Pokémon Reveals New 'Holiday Helper’ Plush Collection With a Christmas Tree Pikachu and Clodsire Sled

Pokémon has revealed a new collection of “Holiday Helper” plushies.

Pokémon shared an image of the new collection across the company's social accounts earlier today. The image shows five festive Pikachu plushies in varying sizes, including a Pikachu with a Clodsire sled.

A blog post on the official Japanese Pokémon website offers a closer look at the new plushies while confirming that the collection will be released in local Pokémon Center locations on October 24. North American Pokémon accounts only confirmed that the new plushies are “coming soon” to the U.S. via the Pokémon Center, which dropped the first wave of its 2026 holiday collection earlier this week.

Pokémon Reveals 'Holiday Helpers' Plush Collection Coming Soon to U.S.

The biggest plush in the image is a chunky Pikachu dressed in a full Christmas tree outfit, complete with a little star on his head.

The smaller Pikachu plushies, which additional images reveal are actually keychains, have the Electric type making various expressions in a Santa hat. A sleepy Pikachu holds a small cookie, a cutesy Pikachu is covered in snow, and a particularly mischievous Pikachu is riding a Porygon.

At a glance, it looks like Santa Clodsire is his own plush, but the Japanese Pokemon site shows the amphibious Pokémon connected to a small Pikachu riding a sled.

The announcement doesn’t include any information about sizing or pricing, but most plush keychains available on the Pokémon Center are between 4 to 8 inches tall The smaller guys look like they’ll be on the shorter end of that spectrum, which the Pokemon Center generally prices under $20.

The largest plushie's rounded shape is giving Squishmallow, and the Pokémon Center is generally home to the 12-inch Squish models. However, given how large he looks in the reveal image, the Christmas tree Pika could be up to 16 or even 20 inches tall.

The Pokémon Center prices Squishmallows at $29.99, though its self-developed larger plushies can reach up to $79.99. (Without getting into the multi-hundred-dollar life-size collections.)

It remains to be seen whether these Pikachus (and Clodsire) are the full collection of Holiday Helpers, or whether additional Pokémon will get the festive plushie treatment. The announcement also doesn't clarify whether the additional collection items shown in the Japan announcement, like Tangrowth holiday sweaters, will be exclusive to Japan.

The Pokémon Center is home to a ridiculous amount of Pokémon merch, including ongoing collections like the Holiday Village figure series and, of course, some of the best Pokémon plushies money can buy. Fans can look forward to new releases in these collections each holiday season, in addition to more general merch drops throughout the year.
