This is a good idea. A very, very good idea.
Starting this month in South Korea, Krispy Kreme is rolling out Pokémon doughnuts.
You can get a Squirtle for 2,000 won (US$1.80), a Pikachu for 2,500 won ($2.27), or Pokéball for 1,800 won each. You can also order a “Pokémon Dozen” for 15,000 won ($16.30).
Note that not all the doughnuts included in the dozen are Pokémon themed!
Let’s have a closer look at the ones that are:

The best part, though?
Squirtle’s gruesome-looking filling!
