A water-type Pokemon, has been appointed as an ambassador by Japan’s Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism for Water Day, which is a holiday to raise awareness of water resources. Vaporeon is not the first water-type Pokemon to be given its own mascot, as Lapras was also given a mascot suit in Japan to promote
\npublic transport in the Miyagi Prefecture. Vaporeon joins a group of other Pokemon mascots, including Geodude and Slowpoke, that have been chosen to represent Japanese prefectures and industries.<\/p>\n

A Rock-type P<\/span>okemon. Geodude has been made into a mascot to represent the Iwate Prefecture in Japan, as the name of the prefecture translates to “rock hands” or “pebble hands”, and Geodude is a floating rock with hands in the Pokemon universe. This makes Geodude a fitting representative for the prefecture.<\/span><\/p>\n
