Must-See: How Toyota Brought A Pokémon To Life With Its Miraidon Motorcycle
In a display of creativity and tech-savvy that’s as playful as it is advanced, the gearheads over at the Toyota Engineering Society have channeled their passion into crafting a motorcycle that looks like it rode straight out of Pokémon Violet.
This isn’t just any motorcycle; it’s a prototype that pays homage to Miraidon, the futuristic dragon Pokémon known for its shape-shifting abilities across land, sea, and air, Kotaku reported.
Just like Miraidon, the star of Nintendo ADR‘s (OTC: NTDOY) game and the player’s go-to ride for exploring its vast open world, this bike is a marvel of design that echoes the Pokémon’s versatility.
While this particular set of wheels may not hit the market for Pokémon trainers worldwide, it stands as a testament to Toyota Motor Corp‘s (NYSE: TM) imaginative craftsmanship.
The Miraidon motorcycle captures the spirit of the game, where it not only zips around but is central to a story that weaves through time and unveils a lineage of Pokémon from the future.
And this isn’t Toyota’s first rodeo when it comes to quirky innovations. The company’s Engineering Society is known for dipping its toes in a variety of projects, from robots with a knack for soccer to initiatives aimed at fostering interest in science and technology among children.
