This is an embroidered plush from Pokémon Center. No felt to be found. Doesn’t get much higher quality than that. I think it’s safe to say that kids aren’t *really* the target for this plush.

Amateur. The best option was, clearly, to say “fuck it,” get the kids and wife cheaper things, and be happy with Popplio forever because once these suckers are gone, they’re gone. Priorities :)
