By now we've all probably seen (or even bought) that massive Snorlax pillow that swallows you into its belly for a sleep filled with peace and prosperity. But it's almost become a bit mainstream, a bit... boring. What you actually want, deserve, and need is a huge Garchomp pillow instead. 

The Pokemon merchandise realms have advanced quite significantly from just playing cards and the small-scaled Pikachu teddies of old, with Nintendo itself and other gaming-based stores making just as much cash in sales of merch and cosmetics as game figures.

Now, one of the best items of Pokemon merch has come to fruition, and it comes in the form of a snuggly dragon that is the same size as full-grown adults.

Premium Bandai Release A Huge Garchomp Pillow And It's Amazing

Garchomp might not be the most-loved Pokemon. In fact, he's probably in some people's third or even fourth tier of the Pokemon pyramid, but long-time fans of the franchise might remember Ash Ketchum soaring through the skies on Garchomp's back - proving the dragon mon is quite a firm friend.

So, if you fancy taking off into the clouds through your dreams, you might be interested to know that Premium Bandai has unveiled a five-foot-long Garchomp plushie. The pillow will be made for comfort and sleeping, and will release in February 2023 with pre-orders already open.

 

 

Garchomp Plushie Is Quite A Whack

If you fancy getting your hands on Garchomp's fluffy insides, it is going to take quite a chomp out of your wallet.  The Garchomp plushie is being sold at 57,000 yen, which equates to around $390. The plushie can also only be shipped to Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, and the United States. 

Nonetheless, the plushie comes in at a colossal side, and its 5-foot-9 wings will be perfect for snuggles. For those who think they've seen every flavour of Pokemon crisp or seen every McDonald's collaboration, a giant Garchomp pillow is the merch you never knew you needed.
