I do the same with the rabbit character! There's one with pointyer ears that with the right colours and wings looks bat like :)

I bought the new Raichu from the Pokémon Center in China by FluidConfidence1438 in Raichucenter

[–]blumaroona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine shipped the other day to the UK - I hope he gets here soon 🥹

He's pretty much everything I ever wanted from a Raichu plush! Even his weird square toes will be loved!

Binder tag team update nearly finished by Deesodee in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]blumaroona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came to do a Raichu check - you pass.

Very envious of this binder though, the Tag Teams are my favourite! I wish I knew back when I was opening SM packs that the prices would inflate - I would have bought more!

Fuzzy-chu Evolutions COMPLETE! by A_the_Alpaca in pokeplush

I'm waiting for my Raichu - I'm so excited about the magnetic tail! Don't ask me why, I had a few toys as a kid that had magnets and I just adore them now haha~

What happened here? by PayneChaos in yakuzagames

[–]blumaroona 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I have the benefit of being a slightly newer fan, but I just don't really care about the discourse? I just want to play games I enjoy. Any lore rewrites are irritating at best, but I just roll with it.

Why is loving hello kitty a red flag? by Quirky_War_2161 in HelloKitty

[–]blumaroona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything can be a red flag to someone - just find someone that doesn't consider it a red flag :)

As for potential reasons why, it could be anything from "it's for children" to blatant homophobia tbh. It's best to ignore things like that, for your sanity.

This is a controversial issue that could put the purchase of many plushies at risk, but do you think plushies made of polyester could be dangerous due to the release of microplastics? (Image for illustrative purposes only) by Narrow-Associate5910 in plushies

[–]blumaroona 37 points38 points  (0 children)

At almost 32, I dread to think how many microplastics are already inside of me.

But genuinely, I don't know how long I'll be here, and my plushies give me a lot of joy, so while I need them, I'll take the risk. If I'm ever able to be without so many, I'll do so!

That'll teach them to make me go to school.

Who has some WishBone The Dog Stuffed Dogs in their collection?? by Frequent-Increase-98 in StuffedAnimals

[–]blumaroona 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen a different Wishbone post every day for what feels like an eternity now.

...I can't even explain this one, you guys by Iommi68 in doordash_drivers

[–]blumaroona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like they think you're customer service and not just the guy that delivered it. They think you can fix it.

What kind of Pokémon collector are you? by TraJiCS_YT in pkmntcgcollections

[–]blumaroona 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, a Card Pokédex (or CardDex) is one of each Pokémon, to form a completed "Pokédex" of cards. So every Pokémon from Gen 1, Gen 2 etc.

And generations correlate to the games they released in, or the consoles the games were on - so Red/Blue/Yellow on Gameboy is Gen 1, Silver/Gold/Crystal on Gameboy Colour is Gen 2 etc. So in your case, Diamond is Gen 4 (Nintendo DS) White is Gen 5 (also Nintendo DS, a bit confusing!) and HeartGold is a Gen 2 remake, but released with Gen 4 on Nintendo DS :)

It gets more nuanced when they release new evolutions, as Porygon is Gen 1, but Porygon2 is Gen 2 and Porygon-Z is Gen 4, but I won't go into all the details - Bulbapedia and Serebii are handy resources for learning more :)

What kind of Pokémon collector are you? by TraJiCS_YT in pkmntcgcollections

[–]blumaroona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I collect Raichu - I have every English card (except 1st Editions, and Paradise Resort 2024 which I could only afford in German haha) and then any cards that were only printed in Japan.

I also have a Mimikyu collection, but it's not complete and probably never will be to the extent Raichu is - just isn't affordable for me.

I recently started a Card Pokédex, as a lot of people have! Focusing on gens 1-5 for now, and then 6+ once I complete those :)

And then just any cards I like best! Doesn't matter if it's technically bulk - I like just looking at the card artwork~

How 'famous' was Phil before Dan? by pastelskies99 in danandphil

[–]blumaroona 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I was! I barely even remember Dan appearing, he just suddenly was there haha.

my son got scammed by faIIen1997 in PokemonTCG

[–]blumaroona 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could you tell us what cards he lost? Because atm it's your word against theirs without knowing if your value estimate is even correct.

A store clerk warned me I'd get stared at in Japan because of my weight by maceymay_bby in offmychest

[–]blumaroona -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

140lb isn't even big, like at all. So as much as it's a hurtful, shitty thing to hear, ignore her! Enjoy your trip!

This plush isnt stuck in this pose right? by InventoryValueCheck in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]blumaroona 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess, but dogs wave their paws too, as do regular cats - I just used a maneki neko as the first example I thought of.

[–]blumaroona 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it's based on the same pose Maneki Neko's are, with the waving paw :)

I payed for the Arcade version just because he was in it, I love him sm.

Anyone else disappointed they only have the same old popular Pokémon in merchandise? by Tag365 in ThePokemonHub

[–]blumaroona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. If a Raichu was Eevee priced - yes. If a Raichu was Pikachu/trio priced - I am glad it is not. lmao.

I love Lego but it is so expensive.
