I thought we would have another uneventful Friday with no updates, but the Pokemon site decided to wait until the moment I left the house to give us news, because they’re nice like that.

I can’t complain much with a Darumaka Pikachu plush that looks as adorable as this, though!

The official announcement for the December Pikachu Pair plush also came out today. Both Pikachus are ready for some action on the slopes and look especially adorable with their little snowboard.

The Mario Pikachu promotion comes out tomorrow so expect an actual Pokemon Center Report from me either tomorrow or the day after!
