Life-sized motorbike based on Koraidon produced

The Pokemon Company has produced life-sized Koraidon motorbike in collaboration with Honda. Starting today at the Honda Welcome Plaza Aoyama in Tokyo, fans can see a look at the concept until March 9.

Reported by VGC, the bike is the second time Pokemon has joined forces with a car maker to make a bike based on a Pokemon. Just last year, Toyota produced a bike based off of Violet’s cover star, Miraidon. Now, similarly to last year, this bike is not functional, but rather serves to emulate the “size and weight” of ridable Pokemon.

At this point, it’s not clear what will happen after the display ends, but odds are it will just be shipped off to one of the Pokemon Center stores, which often include large statues. Regardless of practicality, it’s kind of cool to see, especially if you’re a Pokemon fan.
