Nintendo has announced plans to release an Eevee-themed Pokémon 3DS XL in Japan.
The limited edition 3DS XL will be available in Japan from June 22, but will only be sold at official Pokémon Centres, according to Polygon.
However, fans wishing to purchase the Eevee 3DS will have to enter a lottery from today until June 3 in order to be in with a chance of buying one.
The handheld, which will launch to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Pokémon Centre retail establishments, will be sold for 18,900 yen ($187 / £122).
It launches ahead of this year's Pokémon X and Y, which will be released exclusively for the 3DS in October.
Announced during a Direct presentation by Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, the games will feature more than 50 new Pokémon and contain a system called "Real Play" that "makes it feel as if you are playing with other players around the world".
It was recently revealed that Pokémon X and Y will be the first core entries in the series to feature customisable trainers.
Players will be able to alter their protagonist's physical appearance, adjusting hair colour and skin tone.

Best NES games: 30 Nintendo classics that defined the 80s, from Super Mario Bros to The Legend of Zelda
12 best and worst gaming light guns, from Duck Hunt's NES Zapper to the Sega Menacer
Splatoon's next update tweaks most in-game weapons, stages and more
Part home console, part handheld - the Nintendo NX is said to be all power
