Fennekin (フォッコ)

"The Fennec Fox Pokemon"

As it walks, it munches on a twig in place of a snack. It intimidates opponents by puffing hot air out of its ears.

This may be my newest collection, but my love for Fennekin stretches back to 2013! This pokemon and i have a long and complicated history; so complicated in fact that it hid itself from me for a long time.

As silly as it sounds, to be able to work to grow this collection - and appreciate this 'mon in general - is a mental accomplishment for myself. This collection belongs to Fen, who hopes to slowly build on to it indefinitely!

Fen's note: As of early 2023, this collection only consists of a few plushes to start with - because a certain part who runs some of this site trashed my childhood Tomy plush years ago, LOL. This is my chance to rebuild that and have something uniquely my own. We'll slowly build this up with more diverse items in the future!

Plushes

New Years Face Cushion Plush

Made by: Pokemon Center

Released: New Years 2014

Bought from: US Mercari

This is the softest and biggest plush in my collection as of right now, and I'm very pleased to own this one! This plush was only sold in Japanese Pokemon Centers on January 1, 2014 as part of a "lucky bag" set. As a result it's a little harder to come by, but I got this one at a decently discounted price - and the seller even included the next plush on the list for free!

My Poke Collection Plush

Made by: Banpresto

Released: ???

Bought from: Us Mercari

This was a free gift with the New Years Cushion plush, and I couldn't be happier! She's missing her tush tag, which is a shame - because I particularly like this plush's tag - but it's okay. This plush is so cute! I love her face and her cute little legs. This photo doesn't show her off very well, though.

2014 Pokemon Amie Plush

Made by: Banpresto

Released: December 2014

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

This is one of the "sweetest" plushes in my collection. The fabric is a new one for me, and I initially thought that this was a softer but very pilled fur fabric. However, she's just unique! It has a nice texture that you don't get on many plushes. The Poke Puff she rests on is made of a different fabric that is softer and silkier. I really like this plush line.

2013 Pokedoll Plush

Made by: Pokemon Center

Released: December 2013

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

Who can resist the cuteness of a Pokedoll? This is definitely one of the softest of the plushes I currently have, and is definitely the most fun for me to carry out and about. She doesn't have her tush tag, but I don't mind. I love her cute eyes, and the fact they lack their usual shine almost makes her look a little spooky - especially when you can't see her little smiling mouth like this. I love it!

2014 Korotto Manmaru Plush

Made by: Banpresto

Released: April 2014

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

A very chibi, almost bobblehead-like plush design from Banpresto. She's made of a rougher fabric, but I love her silly short legs so much. I also like the ears on this plush in particular, though this particular photo doesn't show them off very well. This plush released in a set alongside Chespin, Froakie, Fletchling, and Helioptile.

2017 Korotto Manmaru Plush

Made by: Banpresto

Released: November 2017

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

Another UFO plush similar to the last one, but I prefer this one! I knew that I wanted her the second that I saw her big goofy head. You also can see this plush's big, open smile from fewer angles than the previous ones - which gives it a sweet and shy look which I really like. This plush released in a UFO catcher set alongside Tepig and Charmander.

Super DX Plush

Made by: Banpresto

Released: October 2013

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

One of the bigger Fennekins I own, and the only one with a tush tag still in tact! Her legs are so skinny, but I love her little paws. Her pose in this plush in particular is very cute and sturdy. I think that her face is a little goofy in this one, though - her head looks like it's been put through a fish eye lens. I also am not a fan of how the ear's fluff is just a flat piece of fabric here like the extra fur tufts on the rest of the body.

2013 Pokemon Center plush

Made by: Pokemon Center

Released: Some time in 2013

Bought from: Japanese Mercari

Finally, we have the original 2013 Pokemon Center plush. On the bigger side compared to some plushes, and I prefer her to the Super DX one. Although, her face is a tad squished as well. Pokemon Center plushes are always made with much softer fabrics than the Banpresto ones, which is nice.

Bootlegs

Small Thrift Shop Figure

Bought from: My local thrift store, 2/15/23

I got this figure while hanging out with an irl friend. The local thrift store has a gachapon machine with these figures in them for a quarter. When my friend and I each put a quarter in, I originally got a Slugma. When she put hers in, out popped this Fennekin! I couldn't believe it! So, we traded. She looks surprisingly okay for what I presume is one of the bootleg figures off of eBay, though I painted on her little black nose myself. A fun little memory!
