Pokémon Center Sells Glass Evolution Stones at $89.99 Each

Pokémon Center is selling faceted glass Fire, Water, and Thunder Stone replicas for $89.99 apiece, with display cases and certificates included.

Pokémon Center is selling glass replicas of the Fire Stone, Water Stone, and Thunder Stone for $89.99 each, under its Pokémon Trainer Essentials collection.

Each stone is solid, faceted glass crystal with an elemental icon suspended inside: a flame in the Fire Stone, a barrage of bubbles in the Water Stone, and a bolt of lightning in the Thunder Stone. The stone arrives nested in a protective display case with a clear lid to keep dust off.

The box also holds a certificate of authenticity and an adhesive plaque with the stone's name and its in-game description, matching the text printed on the display box. The Fire Stone's reads: "A peculiar stone that can make certain species of Pokémon evolve. It has a fiery orange heart." All three are available to order on the Pokémon Center website.

Because the stones are real glass, Pokémon Center said they are adult display pieces rather than toys and should be kept out of children's reach.

The math is simple: a full set costs $269.97 before tax and shipping. That is a notable sum for objects that, in the games, are ordinary inventory items a Trainer typically uses up to trigger a single evolution. What the buyer gets is mass, a certificate, and official text, not new content.

The adhesive plaque is the telling detail. It can go on the case, a shelf, or a wall, which points to a product designed for building a display, one stone at a time or all three at once.
