Monpoké creates its first auxiliary toilet seat that features the beloved Pokemon character, Pikachu. The Japanese company offers a training essential to help parents. Notably, the design can be altered as children grow up and updated accordingly.
The toilet can be changed so that children are facing Pikachu with a handle that features the character for children to grasp with both hands. It can be used in three different ways, as the youngest setting has them sit down and learn with the potty. The second step is for approximately 18 month olds, detaching the top portion as a supplementary toilet seat. The third step is for toddlers, repurposing the potty to be used as an auxiliary seat and as a step stool.
