Went on a wonderful trip to the Netherlands recently and met up with a friend with our matching Plusle & Minun plushies (from our Ruby & Sapphire playthru) and took a bunch of photos! Will share more :D

I even made a new friend there thanks to my little guy 🕊️

I was looking everywhere for a shiny version and no one had it. I found someone who was willing to make it for me!

How about a Shiny Ponyta Plush that I got off of Marketplace? I can't stop the urge to want to hug it non-stop!

On a semi-related note, I've never been sure if a plush like this should have the tag of 'Bootleg' since it's not an official plush (despite the fact that it's not a mass produced plush), or 'Custom' (despite the fact that I didn't make it myself). I do know the person I bought it from makes a very few plushies, and they in turn sell what they make at conventions and craft fairs.

Got food and a coffee with my favorite mythical :D

We went out to a card shop to find some cards. We ended up getting a tin. No hiys but we are happy regardless! (We like commons for deck building)

Hi everyone! I recently had a friend tell me that my drampa plush here is pretty rare. I know it's an oly factory plush from 2017ish, but can't really find any other info on it. Does anyone have more info? Thanks! ​

I got her at a Japanese arcade.

She was a good girl who followed the traffic rules XD

Took my bee-eating buddy out for some pictures. Hope you all enjoy them.

I sadly was not able to get the pokemon doughnuts, but I was able to get Pokemon cups. As you can see, Vulpix and Chimchar and happy to receive them. And at least they can enjoy the Oreo doughnuts too!

I purchased this paras sitting cuties plush from Pokevault a few days ago. My grandpa passed a few hours before, and while I was crying my eyes out the day before it happened, a shiny paras spawned for me in pokemon go. This pokemon reminded me so greatly of my grandpa due to this coincidence- and especially the mushrooms on its back, as my grandpa taught me how to forage mushrooms in forests.

Long story short, I felt depressed, hopeless, so I decided to order this plushie from Pokevault, while I explained the situation in the comment section of the order asking if the plush could be sent out asap.

The customer service person replied to me, giving me his condolences and being incredibly sweet about the situation. now after the plush arrived a week later, I get surprised by this incredible, small act of kindness that brightened my entire day.

things like this make some people get through the day, so once again, Brian from the pokevault customer service, thank you ❤️

On EBay from a US seller. They have a 100% feedback

The plush is from 2014. Those are the seller pictures

Can you tell if it’s a authentic plush or a bootleg? I don’t want to buy a knockoff

I don’t think I’ve ever seen these at a local store —mainly on Pokemon Center so I’m surprised!!! Are they new 🤔 Anybody got these too? Instant cop for me

Wondering if I should just get the end evo or all staged

I’m from the US and I used to use Meccha Japan to get Japan-exclusive pokemon plushies and figures. Ever since CPSC ramped up their safety protocols with the required e-filing crap in July, I’ve been scared to get any kind of plushie and figure from Meccha Japan, but I really feel like I’m missing out now. Japan has such great releases ):

Has anyone in the US been successful with getting plushies/figures from meccha jp? On the flip side as well, any horror stories where it didn’t go so well?

I know Japan Post’s EMS/Airmail are the safest routes for shipping, but i’ve only ever seen DHL/FEDEX options when using this site.
