Pretty self-explanatory as to what this page will be...

• Poké plush: Mainly from the Pokémon fit (known in the US as sitting cuties) collection, but I do have a couple from the old "My Pokemon Collection" (MPC) collection, and a few other random plushies from lines I don't remember
• TCG cards (and maybe tcg adjacent stuff like the coins)
• Videogames (all are JP versions): Loose copy of White, complete copies of X, UM, and Shield
• Books... 4 game guides, 1 art book, and 5 (BW/B2W2) doujinshi. And counting. And none are R18 because porn is lame and I like seeing fun fanon interactions between characters. The BW games pale in comparison to some doujinshis of Hilda, Hilbert, Cheren and Bianca all hanging out ngl.
• Other miscellaneous merchandise: keychains, figurines, other miscellaneous flats and trinkets... the B2W2 CD's fall under this category.

So I mostly collect BW/B2W2 era merch. Here are the characters/Pokémon I'm actively collecting for:

• Purrloin & Liepard
• Panpour for some fucking reason???
• Yamask & Cofagrigus
• Swirlix & Slurpuff
• Ghetsis (yes the piece of shit megalomaniac)

And some characters/Pokémon I'm "passively" collecting for:

• Deino, Zweilous & Hydreigon
• Pawniard & Bisharp (haven't quite warmed up to Kingambit yet)
• The Snivy and Oshawott lines
• The Kyurems
• And a couple other Unova & Kalos 'mons that I like but won't mention for now for brevity's sake. It's not like I have that much money, you know.

Writing it all out makes it sound like a lot... I'm not stalking Ebay 24/7, I swear (just Mercari JP heehee). If I'm being completely honest, I'm really only actually actively collecting for Purrlion & Liepard and Ghetsis at the moment. The reason I put Yamask & Cofagrigus and Swirlix & Slurpuff up there too is because there are some specific pieces of merch that I'm on the hunt for to sort of 'wrap up' my collection of them. In terms of all of the "passive" collecting, those are moreso just Pokémon that, if I find a good deal on something I like I'll buy it, but they're not the priority for when it comes to collecting. If I miss out on a piece of merch that I like, it's really not the end of the world. It's not the end of the world for the Pokémon I'm actively collecting for either, but it's definitely a lot more of a disappointment. Really, the only thing I get a bit upset about if I fumble it is Ghetsis items, but in my defense they're decently rare and hard to come by for a decent price.

Ok, I need to dedicate some time to properly photograph what I own one of these days, but for now I think this'll be fine. Starting off strong with all of the Poké plush:

Still need to snap a pic of the art book and doujinshi, but here are my game guides:
