Pokémon Bath & Beauty Collection
Korean beauty brand Forment created a Pokémon-themed bath and fragrance collection featuring squeezable Ditto soaps, Ditto body wash and three Pikachu perfumes. The playful character designs and imagined scents such as “Cotton Baby” gave fandom media an amusing reason to cover an otherwise ordinary product launch.
Why it worked: It hijacked a massive IP with a tactile twist—squeezable Ditto soap—and answered a curiosity gap: “what does Ditto smell like?”
The lesson: Consider pitching a familiar icon reimagined through unexpected senses—taste, touch, or scent—and open preorders to create an immediate coverage hook.
