Generation I Pokémon Collection
Oh boy, the Generation I games. What can I say about them that hasn't been said? They're good, but they aren't perfect. Now, before Gen I fans get their knickers in a twist, let me say that Pokémon Red is my third favorite game in the series. It was my very first Pokémon game, after all, and the mascot of Red happens to be my second favorite Pokémon of all-time, with my all-time fav being exclusive to it. It has this nostalgic charm that many older Pokémon fans hold dear to.
Of course, there are also other games in the series that I love a lot more, because as mentioned, Red is my third favorite in the series. Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow are what they are. They are good for remembering the times when I was in middle school making friends with other kids who liked Pokémon. It was a phenomenon that spawned numerous fans and anti-fans who would deny liking Pokémon but still played it on the side. These are the games I could go back to and remember the summers I wasted away by playing nothing but my copy of Red and Pokémon Stadium. It was my first, real form of escapist fantasy that I wish I could become a part of.
As for the original 151 Pokémon, I love them. This generation is home to many of my favorites and I try to collect what I can get. The problem with collecting Gen I Pokémon is the age and rarity of some merchandise. Some items are almost impossible to find. It is a challenge but it is one I am willing to take!
Now, onto the Pokémon I collect from this generation!

#053 Persian
Japanese name: ペルシアン (Persian)
My favorite feline Pokémon! I love Persian! If she were exclusive to Red instead of the Mankey-line, that would have made Red the perfect game! Alas, she and the Vulpix-line were the only good things about Blue. I wasn't too fond of the other version exclusives in Blue. You have to wonder why they put a majority of the good Pokémon in Red.
Despite what little she got. Persian is part of my main collection. She has the honor of having a grail-status item that I am currently after! That's how much I love her!

This Kid has alluded me for a long time! She isn't really all that rare as I have seen her pop up for a good price multiple times. However, she is popular, and I always seem to miss out on getting her. My time to own one finally came in the form of an eBay auction. She is now a part of my small Persian collection, so I am happy!

#058 Growlithe and #059 Arcanine
Japanese names: ガーディ (Gardie), ウインディ (Windie)
I have always loved Growlithe and Arcanine but I was afraid to collect them. They are so popular that I didn't even want to touch their merch. Thanks to the Pokémon Time promotion that all changed! A lot of thanks goes to my wonderful friend syminka on LJ as well, since she got me a lot of the harder to get plush! That helps me a lot! Still, I just want to pace myself when getting merchandise of these lovely puppies. I am in no rush to get everything but I would love to have them as part of my main collection in the future!

I adore this plush! Probably because he looks closer to his game and anime counterparts than the previous plushes I have obtained. Also, more Growlithe plushes are welcomed,
If only he was made with a softer material... what could have been.
Regardless, if you love Growlithe, get one for yourself! He's such a well-made, lovable pup!

This plush is not soft AT ALL. Yet it is the least expensive of the Tomy plushes and the ones parents are likely to buy for their kids. Why can't Tomy make all their plushes soft instead of their deluxe plush that only adults can afford? Not only that, it's Growlithe! He deserves to be a soft plush for boys and girls everywhere!

Arcanine Pokémon Center Plush
I was NOT expecting this! The Pokémon Center actually releasing a PC plush that is not of a starter Pokémon or something sickeningly adorable like a basic stage mascot.
Picked up for me by the lovable syminka during her trip to Japan. I asked her to pick me up this little guy knowing they were being overpriced on places like eBay. She happily obliged and got me my very own puppy to call my own!
He is as soft as he looks! If only computers had feel-o-vision so you can feel the soft fur around his head, chest, and tail!

Arcanine Petite Mascot Keychain Plush
This was a fluke! I was looking for Arcanine stuff on eBay and this little guy popped up for $15! Since they were selling out fast, I wanted to get him before he skyrocketed in price.

Arcanine Pokémon Fit Series #1
Eevee Arcanine Hoodie Pokémon Center Plush- Mouth Opened
I just had to get my hands on these plush! These Eevee are imitating the Shishi or Komainu statues often seen at the front of Shinto shrines. These lion-esque dogs act as guardians of the shrine and come in two forms- a dog on the right of the entrance (considered male) with its mouth opened.
This plush is obviously the imitation of that statue

Eevee Arcanine Hoodie Pokémon Center Plush- Mouth Closed
The statues on the left of these temples and shrines depict a lion-dog with its mouth closed (considered the female). They also have one paw on a puppy, which this plush lacks.
No matter. These plushies were must-haves due to their adorableness and they featured one of my favorite Pokémon wearing the hoodie of another favorite Pokémon of mine.

Arcanine US 2017 Tomy Plush
Like the US Charizard plush, this was a deluxe plush that came in a box at a high price. I wasn't able to find this plush in my neck of the woods so I asked Syminka to do a run for me to get me this plush. I didn't want him with the box so that's why he lacks it.
Yes, he is as soft as soft can get!

Arcanine looking regal, as usual. I remember in an official Pokédex entry that he is a Chinese Pokémon. Hmmm... I take it he is based on the Shishi, which would explain his lion-like features and guard dog tendencies. Also explains his regalness.

#131 Lapras
Japanese name: ラプラス (Laplace)
Oh Lapras. I'm so sorry for weeding your stuff in the past. Yes, a while back I had to do a weeding sale of my Lapras items. Boy howdy, weeding sales are no fun to do. Still, I take great pleasure in that they went to wonderful homes! I wouldn't trade making the buyers happy for anything! She is a great Pokémon who has a lot of fans! She deserves all the praise she gets!
Now I am in the slow process of rebuilding my Lapras collection all over again.
Lapras has been a long time fave of mine. She has to be my favorite Water-type overall, Heck, not only Water-type, but Ice-type as well! She is no slouch in-game! Her bulky stats and her Water Absorb ability make her a competitive favorite! Well, at least to me. I use her in online play all the time, and she has made a lot of people rage quit on me! Yes, she's awesome! I love using my favorites in battle! Besides the games, she has a great assortment of items that I would love to get my mits on! Right now I am really after the Zukan figure! So elusive she is!

Lapras American Original Pokédoll
This was a find like no other! There was a weeding sale on Pkmncollectors that allowed me the opportunity to add this doll to my collection. Honestly, I thought I would never see this plush because of how difficult it is to find that isn't a bootleg. There are hundreds of these plush on eBay that are counterfeit and it's difficult to know which plush are authentic and which ones are fake through one photo.
Fortunately, the seller was Godudette; a collector and friend who is very knowledgeable on Pokédolls. I promise that this plush is very well taken care of and will forever be in my delicate care!

Lapras American Pokémon Center Plush
I was going to purchase the Japanese plush but it was sold out and the ones on eBay were ridiculously expensive. So, instead of spending $300 on a Japanese plush, I went with what was sold on the Pokémon Center online shop. No regrets! This plush is very well-made and I am little surprised by that, considering the plushes we get are lower quality than the Japanese plush. Maybe the American site is getting what Japan gets? You know, stuff that is good qualtiy, too? I hope so!
The tag is the typical black-and-white blandness that has been present since the days of Generation V. Still, the plush is pretty nice. The Japanese plush has been re-released and maybe I'll buy just because I like the tags better, and maybe to even compare the two plushes to see if the American plush we are getting are getting better in quality or if it is just me wanting to believe that.

Lapras I <3 Marine Plush
One of the things I really hate about using a deputy service is not knowing how much the shipping cost is going to be. Sometimes the seller doesn't list the shipping prices (that, or I am missing something), and it's a real crapshoot if it's going to be cheap, reasonable, or expensive. I got bombarded with a high fee because of the shipping for this girl and if I had known how expensive the shipping fee was going to be, I would not have bought it. Regardless, when I won, I still had to pay.
Was she worth the high fee? I would say so. I paid the exact amount they sell her on eBay, so nothing was really lost there. It would have been nice to win her for a cheaper price, but I'm still happy. She is very soft and the soft colors are a nice touch!

Two down, two more to go!
One of them was a random pull out of a box, the other was purchased from syminka, who in turn purchased it from a second-hand seller. I know her. She takes incredible care of her collection.

It looks almost as good as new!

The second bookmark needed to complete my Lapras Pokémon Time bookmarks! This was a lucky find on eBay, and I won it without any competition.
As of now, I own all the Pokémon Time bookmarks of the Pokémon I collect with the exception of Growlithe. I want to own his bookmarks, too.

Lapras Character Stamper
I am not a huge fan of stampers, but Lapras is a must have! With the exception of the paint job, they did a decent job on her, although she looks a little bit chubby.

Lapras Sleeping Pichu Pokémon Center Postcard
Pichu is one of my least favorite Pokémon, especially the notch-eared variant due to the HG/SS advertisements really loving to shove that thing down our throats, but the way she is sleeping on Lapras's back looks really cute!

I wish the people in charge of Pokémon merchandising made more unique images like this one!

Lapras Anime Postcard
At first I thought the scene on the postcard was from an Orange Islands episode, but it's actually from the first season's intro.

Lapras Orange Islands Sticker #9
I will be displaying this and the two sticker cards below because of how much I like them! I have more of these stickers but these are my absolute favorites!
The Orange Islands season of the anime was Lapras' time to shine! I enjoyed the Orange Islands episodes a lot, and I wish the anime would have more non-game canon quests like that.

This and the Johto Dex charms are the same, but you know me! I like to collect some rereleases and items from different countries, too!

Lapras 151 Pokémon Center Badge
I would love to get this one mint in package but I have yet to see it come up for sale. Probably my favorite artwork out of all the badges that I have! I would also love to get the 2013 rerelease.

Lapras 151 2016 Can Badge
Why does Lapras always look good in every image she is in? Even when she doesn't have a happy look to her, she looks so elegant.
