Pokemon Fit Volume 2 Release

Pokemon Fit Volume 2 Release

Hello everyone!

The second volume of the popular Pokemon Fit Pokemon plush series was released in Japan November 16th (Friday), the same day that Pokemon Let’s Go! Pikachu & Eevee dropped.

Pokemon Center Pokemon Fit Plush

The Pokemon Fit plush series included every single Pokemon from the original 151 list over two release dates – volume 1 plush went on sale back in July (see this post for Pokemon Center photos), and the remaining 121 Pokemon were included in this volume 2 release.

I love the Pokemon Fit series. The style is incredibly cute, the size is perfect, and it gives a chance for some Pokemon who might never have gotten plush to have their first plush.

I unfortunately don’t have photos of every single Pokemon included in this release, but here are some highlights from over the weekend!

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 1

Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Venusaur, Caterpie, Butterfree, Pidgey

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 2

Rattata, Raticate, Raichu, Nidoran♀, Nidoran♂, Clefairy, Clefable

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 2

Vulpix, Zubat, Gloom, Persian, Psyduck, Growlithe, Bellsprout

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 3

Ponyta, Rapidash, Gastly, Haunter, Onix, Krabby

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 4

Chansey, Tangela, Goldeen, Seaking, Mr Mime, Scyther, Jynx

Pokemon Fit Vol 2 – 5

Tauros, Kabuto, Snorlax, Dratini, Dragonair

What do you think of the Pokemon Fit / Sitting Cuties series? Which Pokemon is your favorite?

Until next time~
