"Pepsi <Nama> BIG ZERO," "Pepsi <Nama> BIG ZERO LEMON," and "POP Melon Soda" feature Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, the first three Pokémon from the game software "Pokémon Red and Green," along with their evolved forms.

"Natchan Apple" features Applin, the "Apple Grass Pokémon," while "Natchan Orange" adopts Pawmo, characterized by its orange body color, with their respective evolved forms designed.

The special original packages arrange the worldview of long-selling brands with motifs of Pokémon's "moves" and characteristics.
