In a move destined to delight fans worldwide, The Pokémon Company has announced the release of life-sized plushies featuring all nine Eeveelutions—Eevee’s iconic evolved forms—as part of its newly declared “Year of Eevee” campaign. The cuddly creations, which include Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon, Sylveon, and of course, Eevee itself, are designed to replicate the exact size and appearance of the beloved Pokémon from the games and anime.
A Dream Come True for Fans
Eevee, the fan-favorite Normal-type Pokémon known for its unique ability to evolve into multiple forms, has long been a cornerstone of the franchise. Now, collectors and enthusiasts can bring home their favorite Eeveelution in stunning detail. Each plushie mirrors the height and features of its in-game counterpart: Sylveon’s pastel ribbons drape elegantly, Umbreon’s golden rings glow subtly, and Vaporeon’s fin-like ears stand tall. The plushies are crafted with ultra-soft, high-quality materials, making them as huggable as they are visually striking.
Social Media Erupts With Excitement
The announcement, made via a whimsical video showcase on the official Pokémon UK Twitter account, quickly went viral. Fans flooded the replies with memes, emotional reactions, and photos of their existing Eevee collections. “I’ve waited 25 years for this—take my money!” wrote one user. Another joked, “My apartment is about to become a Pokémon Center.”

Specs, Availability, and Pricing
The life-sized plushies range in size from Eevee’s 1-foot stature to the larger Eeveelutions like Sylveon and Vaporeon, which measure up to 3 feet long. Pre-orders are set to open globally on November 1, 2024, with shipments beginning in early 2025. Prices vary by region, but estimates suggest each plush will retail between 400 USD, depending on complexity.
A spokesperson for The Pokémon Company shared, “Eevee’s versatility and charm resonate across generations. This collection celebrates its legacy while inviting fans to experience the magic of Pokémon in a whole new way.”
Why Eevee?
Eevee’s popularity has skyrocketed in recent years, thanks to its central role in games like Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee! and Pokémon GO, where its evolutions remain key to competitive play. The “Year of Eevee” campaign also hints at upcoming game updates, merchandise collaborations, and animated specials, though details remain under wraps.
For now, trainers eager to snag these plushies should prepare for what’s sure to be a high-demand launch. As one Reddit user aptly warned, “Gotta catch ’em all—before they sell out.”
