Ditto has been a busy Pokémon, attempting to infiltrate the video game giant's plush brand and the Pikachu-centric parade in Yokohama. There's something about the creature's simplistic facial expression that appeals to fans, and so his stealthy merchandise domination continues with more and more variants. Pokémon Centers caught on to the craze and went a step further, imaging if Ditto could transform into everyday household goods. The result is sure to please fans of pink, amorphous Pokémon.
The line of goods will take over Pokémon Center locations on October 28. The line includes a knapsack, slippers, coin purse,and u-shaped pillow (pictured above), and cookies, standard stuffed plush (pink), a pass case, zip-up hoodie, stuffed hat, thermos, Japanese-style tea cup, drinking glass, smartphone case, tote bag, and squeeze mascot (pictured below).

The Pokémon Center Online store will also restock the popular giant stuffed Ditto plush. It measures 43cm high and 65cm across (approximately 17in high, 26in across). The giant plush retails for 13,000 yen (US$116). The plush is made-to-order and will ship in February.
