ColourPop Cosmetics’ latest pop culture crossover is Pokémon, and it’ll hard to resist the urge to catch ‘em all. The cosmetic brand previously had Twilight, Sailor Moon, Star Wars, and Disney collections, among others, so a Pokémon collab is a natural evolution.

The Pokémon collection includes three pH color-changing lip balms:

  • Thunderbolt, a sheer gold inspired by Pikachu ($12)
  • Sing, a sheer pink inspired by Jigglypuff ($12)
  • Transform, a sheer lavender inspired by Ditto ($12)

There are also three cream blushes available:

  • Electroball, a warm red inspired by Pikachu ($14)
  • Metronome, a pink inspired by Clefairy ($14)
  • Hyponisis, a rich violet inspired by Gengar ($14)

Additionally, there’s a three pack of Eeveelution-inspired lip glosses, which includes gold, coral, and blue shades, and is available for $27.

The collection also has a 24-shade eyeshadow palette for $30 that draws from the Kanto region with some naming inspirations from the anime (we see you jelly donuts!). If you don’t want the full palette, there are also three individual Super Shock shadows, each drawing from a different Kanto starter and their big moves:

And of course, no Pokémon-inspired set would be complete without a Poké Ball. In this case, it’s a berry-flavored lip mask ($12) in the shape of a Poké Ball shapred jar.

If you’re having a hard time choosing what to get, the full Pokémon ColourPop collection is available for $159.

The Pokémon collection is live now, and will hit Ulta stores on May 12.
