The official website for “Pokemon Shirts” dropped the news that they would be offering these official Zoom backgrounds to fans of the franchise free of cost, giving fans a new way to express their love of the franchise that made Pikachu and Ash Ketchum house hold names over the years!

In the latest season of Pokemon, Ash and Pikachu haven’t been only encountering old pocket monsters that we’ve all come to know and love over the years, but also running into new creatures from the Galar Region. The region, which was introduced in the Nintendo Switch exclusive video game of Pokemon Sword And Shield, has brought to life a number of new creatures and features to the world of Pokemon trainers. Dynamaxing, Wild Areas, and variations of classic pocket monsters have all appeared within this new landscape that both Ash, and his new friend Go, have encountered on their recent journeys.

With the newest season arriving on Netflix this summer with a new English dub, it’s clear that Pokemon fans have a new found excitement for the series and these Zoom backgrounds would go a long way to showing their love of the series!
