Razer and Pokemon have teamed up, with two other variants of the same items available with Pokemon designs. One Pokemon themed collection features the original starters from Gen 1, namely Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, plus Pikachu, with a yellow and black color combination reminiscent of the Electric-type Pokemon. One of the most popular collections is Gengar’s, though, which features the mischievous Ghost-type Pokemon all by itself. The Gengar collection is unique, as the Gengar Kraken Kitty headset replaces the usual cat ears with Gengar’s head spikes.
Razer and Pokemon seem to have had a mutually beneficial partnership from these creations, as they generally sell out quickly. New designs have been gradually introduced over time, so fans of the franchise who don’t see their favorites on the list may want to wait and see if that changes. Those who prefer games and media that aren’t connected to Pokemon may also want to take a look, as Razer has a number of partnerships with games like Minecraft, Zenless Zone Zero, and Wuthering Waves, as well as the Sanrio franchise and individuals like eSports League of Legends pro Faker.
