The Pokémon franchise, first released over 26 years ago is only set to get bigger and better. The newest game, Pokémon Legends: Arceus launched in January and during Pokémon Day, the brand announced the release of two additional games, namely Pokémon Violet and Pokémon Scarlet, the 9th generation iteration of the original Pokémon Red and Blue games.
This was big news for Pokémon fans, who’ve been waiting with bated breath for more Pokémon video games to hit the stands. And, out of the wild, Nintendo announced preorders for both games earlier this week. While you anxiously wait and prepare for the December 31st release date, why not shop some of the best Pokémon merch on sale right now?
From classic Pokémon plush toys to a limited edition Pokémon Nintendo Switch, here’s the best Pokémon merch you can shop for right now.

Why buy a generic Nintendo Switch when you can buy one that’s Pokémon-themed?
This yellow and gold special edition Nintendo Switch features Eevee and Pikachu decals on the charging doc and comes with the Let’s Go Pikachu! game and a Poke ball Plus accessory (Note if you prefer Eevee, shop the Switch Let’s Go! Eevee Bundle).

Pokémon plushies are not just cute, they’re also a collector’s item. And, Amazon has a whole shop dedicated to them.
You can buy plushies as small as eight inches or as large as 24 inches with options for classic Pokémon like Pikachu and Squirtle or evolved
Pokémon like Espeon and Umbreon.We recommend shopping this adorable 10-inch Snorlax plush that comes with 20 built-in sound effects and two modes of play. Hear your Pokémon speak, snore or munch. You can even ‘feed’ it the included Peecha Berry toy for more interactions.

Build-A-Bear has a whole collection dedicated to Pokémon plush and many of them come with their own sound effects and unique clothing items.

A bunch of other Pokémon bundles are currently sold out at Build-A-Bear so if you like this one, make sure to order it before stocks sell out.

Pop Sockets make it easier to grip your phone so you can text or take pictures with one hand.
Now, you can buy Pokémon-styled PopSockets and one of our favorites is this Charmander-themed one. You can stick those PopSockets straight onto older iPhones, although we suggest sticking it over a sturdy phone case for better results.
Since the pop tops are also replaceable, you can buy them in multiple different Pokémon designs and change them daily.

This Converse x Pokémon collab t-shirt was designed with a crew neckline, short sleeves and a Pikachu graphic on its front.
The material is all cotton, so you know it’s incredibly comfortable. Layer it under your favorite jacket or pair it with your sweatpants for a more relaxed look. Since it’s gender-neutral both you and your significant other can take turns wearing this comfy tee.

Etsy has a bunch of Pokémon merch but my personal favorite is this Bulbasaur planter.
It’s minimalistic, understated and handmade from concrete. You can pop your own succulent in or purchase it as an add-on when you shop.
