Casios First Full-Size Pokemon G-Shock Watch Leaked Ahead of 30th-Anniversary Release

A new Instagram post from user @geesgshock has put Casio’s upcoming G‑Shock Pokémon collaboration on the radar. The image, shared on Saturday, reveals a translucent‑resin case accented in blue, red and green, with a Poké Ball‑styled sub‑dial and a yellow Pikachu silhouette on the face. The watch, identified as model GA‑110PKM‑7A, is expected to hit shelves in time for Pokémon’s 30th anniversary.

The design echoes the original Game Boy Pokémon titles—Red, Green and Blue—released in Japan in 1996 and later renamed for global markets. This nod to the franchise’s heritage adds a layer of nostalgia to what could be Casio’s most ambitious Pokémon partnership yet.

Casio and Pokémon first crossed paths in 2019 with the Baby‑G line, a series of compact watches that celebrated the Baby‑G series’ 25th anniversary. Those models drew inspiration from first‑generation Pokémon like Pikachu, Gyarados, Charmander and Starmie, and later added pink and black variants. Each Baby‑G watch arrived in a commemorative Poké Ball‑shaped box.

GA‑110PKM‑7A marks a shift from the Baby‑G line’s small form factor. As a standard‑size G‑Shock, the watch is likely to feature the brand’s signature digital or analog‑digital display, chronograph, 200‑metre water resistance and shock‑resistant case. While the leaked photo shows only the case and dial, industry analysts expect the watch to carry the usual G‑Shock functionality.

Neither Casio nor The Pokémon Company has issued an official statement, and the Instagram post remains the sole publicly available evidence. Notebookcheck reports that the image points to GA‑110PKM‑7A as the first full‑size G‑Shock collaboration with Pokémon.

Packaging details are still unknown. Past Baby‑G releases were boxed in elaborate Poké Ball‑themed cases, so it is likely that the new watch will receive a similar treatment. The model is expected to sell worldwide, but no launch date has been announced.

Price expectations draw from previous collaborations. Baby‑G Pokémon watches launched under £150, and the new G‑Shock model is anticipated to follow a comparable price point, though the exact retail price remains unconfirmed.

The leak arrives amid milestone celebrations for both brands. Casio’s G‑Shock line has long been synonymous with rugged, sports‑watch design, while Pokémon continues to be the world’s highest‑grossing media franchise. Introducing a full‑size G‑Shock collaboration expands the partnership beyond the Baby‑G niche and could attract collectors who favor larger, traditional G‑Shock models.

Industry observers note that the move could signal Casio’s intent to tap into the Pokémon fan base on a larger scale, aligning with the franchise’s 30th‑anniversary celebrations that include new games, animated series and merchandise.

At this stage, the only confirmed facts are the existence of the leaked image, the model number GA‑110PKM‑7A, and its status as a full‑size G‑Shock watch. No release date, price, or official confirmation has been issued by either company.

Both Casio and Pokémon have yet to respond to inquiries. Fans and collectors will need to await an official announcement to confirm specifications, pricing and availability.

The design’s reference to the original Game Boy titles suggests a deliberate homage to Pokémon’s roots. If released as planned, GA‑110PKM‑7A would become the first full‑size G‑Shock watch bearing Pokémon branding, adding a new chapter to the long‑standing collaboration between the two companies.

For now, the watch remains a leaked concept. The next step for Casio and Pokémon will be to confirm the model’s specifications, pricing and release schedule.
