People do actually play but collectors, sneaker snipers, hypebeasts, cryptobros and investor faggots fleeing from magic are a problem. They’ve driven a majority of the playerbase to playing live or pocket because of things like the shitshow with 151 and prismatic evolutions where you’re basically just stuck buying singles. They’ve also driven a lot of game stores to the point where they’d rather not host organized play because they wind up getting pressed into selling prize packs to collectors and TPCI’s terrible ordering requirements for stores. The collector and scalper midwits like to rag on the game and tell people that no one plays it, but that’s because they’ve ruined it for the players.

It’s times like this I am thankful Konami reprints Yu-Gi-Oh into the ground constantly.

S:P little knight putting investor fags on suicide watch was funny. Konami knows that their game is primarily played by kids despite all of the adults so they also don’t opt for 3 different versions of the same card in the same set like pkmn and mtg do.

Sirknight is Gardevoir's Japanese name, to be fair.

Still, this thing is clearly being advertised for girls/women in Japan.

Meanwhile in the west, you just know a fuck-ton of guys are going to buy this because they treat Gardevoir as solely female because waifu culture.

In a way, its fucking bronies all over again.

I don't know, they did drop a life-sized Lucario plushie back in 2022.

I was going to say they're absolutely catering to furfags with these if they are the only life-sized plushies available, but thankfully there are a dozen or so massive plushies available.

They still probably are catering to furfags, but i want to believe otherwise. I don't exactly like the mental image of a children's toy company thinking "we should make sex dolls for people who want to fuck Pokemon".

Did we already forget the leaks? They know, hell they're probably the target audience too. It's happening, I am just waiting for a life sized Typhlosion plushie.

As soon as I saw this, I had to point it out. They know not what potential horrors they have unleashed with this product.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable life-size Lopunny doll to happen too. And would it be worse if they offered it in it's Shiny colors (Pink) specifically?

I've seen 1 or 2 people bring plushies at meetups, but at least one of them dressed up as Ash to justify it (They weren't being weird about it at events). I'll be seeing that Gardevoir in June, that's for sure (I'll be at Go Fest, since I'm close to it).
 
In another life, i could see myself buying a life-sized Serperior plushie. Or Quilava. I like Quilava.
