Pokémon Pokopia plushies are selling out fast — Peakychu already gone

Pokémon Pokopia plushies are selling out fast — Peakychu already gone
AI summarized Read in LT

Three new plushies tied to the Nintendo Switch 2 life-sim Pokémon Pokopia launched on June 24, and one of them is already sold out. The Pokémon Center announced figures of Peakychu, Mosslax, and Professor Tangrowth, but Peakychu sold out almost immediately after the announcement.

Peakychu is a white Pikachu variant who became a fan favorite thanks to her unexpectedly heartwarming story in Pokopia, which explains why she was the first to go. Mosslax and Professor Tangrowth plushies are still available on the Pokémon Center website at $34.99 each — but given the pace of sales, that window may not stay open long. Alongside the plushies, a range of Jirachi-themed merchandise has also appeared, mostly sleep-focused items like pajamas and blankets. The timing lines up with the in-game Wish Upon a Jirachi event, which runs from June 23 at 5 a.m. through July 8 at 4:59 a.m. based on Nintendo Switch 2 console time.

Pokémon Pokopia launched on March 5 on Nintendo Switch 2, taking the series into life-sim territory in the vein of Animal Crossing and Dragon Quest Builders. Reviews were warm but noted the game's slow pacing — Kotaku called it "an earnest reminder to nurture our world and all the little things in it," provided you can stomach the tedious chores along the way.

If Mosslax or Professor Tangrowth are on your wishlist, the Pokémon Center is the place to check now before stock runs dry.
