The fan, who goes by @ThimblesThread onX, tweeted some plush designs based on a pattern by @NazFX_Studios, which quickly gained traction on social media.
“I don’t want to be dramatic but if I don’t obtain fat Ho-Oh in my lifetime it will all have been a waste,” said one eager trainer.
After the Ho-oh post went viral, plenty of fans requested a Lugia version as well. As it happened, the plush makerpostedthe version they’d made two years ago.
“This post has a lil too much traction for me to repost but for anyone curious here is the Chonk Lugia lol,” they said.

While Pokemon has plenty of official merch thatincludes plenty of plushies, it seems many trainers are desperate to get their hands on these unofficial chunky birds.
While the artist isn’t currently selling these plushies, theyclaimedto be “selling more Ho-ohs online come June/July,” so interested trainers should keep their eyes peeled if they, too, have fallen in love with these round Pokemon.
