立体ポケモン図鑑 ライチュウ・ピカチュウ・ピチュー
"Pokemon Zukan" Pokedex Figure
Series

Japan 2004
Yujin Gachapon
This Pokemon Zukan collection of 1/40th scale Pokemon figures is one of
the coolest things someone can collect. Here is the Raichu, Pikachu and
Pichu from it. See how big Raichu is? See how big and fat he is?!?!
This is from one of the
oldest, rarest sets of zukan that is now very hard to come by. |

Raichu Authentic
Production Cels/ ライチュウ セル画
from Ep. 14 "Electric Shock Showdown"/ 第
14話 「でんげきたいけつ!クチバジム」より
 
Japan 1997
So........ how much better can it get than this?
I owned stacks of sketches from this episode already, and to be
honest, I thought that would be as good as it got, and I was happy and
content to own the sketches only -- works of hand-drawn art by the
animators, and BASICALLY exactly what hundreds of thousands of people
around the world have seen in this episode. Yet... not EXACTLY what you
see on your screen. Those are the hand painted animation cels.
To be honest, I never ever thought I'd find Raichu. Most Pokemon cels
are destroyed or kept private by the studio, and unless you're after
characters who appear in every episode (Pikachu and Ash, Team Rocket,
etc), you'll have an extremely difficult time finding a specific
character or Pokemon. In fact, since August of 2002, Pokemon has been
all digital, ceasing hand painted cel production entirely, and making
sketches even more scarce.
Under these circumstances, to be able to own these gorgeous cels of a
character, Lt. Surge, who only appeared in one episode, and a Pokemon
who appears rarely in the anime, is a dream come true. They are famous
scenes, iconic images from the episode that made me love Pokemon, made
me
want to study Japanese, made me want to collect Raichu, and changed my
entire life in more ways than I could possibly write on this website.
To own these real pieces of it - the originals artwork from scenes that
have been viewed by people all over the world, a classic episode -
rather leaves me feeling speechless, to be honest.
Please
click here to see more
details about these cels, these most precious items in my collection!

Giant Tomy Plush Raichu

Japan/Europe 1997(?)
Tomy
Meet Raiceus, King of Raichu! He
is the biggest official Raichu plush ever (2 FEET TALL!), but we're
still kind of trying to figure out exactly where and when he was sold.
He is by TOMY, and his design is
similar to the Hasbro Raichu beanie. Back when
they created those beanies Hasbro used a lot of designs of already made
Japanese plush, and they were also the US distributors for TOMY goods.
Perhaps this fellow is linked between the two companies, or
a prototype of a toy never made for regular distribution. TOMY has been
known to create giant plush hardly anyone
owns
or has even heard of. Where did you come from, you
mysterious large TOMY plushies...? The world may never know??? Thank
you to a toy collector in Poland for this beauty.

KFC "Pokemon Puzzle Island" Raichu
Figure

Japan
2000 (?)
The second Raichu I got during a wonderful few months of incredibly
amazing Raichus! Well, I basically freaked out when I found this
Raichu's auction a mere 6 hours before it ended, after it had been up
for a week. It wasn't labeled "Raichu" and it was in an obscure kind of
category, so if I had been lazy in my searching that day... be still,
my heart! This is a 7 cm tall, incredibly adorable and
so-rare-I-didn't-even-know-about-it Raichu, in a pose unique to it
alone! Yes - no other Raichu is in this pose! Give me a kiss, darling
Chu, Pikachu isn't THAT fast!
Here are some details about this
promotion in Singapore, and this is
his base. So amazing!! |

Japan
1997/2008
I got these long before my dream cels, and thought to myself, has my
day as a true Raichu collector almost come? These are one of a kind,
actual layout sketches from Electric Shock
Showdown, Episode 14 of the Pokemon anime, Raichu's first animated
appearance, and four from Diamond and Pearl anime. They are not CELS,
but they are the pencil drawings done by
the animators. These sketches are they taken over by inkers and
painters to created the colored cels (or digital art) you actually see
in anime.
I am the only person in the world with these EXACT pencil drawings, and
I
absolutely had the best luck to even get my paws on them. They cost a
nice bit, but it is worth it. I am happy and honored to share with the
world these treasures, more glimpses into the world of the animators
who make a show we've probably all loved at some point in our lives!

It's....
it's Raichu's first ever Pokemon Center plush.....!! (;___;)!! What a
wonderful day!! My two favourite lines have now gotten canvas plushies,
it's beautiful! I absolutely adore this Raichu to bits and pieces, from
her soft colors to her cute brown eyes and widdle nosey!!! One of the
best Raichu plush - ever!!
The Raichu on the top right was signed
by the director of Pokemon, Junichi Masuda, especially for me, in

Inflatable Raichu (Inflateachu)

Japan
1996-1998 (?)
Festival Prize (?)
The first in a wonderful few months of incredibly amazing Raichus! I
spotted this dude on auction, but he was due to end right when I would
be over the Pacific, in a plane heading back to America for 3 weeks.
CRAP! I set up a few people to bid for me if my high bid was outbid (at
the moment I am not paying Yahoo!Japan so I have a high bid limit). I
landed, got home and checked - I WON HIM! Look how cute he is! An
ultra-rare inflateachu - and he is huge, as well! Around a foot tall -
if he were a plush he'd be one of the bigger Raichu plushies there is,
that is how big he
is
compared to everyone else.
Inflateachu,
you complete
me. I love you, baby!
After
finding a Pikachu of this same series, I found out this fellow might
have been a prize at various festivals in Japan in the late nineties.
Nowadays there are still Pokemon masks and prizes given out at
festivals, so this is very possibly where he came from!

Pokemon
Trading Figure Game Next Quest: Raichu
(#19 Uncommon)
Pokemon
Trading Figure Game Unreleased Set: Lt. Surge
(Details Unknown)

America
2006/2010
Kaiyodo
This
Raichu figure was always one of my favourites, and is one of the only
sculpted by Kaiyodo, who does all of the pre-order figures that come
out with various games as well as movie promotion mini sculptures, etc.
Their work is superb and it shows in this very unique Raichu! As for
Surge? He appeared in April of 2008 in this
photo from a toy fair, and
I screamed at one of my favourite characters of all time getting a real
figure! After waiting for over a year - long past the release date on
the site - the entire TFG line was cancelled, along with two entire
sets that never got released. It was some of the most dissapointing
news I've ever heard as a collector. Another year passed, and suddenly
figures from the set that never made it to shelves began to appear on
Ebay - looking utterly legit, right down to accurate attacks and stats
on each Pokemon for use in the game!! Surge? I squealed like a fangirl.
Despite uncertain origins, he is just perfect, and I am so
extremely
happy to have him in my collection!

Pokemon
Gym Badge Series (Vermillion
City Gym)
(This is the three badges IN the case) Mint in
plastic, it's my official
fangirlism for Lt. Surge
and his fat Raichu... a gorgeous tribute to the Lightning American,
basically, THESE PINS ROCK.
Other Japanese Thunder
Badges
Most
of these items are official Japanese Thunder Badges and rather hard to
find! The
round badges on the very bottom are from a set that included every
single
Kanto, Johto and Hoenn GL, the Kanto leaders getting two each (one set
from FRLG). They were TCG
League prizes one had to both earn and then mail in to get. Probably
most of the Japanese badges had to be aquired this way. The
golden badge is
extremely rare and high quality, and I have only ever seen one! The one
at the very top looks
to be the same as the badge in the Badge Series set, but it was
actually seperate, and is silver
with a different backing. Then there is the replica
Thunder Badge sold with a Gym Leader VHS and extremely gorgeous and
rare - the perfect badge! The full set can be seen below
with my VHS's.
Last is probably the oldest
thunder badge ever, with the set
having designs from original R/B, some obviously not even knowing
proper coloring yet!
USA Thunder Badges
The thunder badges on the left and right corners of
the plastic are the American TCG Indigo League Thunder Badges! The
first was the rectangular one given out in 2000, and the rounder one
was handed out in 2006. Yay!!!
The Lt. Surge postcard is the American POP scorecard. On the keychain
is the extremely rare Pokemon
Championship 2000 badge - made of hard solid metal and maybe the
last badge I needed for my collection!
Random Thunder Badges
The
pink plastic thunder badge (from an old Japanese board game, it had a
full Kanto set) and
thunder badge sticker is not a pin: but it felt left
out.
Awwwww... on the left you can also see my official Lt. Surge poster! You can also check out my custom
Thunder Badges here!

Takara Tomy
This is the brand new
remake of the original Raichu Tomy Figure (seen below). While that one
was remade again and again, released in many countries and by two
different companies, with no white tummy, airbrushed tummy, different
shades of orange and eventually a brand spanking new paintjob and
packaging in 2008, he was always the same guy - the same pose, size,
shape, face. His colors and companies changed but he never did.
Until now! In January 2010 Takara Tomy released Raichu's first ever
FULL remake Tomy figure - 12 years after his original one had first
come out!! His eyes are bigger, he's sitting upright, his head is
bigger and rounder but... let's face it... he still has his big ol'
adorable pawses!! Some things never change!

Over the years they have
continued making these, and their tummy
paintjobs change each time, some with so much white it goes to
their
mouth, some with a little white on the bottom, some with no white, and
the newest have a very defined white tummy patch and a very orange
color. The original Raichu figure, probably the first ever made,
are these Monster Collection Raichu.
Various
Packaging for these figures over the years!

This is the happiest Raichu in the world. It's all..... OH
MY RAAAAI!!!
Jakks Raichu was set to be released with the other D/P figures, but
they decided at some stupid moment to make him an EXCLUSIVE FIGURE only
available if you buy a HUGE FREAKING BATTLE
DOME. Yep! That's the only way to
get him. My good Raifriend Michelle snagged mine up for me, and she
will be repaid with Japanese Raichus beyond her wildest Raichu. YAY
HAPPYRAI !!!
UPDATE: Okay. It's been released in a battle
pack with Pikachu for a normal price. FINE THEN! It was also released
in a battle set with Pachirisu... but for some reason the one released
with Pachirisu has an unpainted mouth.
They are ALL like this. WTF?

Yay buttons! The 151 Badge from the Pokemon Center I'd especially been
looking for
for quite a while. Quite a while, let me assure you!! So cute, so
sleepy! The middle is an original can badge collection from the
original
Pokemon release. NEW ADDITION! Cute as pie Raichu and Pikachu badge,
rare as pie too! If pie were VERY rare. It's from a set called イチニッピカ
ピッ!ichi ni pika pi!), which featured Pikachu and the occasional
original
Raichu art!
You can
also see it somewhere else in this collection, know where? Anyway, the
set of buttons is so cute, look!
I'm sure there's plenty
more out there, so I'll have fun expanding my collection of Raichu
Buttons! Oh, that 3D button up there, well, he's from America, sold in
bookstores like Books-a-million and Barnes n' Noble... it's a bit
hard for me to believe that he is authentic, so for now he just gets a
place of honorable mention on the side :D Since he's too cool to ignore!
I also have lots of unofficial buttons too! Click to see.

anything they put up and listed it for 5000 yen. NO THANKS!! I didn't
bid and they slowly lowered it, a bit more each day. They even emailed
me to ask if I had seen it - giggle! Finally I did bid and he is mine -
such a sweet little fellow!! |

ライチュウ ジョウト・全国図鑑メタルチャーム
Raichu Johto Dex/National Dex Metal Charms

Japan 2009/2011
Pokemon Center
These are the cutest out of all hundreds of Pokedex Metal Charms!
The original Raichu (with one paw up) is of course from the
Johto Pokedex charm collection craziness
of 11/21/2009... never forget 11/21/2009!! The staff was unprepared for
the hoardes of people rushing inside when the doors opened, kicking and
punching as they fought to reach the coveted tiny pieces of metal. Did
they all want Raichu? I am not sure, but if they did not, I'm sure they
regretted it later. Raichu forgives them.
When it was time again to release charms, this time all 646 Pokemon in
the National Dex as of 12/2011, the staff were prepared, the masses of
humanity kept in control, and one could easily pluck a sweet Raichu set
of charms off the rack for themselves. Which is just what I did... and
now here they are for you to see. Do not miss their Lion brethren... and can you
spot ALL the Electric charms on the Electric
Collection page?

"1995 Style" Roundest of
Round Very Round Raichu Plush

Europe
Origins Unknown
LOOK AT THIS
POTATOCHU. JUST LOOK!!! Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Or King
Henry VIII? Or President William Howard Taft? How about just a pumpkin?
There are many things one can say about this Raichu, who I will call
"Raichu von Pokemon", which sounds fancy,
and also is what his
listing was titled. Raichu von Pokemon, you are a mystery of mammoth proportions. When Arceus
created you, he had a special plan in mind, one that did not include a
neck, or any reasonable amount of mobility. Raichu von Pokemon, you may
get from here to there by being rolled
along by a few Oompa Loompas, but my heart grew three sizes the day I
first laid eyes upon you. From all the trans fat. Please also feast
your eyes on his twin (on
the left), who has varied shades
of orange and yellow as compared to the original. Who are you and
why is your palette slightly altered, Raichu von Pokemon's twin?
PS: You win the prize for "Raichu
plush most resembling Raichu's original design", his Red/Blue
sprite. It's true -- Raichu really was originally a round blob with
limbs and ears. REPRESENTING.

HUGE and beautiful! He's 3.5 inches inches tall dude - not small! And
that long,
thick tail! Nice chu! He is also completely poseable, and made of the
same material as Pokemon zukan figures. His ears, arms and tail attach
to him like those too. Hmm.... from Yujin perhaps?

Please also look to your RIGHT to see my extremely rare, possibly one

tush and hang tags and completely perfect except for his accidental
orange ears. A very unique and rare addition to my rat pack!!
There are also unofficial fakey versions of this plush, one with
voicebox and
string, found in a crane game in Europe, and one from Taiwan with a
cutely halved mouth. Check them
out too! They are oddly quite different for being simple copies of
the same plush.

Wow!!! Check out this
adorable fellow!!! You wouldn't know it by looking at his cute ickle
innocent face, but this Raichu coin purse plush is one of the rarest
Raichu plush in existance! This Raichu is from a set that all had white
clips and color-coordinated straps and zipper pouches in their backs.
Despite having tags from Play-by-Play, Raichu's pattern, color and
style do not at all resemble the Raichu
clip plush
by the same company. Folks saw this set of plush for sale from Mexico
to Brazil, and like the PBP slippers and backpack (amonst others) being
sold only in Canada, this Raichu was only ever sold in South America.
Now he has arrived in my heart, on May 5th, thus he shall be called,

These
are plushies from Germany, who were
found
for me by a friend of a friend! They all had no cheeks or belly, so I
added
them on to the one guy for fun and left the ones on the left
as they
were.
The lack of cheeks and belly made me wonder about them, but a German
friend finally explained where they came from! They were prizes at a
festival in Germany when Pokemon Yellow came out there. They had
Pikachu and Raichu
amongst other unique plush as prizes. For now we know of three sizes:
Large (25 cm), Medium (17 cm) and Small (12 cm), along with dark brown
and light bright versions, each with distinct eyes, nose and mouth
shapes. I am sure there are even more out there,
and I am on a quest to collect them all! :D They are such an adorable
and unique addition to my collection, and also incredibly rare, same as
some other German-only Pokemon plush
we've also seen.
Some have said they are the cutest Raichu
plush
ever. Way to go, Germanchus! Gettin' all the ladies!

and his brothers. His tag's details can be seen below!

Play by Play "Traveling Fair" Novelty Toy
WOW!!! This guy is gigantic - see Pokedoll companion to get an idea! He
is also SO soft and fuzzy! And his
tail is almost 2 feet long, wowza! This might be the most huggable
Raichu in the whole world! He was my very first "Germanchu". His
origins were unknown,
because
this guy has his tag chopped off, however, the
matching
Pikachu I got with him had a tag, and it is for the company
Play-by-Play. Further research revealed a big chance he is one
of
a set of foot-tall very fuzzy plushies (probably prizes in amusement
parks) by Play-by-Play, which included this
mewtwo. When
Yellowchu (above) arrived, all the clues finally fell into place! Now
this begs the question: How many more hard to
find, adorable Raichu plush did they possibly make?! I eagerly
await the truth WHICH I SHALL UNCOVER!
Please view the photo below to see all three shades of Germanchu
together at last!

超太ったヨーロッパーライチュウのぬいぐるみ
Rather Fat "Big Ol' Butt" European
Raichu Plush

Europe
1999-2000ish
Meet
the Raichu with the biggest butt ever! He is yet another amazing
European exclusive Raichu plush -- though from what country in Europe,
we are not sure. The original owner's father traveled extensively and
brought her back many unique Pokemon plush from various countries, of
which Raichu was not the only one!
He is made of super soft, super fuzzy fur, and he joins the league of
Raichus with orange tails -- though most of the other orange-tails are
Japanese, not European. Because of his large bottom, I've named him
after one of my favourite improv comedians, Wayne Brady! Who used to be
very well known on Whose Line is it Anyway? for his big ol' butt B)

ピカピカほほ台湾のライチュウのぬいぐるみ
Happiest "Glowing Cheeks" Taiwan
Raichu Plush

Taiwan
1999-2000ish
This
Raichu plush from Taiwan was so
filthy, he was being given away as a freebie if you bought
something else. Of course I adopted this beautiful big boy with his
light-up red cheeks and flawless happy face! And of course I cleaned
him right up too, since when you have a unique and amazing new Raichu
plush you've never seen before, he deserves to be treated as a king.
His paw had glue residue, probably from a "Press Here" sticker, if the
others in this series are anything to go by.
As he is so happy and stuck in a perpetual state of laughter, his name
is "Drew Carey".
He is part of a series of Light-Up Cheek plushies, which also featured
Pikachu in a few sizes and fabrics. You can see some images of the
Pikachus in the series here!
Probably being part of this series is why his cheeks are red and not
yellow.

チュウ フラットフィギュ

Raichu Flat Figure (Burger King?)

South America 2001
The famous flat Raichu Figure, that looks like the KFC Figure above
after being run over. Not run over in the horrible bone-crunching way,
but run over like cartoon characters get run over and go flat. Thus...
flat Raichu! I have only ever seen this once, so I can assume it is
quite rare.
Based on a pamplet it came with, I can assume it is from Burger King,
but who knows for sure!? This is all the info I have on this series.
There was also a Meowth, Lugia, Gligar, and more!

ル製 ライチュウのあまけおもちゃ
Peruvian Raichu Cereal Prize Toys

Peru 2003 (?)
These Raichus are part of a series of prize figures from Peru that
includes dozens of Pokemon and a few trainer characters too, spanning
Generations 1-3. The red one is
called a "spoon" although it is more of a toothpick in my opinion. The
previous owner of these figures suggested they came from cereal, but
another Peruvian Pokemon collector thought they came from pasta. Pasta
prizes?! What kind of magical country is Peru, anyway?!

This stamp is in fact so rare, that I could not find it once in nearly
10 years of Raichu collecting. This series featured possibly all of the
original 151 Pokemon, but they are so hard to find now nobody can
confirm it! I finally got this baby when my friend Ridi found them
covered in a layer of dust ten years thick in a random little toy shop
in Kyushu (Southern Japan). WOW!!! Good friend - good stamps - amazing
find!! I nearly cried I was so happy! What an amazing addition to the
collection :D |

I cannot figure out why this item is so hard to find... the one I ended

Wow! What a discovery!!
This poor guy has been bootlegged all over Ebay and I had to search for
eight YEARS to find one that was real - and finally here he is, mint
from his package! Wow!! He was a KFC toy (there was also guys like
Poliwag -> Poliwhirl and Clefairy -> Clefable in the set) from
1999 in promotions that seemed to occur in most English-speaking Asian
countries like Singapore (where mine is from), Hong Kong and Malaysia.
He is just so extremely cute and I am SO glad to FINALLY know where and
what he is from, and own one with a complete tag and package set
including the original paper. The photos below show him as he was
packaged. The second guy I'm using in the photos is also official - but
had its tush tag cut off before I bought it, so I could still never
confirm where he was from or that he was even real. What a relief!! I
wanted to keep this cutie in my gallery and now I can do it with pride!

Australian crane games -- never in any other place to date! He is the

very orange angry Raichu
pin, very golden angry Raichu pin, Raichu/Pikachu stuck together pin,
and those two with the gold foil
backing are from Korea! How cool :D
The round Pokemon 2000 Collector's pin is from a set that did indeed
include all 151 original Pokemon! Raichu was tough to find, but here is
is with me forever, muwaha!
As a side note, the golden angry leaping Raichu pin is possibly the
rarest I own. For years a similar bootleg
Raichu pin
was floating around the internet and Ebay, but it was only ever a
bootleg made from some existing art and we assumed there was no
original pin. Well, tada! This is the real deal, and boy is it lovely!

did you come from little guy? What company made you, what store were
you sold in?
Regardless of uncertain origins, this Raichu and his rather rubbery,
squishy keychain brother, are some of the most adorable Raichus I own.

I debated and debated over whether these counted as a figures/toys and
not
a flat thing. I went with them officially being toys
because: 1. They are 3D Raichu that stand on their own. NOT FLAT! 2. SO
CUTE. End of argument. So there you have it! The smaller foam one is
actually incredibly rare, and we only discovered it recently! Very
happy to add it to the pack!! As for the blue pop-up card, thanks,
South America!

This figure not only shoots lightning bolts from its tail, but it's a
plastic model figure that comes in a box and you must snap out all of
the pieces and force them to fit together and I've had like three of
them and this is the only one that's actually had all the pieces fit
together properly!!! *pant pant pant*

Raichu Mini-Snowboard

America
X-Concepts
These skateboards were very popular during the boom in America, and the
snowboards came a bit too late to make the cut. Yet, here are the
Raichu versions of both! I do wish I had my original Raichu skateboard,
which I would skateboard on my desks in middle school, but what can be
done?
THIS skateboard is mint in package! Pikabellechu traded me the
skateboard and Michelle traded me the snowboard. Thanks, you guys are
awesome Raichu collectors as always! :D

Tags: America

I had the white dog tag when I was first starting to collect
Raichu, and it got lost in The Move, so I am very happy to have had it
traded back to me by Kari. The yellow dog tag was from Kelly (both from
the UK!)
Thank you so much guys!! The smaller tag is a Japanese-made tag that
changes from Pichu to Pikachu to Raichu. It's hard to see, so here is a good look at it! |

JR・7/11ポケモ

JR and 7/11 Pokemon Stamp Rallys--
Raichu Appears!

Japan1999/2009
Japan Rail and 7/11
This is a special treat!!!
Each summer in Japan the Pokemon Movie of the year hits theatres, and
so do dozens of related events. Some of those events are "stamp
rallies" where you travel to various train stations or convinience
stores collecting stamps in booklets to win prizes!
Up until now (2011) Raichu has only appeared in one feature film --
Movie 2, Revelation Lugia, shown in the foreground on a boat, unable to
go any further with the other Pokemon, while flying and water types
flew or swam towards the ocean. Somehow that tiny cameo led him to be
in the stamp rally! Not only is this a big honor, but this booklet is
extremely rare, but thanks to a friend who was a young boy in 1999
who's parents were cool enough to take him from station to station, I
can record this bit of the past for this site. Don't miss the blue
Raichu stamp from 2009's 7/11 stamp rally! He was not even in that
movie...?!?!

I wonder how many more Raichu erasers there are...? Exciting, right?

enough to think Pikachu would evolve, I was however very very curious
to see this, and they really did trick you into thinking it had for a

Welcome to my totally awesome Holiday Chus! As for the New Year's
items, these lovely things are actually some of the rarer Raichu
thingies I
have! The puzzle with all the Micey and Ratty pokemon you could only
get by
visiting the Pokemon Centers in Japan on New Years day, 2008! Year of
the rat, you know! The matching postcard was sold only at Pokemon
Centers that holiday season.
As for Christmas, here is a rare Raichu Christmas card, with original
Pokemon Center artwork, EEE so adorables!!! I just love it!! The same
art is on that Christmas box, which originally was sold with more
Christmas goods inside. Moving
right along with more original art (PS: almost all of this art is
completely unique to these holiday items!), is the extremely amazing Christmas Plate and
matching gift bag, from Pokemon Center 2005.
Plus the unbelievably cool Stationary Set
- mint in its own wrap! Featuring a wide array of popular Pokemon,
these items are highly sought
after, and I am very pleased to have them! I believe they are some of
the only items featuring that artwork.
Finally is the tiny Halloween Candy Box with Raichu!! It was a lucky
little find, but counts all the same to me! You rock, Raichu!!

I don't play the game, but I REALLY like
the art on the discs. The lions got QUITE a few before Raichu ever even
got one - then he did, and there was MUCH rejoicing!! Then wouldn't you
know it? A second (on the grey Pokeball) - and it is a promotional puck
too, not available for regular sale!
This art is unique ONLY to Battrio pucks, and it's some of the cutest
Raichu art around!

Raichu "Get
Coins" Set 2/Lucario Movie Set (Set of 4)

Japan 2005
Takara Tomy
This is a set of four differently colored
Raichu coins, that came blind packaged with two per pack! There was
also a keychain in each pack of two, so you could string them together
for whatever purpose. Each coin came in four colors; silver, gold,
bronze and full-color silver. Here is a complete set of Raichus, after
many years of trying!
What's interesting is this set was made for the Lucario Movie, with Lucario Movie packaging and most
of the Pokemon in the set being from the Lucario movie, like Mew,
Lucario, Sudowoodo, Weaville, Mime Jr, etc. Why Raichu? Or as Raichu
would say, rai Raichu?? Well, because he is Pikachu's evolution, and
Pikachu got a coin, so that's just logic, folks.
Lucario's coin has Aaron's staff on the other side instead of Riolu.
Because Riolu was not a thing yet, hoho!

counts! :D
And NOW! With big fat Raichu pen! From Europe! Amazering! ALSO! The
official RoseArt Raichu crayon! For the record, the color is "Golden

thing with four electrics is actually a mechanical pencil by Tomy. Who

We also now add a mint in package Stamp Pencil Toppers pencil with a

Thunderstone!" followed by flashing pictures of Raichu and Pikachu
screaming PIKACHUUUUUUU (shows how much the people who make Pokemon

There's a ton of t-shirts, long sleeved shirts, a vest, a jacket, and
overalls. So, what are you going to do with these children's clothes,
you might
ask? Well, I will be keeping them safe. Nothing creepy. Just going to
hoarde these clothes so that if my house is ever raided, they will
think I am a creeper.
Oh, there is also some 'do not want' clothing I should mention. I post
it here
merely for documentation. This is not a wanted item....no, seriously. As glad as I am
Raichu got some attention, I'm much gladder not hoarding children's
undies in my house. I'd prefer the people who may raid me ne day to be
confused, not sickened. You might not think so looking at my site, but
