pokemon is fun because everyone has a favourite pokemon and even a really niche pokemon will have someone who loves it more than anything.

however, if you are someone who really, really loves a pokemon that is not super duper popular, you are going to spend the rest of your life seeing merchandise lines that would have been perfect for your specialiest little pokemon to be in but they will never actually be included and you will slowly amass a collection of the exact same singular plush toy of that pokemon because it’s the only one available.

#stella talks #.my favourite pokemon is banette who is… moderately popular at least.#.but… i have noticed… a lot of pokemon merch that leans into the creepy cute aesthetic… is often mimikyu focused…#.and i like mimikyu… i do… but… there’s a haunted plush toy pokemon. right there. been there for years. and yet.#.every time merchandise wants a creepy cute doll like thing happening… is it my darling banette…? no. it’s mimikyu.#.<- i love mimikyu and the mimikyu’s circus line was catnip for me.#.i just… really want more banette stuff… my dear sweet banette… precious angel banette… my beloved banette…
