Description:
A Pokmon themed charging case for your Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 went up on the South Korean tech giant's online store.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Samsung has created a Pokmon themed case for the Galaxy Buds 2 wireless earbuds. The case takes on the appearance of a small Pok Ball that acts as a shell wrapped around the regular Galaxy Buds 2 charging case.

A special bundle is available on the South Korean tech giant's online store (thanks, Gizmodo ) that includes a Pok Ball charging case, a pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 wireless earbuds, and a selection of Pokmon stickers featuring
a whole bunch of Gen 1 Pokmon like Pikachu, Lapras, Gengar and more.

Naturally, this adds a fair bit of bulk to the charging case itself, and the rounded shape of the Pok Ball will likely create a very noticeable bump when placed in your pocket. But if you're a Pokmon fan who's frequently out and about playing Pokmon Go , we can't think of a better accessory. Especially if you're never without your music while outside. A most elusive accessory

Good luck getting your hands on this nifty Pok Ball accessory, though. Currently, it's only available on Samsung's South Korean store for 134,000
won (around $109 / 89 / AU$149). As mentioned, the bundle includes the case, the buds, and a selection of stickers.

Unfortunately, the case can't be bought separately at a cheaper price, which is a shame, considering that the case is also compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live and Galaxy Buds Pro . As a result, first time Galaxy Buds buyers (or buyers looking for a replacement pair) are getting the most bang for their buck from this Pok Ball case bundle.

At the time of writing, however, the bundle looks to be already out of stock. No doubt the Pok Ball case was in high demand among South Korean Pokmon fans. At this point, we can only hope the bundle finds its way to the west so
Pokmon lovers worldwide have a chance to purchase this admittedly cool accessory set.

We'd love that, especially as Pokmon as a franchise is firing on all
cylinders this year. Not only does Pokmon Go prove to be immensely popular, but Pokmon Legends Arceus , released on Nintendo Switch in January, provided the franchise with a much-needed breath of fresh air with a semi-open-world, exploration-based format.

Additionally, the next entries in the mainline series, Pokmon Scarlet and Violet , are currently slated for release sometime in late 2022. These will bring a Spanish-inspired setting and the ninth generation of Pokmon to the franchise, and we're certainly looking forward to playing them for ourselves.
