The accessory maker PowerA has a new line of Pokemon-themed wireless Nintendo Switch controllers set to release on February 14, and you can preorder them now. Three controllers are in the lineup, each one representing a starter Pokemon from Pokemon Sword and Shield. That means you can pick your favorite between Scorbunny, Sobble, and Grookey — or grab all three.

The controllers retail for $49.99 each, and they’ll arrive just in time for Valentine’s Day. These are officially licensed products, so they feature all the bells and whistles you’d expect from a Switch controller: motion controls and LEDs for the player number and low-battery warnings. They also offer mappable buttons and can be used for up to 30 hours on a pair of batteries (two of which are included with each controller).
It is a bit unusual in controller world that they run on AA batteries, but it means you don’t have to plug the controller in to recharge it. Plus, extra batteries are available for cheap; in a serendipitous turn of events, Amazon happens to have a good sale going on Energizer AA batteries right now.
These aren’t the first officially licensed Switch controllers from PowerA. The company has released a number of other designs in the past, including more Pokemon-themed ones, as well as Zelda, Overwatch, and more.
