This Pokemon Gengar plush features a massive tongue you can sleep on

Outside of Lickitung, it’s safe to say that Gengar is the Pokémon most closely associated with the Lick movement, and this fact is represented in a brand new Sleeping Companion, sourced from Premium Bandai! The Sleeping Companion looks like one of the many Pokémon plush toys currently available, but with one glaring difference: a giant tongue that can stick out of its mouth! The tongue is about five and a half feet long, so some fans can sleep on it with their heads placed in Gengar’s gaping mouth! When it comes to Pokemon merchandise, this one is unique, to say the least!

Below are pictures of the sleeping companion.

Pre-orders for the Gengar Sleeping Companion are available on the Japanese version of Premium Bandai, but they do not appear to be in place in the US version of the site, as of this writing. As such, it’s impossible to say exactly how much the item will cost fans in the region, but the plush sells for 円 25,950 on the Japanese site, which works out to around $ 250. That number will likely cost a lot of Pokemon fans who might be interested in a Giant Gengar Tongue Bed, but when will you get the chance to purchase a Giant Gengar Tongue Bed? This just might be a once in a lifetime franchise opportunity for Gengar fans!

Since the release of Pokemon red and green in 1996, Gengar was easily one of the most popular Pokémon. As one of the few Ghost-type Pokémon in the game, Gengar (alongside Gastly and Haunter), quickly won the hearts of fans of the franchise. In the 25 years since the game’s release, the character has received a plethora of merchandise from The Pokemon Company, including scale models, t-shirts, cards, figures, and more. In this period, however, the character has never had anything quite as cool as this sleeping companion. It’s immediately one of the most interesting pieces of Pokémon merchandise of all time, and it’s one that die-hard fans will find it hard to refuse!
