There's a new Pokemon game about to hit Nintendo 3DS systems this week. With trainers set to return to Alola for a second tour with Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Niantic's mobile take on the franchise is set to get some special tie-in content.

Starting today, November 13, Pokemon GO users can find new avatar items straight from the Alola region. That means decking out your trainer in fashionable island gear.

These items should already be in the player's inventory as soon as they log into Pokemon GO. So get ready for fun in the sun and dress in those short-sleeved tops and beach shorts. It's the perfect weather* for it, so head outside today!

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
