Heinz Company in the year 2000.[1] The product was made in both a Blue Version and a Red Version, each containing pasta in tomato sauce cut to the shape of various Pokémon from the corresponding games. The Blue version featured Blastoise on the label while the Red version featured Charizard. They came in cans of 420g in weight and were sold in Canada and the United States.
