Japan: Pikachu and Eeevee

On 27th October I got two postcards: one from Japan and one from Germany.

The card from Japan shows Pikachu and Eevee. Eevee is a Pokemon of the first generation and is known for having the most evolutions of all Pokemon. Already in the first generation it was possible to evolve Eevee into Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon, Espeon and Umbreon followed in the second generation, Glaceon and Leafeon in the fourth and Sylveon in the sixth. With the games Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee Eevee was positioned as second mascot of the franchise beside Pikachu, although it was already popular before that.

Another Pokemon stamp (issued 07-07-2021) was used here. This one shows the backside of a Japanese trading card. Here in Germany the backside however looks slightly different.



Thank You very much Yuka!
