Why Are Pokémon Toys a Great Gift for Fans of All Ages?

Pokémon is an iconic franchise that’s popularity spans across all ages thanks to its enduring appeal. With a mixture of cute and fearsome characters with unique abilities, and new generations of the battling beasts constantly being added, people have been collecting them for nearly 30 years. And with so many now, there’s bound to be one that connects with you.

They also come in so many forms, from Nintendo Switch videogames to cuddly Pokémon plush toys and awesome action toys, that you can catch ‘em all in the way that suits you.

What Are the Popular Pokémon Series and Characters?

Pokémon’s mass appeal means that almost all of its releases are incredibly popular. However, there are some characters and figures that you may recognise more than others.

Pikachu has been the face of the franchise for some time, and this adorable electric mouse Pokémon has been front and centre of many games and TV shows. The loyalty that they show has always been a big part of why they are beloved by many. Likewise, the three protagonists of the original anime cartoon; Ash, Misty and Brock, are also extremely well known. Others may find Psyduck more notable thanks to his recent appearances in the Netflix series ‘Pokémon Concierge’.

But with over 1,025 Pokémon (a far cry from the original 151), plus different trainers and gym leaders who battle and collect these creatures, there’s so many great characters to choose from!
