The Pokemon and Original Stitch custom shirt collaboration is coming to an end, and fans don't have long to act to buy shirts before it's over. The news may come as a surprise to fans, as the Pokemon collaboration has been quite popular in the past.Pokemon and Original Stitch's shirts premiered back in 2019, and since then, the companies have been gradually adding more Pokemon and designs for fans to pick from. The collaboration has let fans build a shirt by choosing the materials and custom detailing like Pokeball buttons, with fabrics available for all of the original 151 Pokemon, as well as many more from later games. In addition to shirts, the company has also offered things like kitchen aprons and masks as time went on, often utilizing fabric scraps from other creations. While the products weren't cheap, it was a unique opportunity for fans to show their love for one or more favorite Pokemon with a shirt all their own.RELATED: Pokemon Themed Dress Shirts RevealedUnfortunately, that's all coming to an end, as the collaboration between The Pokemon Company and Original Stitch is being discontinued. However, this isn't due to a problem between the two entities. Instead, Original Stitch itself is shutting down, which means all the products the company has produced will no longer be sold. Fans have until June 11, 2023 at 7:00 pm PST to place an order with the company. However, making a purchase sooner than later is advised, as popular Pokemon fabrics will likely sell out in short order. At the time of this writing, the website is swamped with enough visitors that it can't be accessed.

Pokemon fans may not be the only ones sad to see the company go, as it's offered other collections featuring various pop culture icons, like The Beatles and the long-running anime One Piece.

Fans who do manage to acquire a shirt should be aware that the service will offer a two-week replacement or repair period following the closure of the store. After this point, the company will be completely closed. There have been myriads of Pokemon products made available over the years, including some higher-end options for older fans or those looking for refined choices. However, being able to choose a custom design is an unusual opportunity, and with most fans having a favorite Pokemon or two from the generations they've played, it's no surprise that the Pokemon shirt service was a success during the last several years.
