Though today's Millennials fell in love with the Pokemon franchise while they were kids, they've fallen in love with one another as adults, and the Pokemoan toys are capitalizing on those dual loves. The naughty toys, created by aptly named company 'Geeky Sex Toys,' are various bedroom pieces designed to resemble Pokemon characters.
There are four Pokemoan toys: Bulby, Charmy, Squirty and Piky, inspired by Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, and Pikachu, respectively. All made using skin-safe silicon, the Pokemoan toys each offer a unique sexual power, just like the Pokemon that offer unique physical powers.
According to the owners behind Geeky Sex Toys, a Pokemon-themed series was always an idea they had, but Pokemon's resurgence thanks to the Pokemon Go game put Pokemoan on the fast track. So while Pokemon Go lets kids enjoy Pokemon outdoors, the Pokemoan toys can let adults enjoy the franchise indoors.
