A Pokemon/Tamagotchi collaboration has been confirmed

Pokemon Tamagotchi

So much nostalgia!

Remember Tamagotchis? They were so fun.

Looking after it was probably the most responsibility you had as a child, and the guilt of letting one die would be somewhat overwhelming to be honest…

Still, they were really cool to play with nonetheless.

But the most fun game of our childhood was definitely Pokemon.

Nothing could beat it. You could play the game on whatever console you had for hours on end, and chances are if you weren’t playing the actual game, you were collecting the cards…

Now imagine you could combine the two worlds… Well, you can!

According to tech website Engadget, Pokémon’s Eevee is coming to the world of Tamagotchi.

Eevee is a normal-type Pokemon, who is definitely cute enough to appear in a Tamagotchi.

This one!

This isn’t the first time that the two worlds have crossed over either.

In 1998′ we saw “Pocket Pikachu”, but this new Tamagotchi Nano will let you raise and care for an Eevee as it evolves into one of its eight evolutions.

It looks like there will be a few variations, including a Team Rocket Eevee and even a Ditto Eevee, while the Tamagotchi shells are available in Eevee-appropriate brown and a pink “Colorful Friends” version.

The item will be released in Japan on 21 January, and we really hope it makes its way to Ireland soon after.
