Sprigatito has a mouse now. ATK unveiled a Pokémon edition of its A9 Mini Master Edition+ on November 9, dressing the 39-gram esports mouse in two shades of green with the Grass Cat Pokémon printed across the shell. Sales opened in China on November 10, and yes, there’s a sticker pack in the box.
Sprigatito is the grass starter from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the Paldea region’s pick back in 2022.
A green cat with a leaf collar and an extremely meme-able face. As mouse art goes, it’s a gift. ATK leaned all the way in.
A full-color Sprigatito sits on the right button, mid-pounce, tongue out. A line-art version of its face marks the palm rest, the scroll wheel and side buttons go deep green, and tiny plus marks run along the seams between the buttons. Flip it over and things stay plain, with wide skates and a clean sensor window.
The edition builds on the top trim of ATK’s China-market A9 Mini range rather than an entry shell, and the box adds a set of matching Sprigatito stickers. The theme can spread to a laptop lid if one desk needs more green cat on it.
Under the artwork sits ATK’s smallest A9 shell. It measures 118.4 by 61.2 by 38.6 millimeters, it’s symmetrical, and it’s shaped for small to medium hands.
Weight lands at 39 grams, give or take three.

Hardware
ATK’s announcement for the edition lists a Nordic nRF54LM20 chip driving a PixArt PAW3955 sensor. Custom optical switches sit under the main buttons, the scroll wheel is a TTC gold encoder, and polling runs at 8,000 Hz over both the USB-C cable and the 2.4 GHz wireless link. Quoted click latency goes as low as 0.174 milliseconds. Nothing on that list is a downgrade made for the sake of the artwork.
The 200 mAh battery is rated for around 200 hours at 1,000 Hz polling. Run 8K constantly and you’ll plug in far more often, but that’s the standing trade with every polling-rate monster in this class.
Numbers aside, the recipe is the current ultralight formula: a small shell you can flick without thinking, a flagship sensor, and polling fast enough that the mouse stops being the bottleneck. The collab wraps that formula in much better art than the usual black or white.
For scale, the Mini is the lightest branch of the A9 family. Air models land around 47 grams, the full-size Ultimate versions around 55, and every shape in the range is symmetrical, aimed at claw, palm and fingertip grips. Full-size A9 shells run about 125 millimeters long for medium to large hands, so the Mini is the pick for smaller hands.
Price and availability
Master Edition+ is the China-market flagship trim of the A9 Mini+ line ATK sells worldwide. The standard Mini+ runs the same PAW3955 Master sensor, rated up to 50,000 DPI with 850 IPS tracking and 75 G of acceleration. ATK’s store lists it from $69.98 in Lake Green, Petal Pink, black and white, with the GEM 8K receiver in the box.
ATK’s HUB software handles the settings and drivers for the A9 line.
ATK has run Pokémon editions before this one. Pikachu mice and keyboards came earlier, a Gengar wave landed this past October, and Sprigatito is a natural pick for a mouse line that already sells a Lake Green colorway. The line has become a running series rather than a one-off.
Special editions aren’t new for this mouse, either. ATK’s global store sells a Chronicle Edition of the standard Mini+ at $79.98, above the regular $69.98 colors. The A9 Ultimate range does the same trick elsewhere, with a Leviatan Edition of the Air+ also sitting at $79.98. None of the existing versions put a Pokémon on the buttons, though.
The catch is geography. This edition is a China release, priced at an in-hand 339.15 yuan, roughly $51 at today’s exchange rate. It went on sale at 3 p.m. China time on November 10 through ATK’s Chinese storefronts, and ATK hasn’t announced a US release.

Want the hardware without the import hunt? The standard A9 Mini+ is the same shell and sensor in plainer clothes, on sale in the US right now. The Sprigatito version is the one people will hunt for, though. Collab runs like this tend to move fast once the Pokémon crowd notices, and 39 grams of grass cat is a strong argument all by itself.
