I am 25 and I collect Pokemon.
I have been a member of this lovely community since 2007, wherein I had actually originally joined only to sell some of my old items! I never planned on collecting. Back then, there was no sales permission!
My first post in the community (that wasn't deleted) was on December 6, 2007. In that post, I asked what Dunsparce items exist. I wanted to collect him.
Now, originally I wanted to collect Umbreon. This faded quickly when I realised the cost (back then it was less expensive, but the zukan was about $50 and I couldn't do that!)
So, I changed gears. I decided on Dunsparce, Porygon, and Parasect.
Porygon was the first of the three I stopped collecting, and I only stopped Paras/ect about maybe 2 years ago.
This, actually, was my very first Dunsparce item. The kid.
And this is my first recorded collection image. Back in February of 2008. Oh how small that started out!
Over the years, I have gotten and discovered some Dunsparce items. And now I am very certain I have a 100% complete non-flat collection.
So today, I bring you an amazing, wonderful update.
My first Pokemon toy ever, and my first Dunsparce toy ever, have helped me.
A wonderful package.
Wait, was that a Raichu?
Yes, it was. Raichu was my original first favorite and will always hold a special place in my heart. The Pokedoll was too adorable to pass up!
Is that?
Could it be?
IT IS!
Have you ever dreamed of Pokemon merch?
Maybe of something that doesn't exist, and you've settled happily into the reality that it will likely never be.
But you're okay with that. It's a pipe dream, but that's fine. There are talented plush artists that will help you see your dream.
And that's fine.
...but then, that dream comes true.
I never, since the day I started collecting, expected this day. I dreamed, I hoped, but I never expected.
When I got a message from
flag telling me to check the comm, this was the exact hope I had. I have this hope often, of some new Dunsparce item coming out, but it's always been just a dream.This time, it was real.
Ever since Timburr got a Pokedoll, I've discovered that the lovely companies that provide us with our Pokemon toys will throw curve balls at us, surprise us with unexpected Pokemon on new merchandise.
I really have no other dreams for Dunsparce merch. If they stopped putting Dunsparce on items from now on, I would be content. I have a plush.
Now, if I could only track down a cel...
