2 New Pokemon Squishmallow Plushes Officially Revealed

Highlights

Pokemon fans can look forward to new Squishmallows featuring Dragonite and Marill, two beloved Pokemon from the earlier generations.
The Pokemon Center has teased the new designs for the Squishmallows, but the release date has not been announced yet.
Those who really like Dragonite or Marill should grab one of these plush toys early, as demand can often be high for Pokemon Squishmallows.

Pokemon and Squishmallow continue to partner up, and the next two Pokemon Squishmallows have been revealed as Dragonite and Marill. This follows a prior leak indicating that these Pokemon were in the works.

Dragonite and Marill date back to Gen 1 and 2 of the Pokemon series, respectively, and have had numerous fans since then. Dragonite remains one of the most powerful choices in Pokemon games, and Marill’s charming design appeals to players, especially after it gained a baby pre-evolution in Gen 3. Pokemon fans who consider these two among their favorites will want to keep their eyes open for these upcoming Squishmallows.

Pokemon Fan Creates Fusion Art of Vaporeon and Blacephalon

A talented fan artist creates a new Pokemon by imagining a fusion of the Water-type Vaporeon with the Fire/Ghost-type Blacephalon.

The Pokemon Center has teased the two new Squishmallow designs in a recent email newsletter. Only a portion of the two new Pokemon Squishmallows are visible, but it’s clear who they are. The Dragonite’s rounded shape is cute and stylized in compared to its normal bipedal design, but the Marill looks almost like its evolution, Azumarill, with its rounded egg-like shape. Unfortunately, at this time, the Pokemon Company has not announced when the two designs will become available. Fans should stay tuned to ensure that they get their orders in early.

Typically, Pokemon Squishmallows go on sale at The Pokemon Center first, and then arrive at retail chains like Walmart and Target after the exclusive time period. The Pokemon Center variants have a unique tag and label, but the plush Pokemon decor is otherwise identical to their retailer counterparts. However, demand can often be high for these toys, so those who really like Dragonite or Marill should make sure to grab one as soon as they can.

The Variety of Pokemon Plush Toys

When it comes to Pokemon plushes, there’s plenty of toys to choose from, including those from Squishmallow. Squishmallow Pokemon are a bit unique in that they have a rounded body and are a more stylized representation of some of the most recognizable Pokemon. However, for fans who want something that’s a little more accurate, there are plenty of options available from The Pokemon Company. Some of these are little and perfect for kids or to use as a decoration, but not all of them stick with “pocket” inspiration of the Pokemon series.

There are plenty of huge Pokemon plush toys as well, including a giant Slowpoke plush and a huge Snorlax plush. These take up a lot more space in a home and cost a lot more as well, but for some fans, it’s well worth it to celebrate their favorites from the series. There are even stranger options that still fall under the cuddly plush style, like a Gengar with an extended tongue that fans can take a nap on.

Classic Pikachu Squishmallow Plush

If you’re trying to catch ’em all, there’s no better place to start than with arguably the most famous Pokémon of all! This classic Pikachu features a soft and fuzzy version of everyone’s favorite Electric-type mouse, and measures in at 10 inches. It’s incredibly detailed and even includes Pikachu’s signature lightning bolt tail!
Gengar Squishmallow Plush

This mischievous-looking Pokémon is great for fans who want a plush that’s less cutesy, but still iconic. Gengar is one of the most beloved Pokémon, and this 10-inch Squishmallow is perfect for those Gengar fans who want to add another version of this Shadow Pokémon to their collection.
