When you think of a Pikachu colorway, yellow is probably the first thing that comes to mind. But for this Megaride F50 "Pikachu," adidas went a different route, opting for a Core Black, Carbon, and Cloud White combo instead—style code KH6544—flipping the script by tucking away the most obvious color choice.

This pair is part of the Pokémon x adidas collaboration marking the brand's 30th anniversary, a collection spanning both footwear and apparel. The Megaride F50, a soccer silhouette, gets named after the character here, but the colorway deliberately steers clear of the obvious yellow symbolism in favor of a more neutral black-gray-white palette—arguably the most talked-about detail in the entire collection.
