It's about how Sanriku Railway in Iwate (the Japanese prefecture that adopted Geodude as a mascot a while ago) are going to have Geodude-centric designs on their trains for a while.

I know, but what made them pick Geodude (beside the fact 90% of time the mascots come from Gen 1). Tp me Geodude reminds me of rockslides and mudslides that can also affect the railway system everytime there is a quake or monsoon season rainfalls.

Literally says right there on the page.
Iwate is written 岩手
岩 = rock
手 = hand

So they chose a mascot that's literally a rock with hands. It's the most obvious thing ever.

Japan is like one of those paradise destinations for the designers, I love their product package design so much, it's infuriatingly good.
Also their kids are some of the most photogenic ones ever, those pictures are too cute to be real.

Are these some kind of candied or dried fruits and nuts or salted and roasted snacks that look like amber and minerals?
Or it's actual rocks in a can?
I know some salted snacks are sold in cans too but who knows with Japan.

It looked too realistic but still didn't expect it to be real amber since amber can be pricey considering it is still used in jewelry, sure those pieces may not be the highest quality ones but I'm definitely surprised.

I have a feeling Pokemon might get closer to what Samsung is in South Korea, sooner or later they'll have holdings, banks, research centers and political power by this going. All of this and they will still make shit tier and low quality new gens.

Kuji in Iwate is the only place in Japan where amber can be found, so the place is famous for it. Has its own amber museum and stuff.

Canned amber is a popular souvenir because it's so unique to the area.

Yeah I think that's it. And just in general they seem to be tied into the idea of lifting the community through commercialism rather than just bleeding everyone dry. Like Slowpoke is the mascot of his region to highlight the region's udon, and Geodude is Iwate's mascot to help give them something to rally behind as they go through reconstruction. It just feels so warm and inviting.

A lot of this stuff spun off from Pokemon With You too, which was a relief project to make the kids suffering from the Tohoku disaster feel a bit better about the absolute hell their lives had turned into.

You can't feel too cynical about something that's all about making sad kids happy. It's like bitching about Ronald McDonald House Charities.
