I've got the 13" one, and the one I think Jurz and I are talking about is the Pokemon Center pokedoll they had a while back that suddenly disappeared (or maybe that never existed and I'm just remembering wrong, I don't know). But the one you linked is cuuuuute! I'm sorry they weren't in stock when you went there before. D: Yes, definitely, I missed out on the talking Zorua plush, and I'm so upset about that.

I don't know if it's just me, but... I don't like Game Stop promotions. Especially on brand new pokemon like Diancie. I know several of my friends who live in certain places were there isn't any stores for miles. Just something kind of irks me about personally. Maybe it's my inner hermit coming out. XD

I have a genuine dislike of them from years of having to go to them to pre-order/buy games. Their staff is rude a lot of the time, talking down on me like I don't know what I was talking about. They hardly ever have anything on time in my personal experience. The last Pokemon event, they didn't have the code cards when they were suppose to and had NO IDEA what-so-ever how the event even worked! (Even a MANAGER had no idea what was going on... They told me I needed my DS and had to log on to their Wi-Fi to get it and even told me I had to pre-order OR/AS to get them!

Also, just made a new LJ account instead of using my old one from 2003. I didn't want some of the old crap posts and old memories of that one, so I just made a new one. I applied to join the Pkmncollectors community. I'll probably wait to post until I get my new stuff in the mail, then do a nice introduction/get post.

The Reshiram plush I linked I want to get eventually. It's quite cute. =3

I've pretty much left the PkmnCollectors community now to be honest. Some fellow Sylveon collectors were very rude to me and some others and I've just had enough. That and when I came back after not being active for ages, I asked about where to get various plushies (including that talking Zorua you were after, Falcon) I just got ignored. I found generally people were nice but some of the 'bigger' collectors who can afford pretty much whatever they want and whenever they want it can be downright rude to people who can't. I sometimes post on their Facebook group page but otherwise, meh.

If anyone's wanting to know what official Pokemon Center 'Pokedolls' there are (the Pokemon Center are the only ones who release 'Pokedolls'), this guy/girl's collection page has them all: http://mypokedolls.weebly.com/pokedolls.html They're very popular though so a lot of them go for high prices when they're no longer being produced.

And the Reshiram Pokedoll is by far one of the most adorable out there!

Image

The only Pokedolls I own are the Litleo, Fennekin and Sylveon ones but they are ridiculously adorable, so high quality and very, very soft, it's so tempting to collect more.

Edit: Oh we're doing a team of favourites from each Gen now are we? Okay then, here we go, one more before I go to bed... xD

This was actually easier than I expected. I also made them all shiny because all my favourites also happen to be desirable shinies for me, even if I don't own them (yet!).

Image

Gen 1 - Ninetales: Looks like me and Falcon flipped the Charizard/Ninetales coin. xD I love Charizard but Ninetales, being my first ever shiny, will always have the biggest place in my heart. ♥
Gen 2 - Suicune: I just adore Suicune. I love it's elegance, I've always liked Suicune, even when I was a child. And thanks to Falcon, I do have a shiny one! :3
Gen 3 - Mightyena: I don't own a shiny Mightyena yet but I can't wait to, I absolutely love it!
Gen 4 - Floatzel: Because I don't care what you say, I love my Kipper! ... Well, at least I will when I own him. xD And his cry is ADORABLE LEAVE HIM ALONE. ;-;
Gen 5 - Liepard: I went into White not knowing what Pokemon were out this Gen and I immediately fell in love with Liepard, the leopard is one of my favourite wild animals.
Gen 6 - Sylveon: ... I don't feel like I need to explain this. x'D Seriously though, I'm ridiculously passionate about this Pokemon. If I had a Pokesona, it'd be a Sylveon for sure.

*cries* that's it! I could only find one seller who was German and doesn't ship to the US and the price was the equivalent of about 100 US dollars. It's extremely tempting, except they don't ship here…I know it's really overpriced, but Reshiram is my all time favorite legend and possibly my all time favorite Pokemon so it'd be worth it to me. Oh well. Maybe one day

Sorry for the double post. I decided to add one for Shinies since everyone else was, and one for a fav from each gen and my fav type.
Image
Latias- SOON!
Giratina- One day…
Kingdra- Horsea was my first shiny (I don't count my shinies from Crystal for personal reasons) so there's some sentiment, and the game it was on was deleted (curse you little brother!) so there's a part of me that just wants it back…
Swampert- His colors are more like an Axolotl, and…Axolotls <3
Umbreon- I love Umbreon and I love Shiny Umbreon even more!
Sylveon- I'm not s huge fan of Sylveon actually. I like her a lot more than I thought I would, but…her shiny sprite <3

Image
Jolteon- It was Jolteon or Scyther and I picked my favorite eeveelution <3
Ampharos- Another awesome electric type! I can never chose between Typhlosion and Feraligatr so I decided to choose a completely different Pokemon instead!
Sceptile- I. Love. Treecko's line.
Giratina- IDK if you all have noticed yet, but I. LOVE. Giratina
Reshiram- This was the hardest. Reshiram. Or Zoroark.
Tyrantrum- Godzilla <3

DRAGONS!
Image
(I decide to not include Reshiram or Latias this time. I feel like you guys can tell how much I love them XD)
Dragonite- Classic <3
Flygon- Probably the best non-legend dragon EVER imho
Giratina- I just HAD to include him AGAIN.
Tyrantrum- Godzilla <3
Noivern- Norberta <3
(Mega) Ampharos- One of my absolute fav Pokemon as part dragon? YES PLEASE!

I was thinking about joining livejournal in an attempt to find my elusive Reshiram Pokedoll, but nothing's worse than being around a bunch of jerks so IDK. I can't think of a better way to keep on the lookout for one though. Ugh. First world problems lol I've also decided that I need the White Kyurem Pokedoll as well one day. ONE DAY! I wish I could just put it out there that I'm looking for them and get them that way XD

I wanted one so bad. The guy said they were working more towards X/Y merchandise now and getting rid of the Black/White stuff. I hope they toss that idea and start remaking some of the older stuff for those of us who missed it the first time around. *cough*giganticSuicuneplushIwouldgivemysoulfor*cough*

I've only had a job for the past year now, (next part is totally not looking for sympathy, but more so me feeling I need to explain) before that I struggled with horrible depression/anxiety for 10 years and never really left my room. So I'm only really now able to actually buy things I've always wanted. Well.. as long as they are still affordable. That Suicune plush I wanted back then? People ask well over 1,000$ for it now. The foot tall one? That's about 200$. The tiny little chibi SD Suicune? About 50$ or more. *sad face* I might just buy a China knock off and hope it's really nice quality just so I can have a Suicune "Pokedoll". There are ones on Ebay for >5$ and look pretty nice.
This one seems legit? I could be wrong since I'm not a pro at identifying bootlegs but for $20, why not? It's gotten good reviews

UK release dates announced for the shiny Gengar and Diancie. :3 I'm pretty glad we're getting them to be honest. October 15th to November 5th for Gengar and November 6th to November 28th for Diancie. I probably won't use the shiny Gengar though so if anyone would like it, I'd gladly hand it over to someone.

I was thinking a Chatot would have worked better for Zazu as well. I can see Murkrow, but Chatot fits better color wise.

I've actually had that on my wishlist on Amazon and saw someone posted one for 20$. I gave in an ordered it today. I can't spend anymore money until I get paid again.... unless that awesome Charizard figure pops on ebay. Anyway, hoping it is legit as it is a US seller. If not it's going back and I want my money back. Here is to hoping.

The upcoming CoroCoro release isn't going to just have new information, but also a serial code for a demo of ORAS. The player being able to obtain a new mega evolution through it as well. The problem? Well I'm 99.9% sure this will be Japan only. >> Meaning it will only work on Japanese 3DS's. No confirmation just yet considering this is next months issue.

Mega Camerupt looks so cute. xD None of these particularly excite me but I know people were really hoping for Mega Sharpedo. :3

I knew Gallade would get a mega evolution, it was absolutely inevitable. Mega Sharpedo looks kind of neat, but what's that floating in its mouth? o_O And I admit, I thought Camerupt turned into a slug at first, made me do a double-take. XD

And I love my boyfriend!!! He handed me a Mega Charizard X box when he came home, and told me that if Walmart had also had the Y box, he would've gotten it for me, too! *happy sobbing!* I... just can't stop staring at the figure. I love the details, especially how they did the flames! I absolutely can not wait to order the Y box when my disability comes in.

Snowy: I pulled a holofoil Machamp card from one of the two Furious Fists packs that came in the box, do you have that one? The other holofoil I got is Clawitzer, but I'm pretty sure you've already got that one?

If you're talking about the small bit inside it's mouth, it's a hole in the side by the looks of things. It has a small hole in the other side of it's mouth too.

That's really kind of your boyfriend to do! :3 The figure is amazing isn't it? The TCG figures are simply the best. As for the holo cards, lemme quickly check my Furious Fists binder. xD Uhmmm... No I don't have the Machamp holo! And yes I do already have Clawitzer, I'm pretty sure I pulled that one from one of the very first packs I opened.
