Pokémon’s quest to merchandise is never-ending, and while they usually focus on the titular creatures, there is also a great amount of love (and thus potential capital) for the various human characters of the franchise too — as exemplified by Pokémon Center Japan’s next release, which plushifies all the Gym leaders (and the champion) of the Galar region.
There are a couple qualifiers to that description (they have Bede with no Opal and Marnie with no Piers) but otherwise the gang’s all here, and all for the highly marketable price of ¥1,650. That’s not even $15! You could spend more at Chipotle. And what’s more valuable, a burrito or a plush Nessa? You know the answer. That said, these appear Japan-only at the moment, so we’ll be sure to let you know if they ever make it overseas.
