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.

Mimikyu Mini

Price: Unknown
Type: Plush
Species: Mimikyu
Gen: 7
Origin: Collector’s shop
This is a 8 inch Mimikyu plush. This Pokémon looks like Pikachu, but it’s a completely different line of species. It’s actually a Ghost/Fairy type Pokemon. It’s true form is hidden underneath its Pikachu costume, since everyone that sees it is paralyzed with fear. It is also said that it chose a costume that looks like Pikachu in hopes of becoming more popular. This plush is small enough to act as a keychain plush, and sits itself up very well despite having no support. I got this at a local shopping district I go to once a month. One of the shops sells American and Japanese Pokémon merchandise, including many different Mimikyu.

Alolan Raichu

Price: Unknown – shipping
Type: Plush
Species: Raichu
Gen: 7
Origin: TOMY

A 10 inch plush of Alolan Raichu. It’s the evolved form of Pikachu when in Alola. Alola is a tropical region. It uses psychic powers to surf on its tail, even when in midair. It’s also said to smell like pancakes, either because it’s made of them or it eats them too much. This became a popular plush when it first came out, and even got up to $50! I have two of these, one loose and one boxed and I got them both as gifts. It’s one of my favorites because it is made of a softer material than most of the TOMY plushies.
