While Pokemon like Pikachu or Eevee always seem to get the spotlight when it comes to merchandise, it looks like The Pokemon Company has been branching out a bit lately. And even though it has clearly been getting quite creative in the Pokemon plush department, it seems to be taking a more flexible approach with the second installment of a brand new line of posable plushes featuring monsters from a variety of generations.

A couple of weeks ago, The Pokemon Company announced new additions to its “Pokemon Posing” line of plushes, which already included Pokemon like Machamp, Gallade, and Corviknight. Now, fans can pre-order the line’s second installment of fully posable Pokemon plushes which adds Scizor, Cofagrigus, Cinderace, Toxtricity in its Amped Form, and Obstagoon to the collection.
Recently, more obscure Pokemon have been getting attention in the merchandise department, especially in terms of plushes, like the Pokemon “Sitting Cuties” line, which lets fans choose from smaller, sitting version of their favorite monsters from the original 151 up to the Hoenn region, which is currently being rolled out. The Pokemon Company also seems to be taking its plushes quite seriously, as it recently issued a deep apology for an incorrect color on the Magnemite Sitting Cuties plush, offering fans an exchange.
As Pokemon celebrates its 25th anniversary, fans have had a lot of activities, in-game and virtual events, and announcements to look forward to, including the reveal of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, as well as Pokemon Legends: Arceus. And even though Pokemon Day has come and gone, it looks like celebrations are sure to continue throughout 2021.
