DC8 only wants 2 things for Christmas
A cuddly toy that an American influencer invented and now no longer exists and a pokemon beanbag chair.

I've trawled the Internet to no avail and can only find this site but not convinced to.pay 66 quid for a cover only.

But tbh, id be slightly worried that this was all an 8 yo wanted.

How has he learned about an American influencer?

Doesn't he want any toys? Board games, lego etc?

Are you genuinely shaming a CHILD for wanting two entirely normal, age appropriate things for Christmas? A toy and a Pokémon bean bag - I honestly cannot see what you're finding fault with there. Or are you trying to insinuate the parent has failed their child in some way? Your post is utterly ludicrous and judgemental.

And sorry OP, no idea about a beanbag, but will come back and comment if I see anything good!

I would try Etsy.

My son was exactly like this at his age. Everything was about YouTubers and I used to buy things off eBay and Facebook sites plus Etsy

If you can't find anything I would buy a Pokémon duvet cover and ask someone to make a beanbag cover for you and buy the stuffing from Amazon

Let me guess, is it a snorlax beanbag?

What cuddly toy are you looking for?

Coqueta · 06/10/2023 18:59

@AndrewGarfieldsLaptop any pokemon beanbag will do

This is the cuddly toy - its a name up pokemon by a youtuber / gamer

And as for the wannabe parent shamer, shame on you. my child isn't greedy so has only asked for 2 things and has an excellent vocabulary due to pokemon

@ThereItIs1 you totally get it

@TheLightProgramme thank you!!!

Aww Pokémon are fab, my DS was obsessed by them as a child and still is as an adult. Before people start insinuating that there's anything "wrong" with him as a result of his Pokémon habit, he's a really good software engineer, who earns a fortune and is buying his own house at 22. He also has loads of friends and a partner.
Ignore the judgey ones OP.

Not quite what has been asked for, but I bought DS a giant Snorlax beanbag from Amazon 2 years ago. It was a massive hit and is still used regularly. It is huge though!

That's what i was going to recommend as we have it!

Also OP, Pokémon is a fantastic thing for a child to be interested in. Teaches reading for a start, how to care for animals, the environment etc. I'm nearly 40, and I have always been a Pokémon fan. My husband and son love it too. My husband recently sold a Pokémon card for £140!

As for the plush, you might be best contacting a seller on Etsy to make one.
