Pokemon: I Choose You! - Pehmoeläin, Squirtle

He's the perfect size to tuck into a bag for a commute, and the stitching around his little tail has held up through plenty of couch adventures. Honestly, I just keep finding myself squeezing him while I work—he's got that classic chubby Squirtle charm down.

The shell texture has that nice, slightly pebbly feel you'd expect from a real Squirtle, and it's packed just firmly enough to hold its shape during hugs. My kid immediately claimed it for bedtime, and the face is spot-on for the classic anime look.

Got mine in the mail today and it’s been sitting on my desk ever since, just the right size to squeeze during work calls. The shell has that slight sheen like in the anime, and the stitching around the face is really clean for a 7-inch plush.
