The color palette is black and white, adorned in subtle graphics that are in the same hue. The iconic characters include [Pikachu and Eevee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pokmon-30th-anniversary) -- they decorate the [fragment design logo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackpink-x-fragment-design) as well. The plush Pikachu toy is small so that it can function as a keychain, which is also entirely black.
