A new Pokémon game brings the most important thing possible — new cuddly creatures. Specifically, new cuddly creatures that can be merchandised and marketed to siphon every last dollar out of the capitalist economy. But hey, they’re huggable, and that’s what matters, right? I mean, just look at these critters….

The sixth episode in the PokéToon series has gotten localized and this one’s all about Gengar! Specifically, it sees a young girl turn into a Gengar after school and shenanigans ensue. Unfortunately we can’t embed the episode but you can watch it for free via the watch.pokemon.com website or through…

Hey, this new Cloud Strife Bring Arts figure looks pretty snazzy. The original Final Fantasy VII design, posable, not the most extravagantly pricey at $130… but what’s this?

Earlier today, The Pokémon Company and Squishmallows teased of an amazing collaboration between the two companies, and boy are we excited! Initially, we only got a glimpse at Pikachu’s silhouette, but as it turns out, another favorite ‘mon will be joining the Squishmallows lineup. Lucky for us, we didn’t have…

Ah, SDCC. A time for press interviews, cool trailers, and merch. So, so much merch. And while it’s always hard to crown on “winner” on such fronts, the mere suggestion of this product — a Pikachu Squishmallow — makes a strong case before there’s even been an official reveal.  …

IDW’s Sonic comics continue to go from strength to strength – not only did the main series celebrate 50 issues recently, but two new spin-offs have been announced.
