G-Max Pikachu

Price: ~$35.99 + shipping
Type: Plush
Species: Pikachu
Gen: 8
Origin: Pokemon Center

Pikachu’s design has changed alot over the years. In the first 5 years of Pokemon, it was very rotund like a hamster. However its body shape will change based on what it being marketed, or the current season of the animated series. Recently it has been slimmed down and made round around the head area. But during the 8th generation a new form of Pikachu was released based off the Japanese Kaijus, a Giant Pikachu! As a old time fan, I long waited for the time of this plush’s release. The red velvet like cloud around the head is a nice color touch and fits well with the brown stripes and red checks.

Pikachu Build-a-Bear

Price: ~$60.99 + shipping
Type: Plush
Species: Pikachu
Gen: 7
Origin: Build-A-Bear

Build-a-bear has released many species of Pokémon plush these days, but the first was Pikachu. At the the time there was 2 kinds of clothes and two kinds of voices, self made and preinstalled. I originally got three when they first came out, one in a Charizard suit, one in a Pokeball hoodie with the preinstalled voice, and another with my own voice and no outfit. I then was able to get a fourth as at a second hand shop, with no add ones. The plush itself is not all too different from Tomy’s style of making them. Very firm , it’s not too soft or plush.

Snowman Pikachu (Holiday 2014)

Price: ~$14.99 – shipping
Type: Plush
Species: Pikachu
Gen: 6
Origin: Pokemon Center Online USA

A snowman shaped as a snowman, with a removeable scarf. A personal favorite of mine, this was one of the few plushies that started my drive for collection. This plush is actually quite popular online, the price of it has close to doubled since it came out. There was one year that it came back but only for a week or so.

It’s actually quite popular: It is based off the snowman Pikachu pet Pikachu can make in Mt. Snowfall in Pokemon Channel for the GameCube. Which also made an appearance as a home décor in Gen 5’s Dream World Online app. An April Fool’s joke about Game Freak moving to the north to save Snowman Pikachu from polar bears was made by Game Freak themselves. Lastly, it has been used on and off in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade.
