I'm...honestly disappointed on the design(s). It's basically the same picture (and clip art) slapped on the various items.

Especially since Japan gets so much better stuff, and even has events that sell nice items. Have a few examples:
ころっとかわいい「Pokémon Petit(ポケモンプチ)」の新商品が登場! |ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト Pokemon Petit: Has a certain art style, the art on the different items differ.
ポケモンセンターに、新しい「ポケモン×和柄」グッズが登場! |ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト Pokemon x Wagara (Japanese design): granted this is expensive high-quality designer stuff, but again, both sets have it's own distinctive art style. This is focused on adults as well, so it might be a bad comparison.
『ポケットモンスター X・Y』の登場人物のグッズが、発売決定! 大人気「プラターヌ博士」の撮影スポットも出現! |ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト This is probably the closest set to this set of international merch. Mostly official art slapped on different items. I feel like Calem, Serena and Scyamore are edited from their official art to a new pose.
ニャスパーが、ポフレを持って消えちゃった!? 「ニャスパーWANTED!!!」グッズ新発売! |ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト Espurr Wanted!: Distinct art to make this set stand out. No use of official art or clip art used!

I'm a bit disgruntled that Japan's merch has so much with nice art while everyone else gets the smaller piece of the pie. I really wish the international merch had as much thought as Japanese PC merch to it than this....

Looks like stuff Toys R Us would sell.
