Pokémon Karuta 2022

Showa Note published this box as かるた ポケットモンスター (retailer label 「かるた 2022」). It is separated from its neighbours by its own box front, which reads 3倍まなべる！ over the games 1 かるた / 2 かずあそび / 3 ABCカード + ふろく ひらがなひょう, and carries Chimchar, Lucario, Cinderace, Piplup, Turtwig, Pikachu (centre), Eevee, each on a hexagonal panel over a pale blue pinstripe ground with stars. The JAN 4901772670469 and item code 486729003 come from the maker and retailer product records rather than from a photograph of the box side, and this page says so rather than printing them as a box-side reading. None of its 45 kana positions has been identified from a card, so the checklist below stays closed.
