Re-Ment Terrarium Dreaming Case #2 Series Figures

After 1 6 month wait, the Re-Ment Terrarium Dreaming Case #2 series was released in Japan.

Series #2 contains Eevee, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon & Sylveon. Together with series #1 that was released back in April, 2018 and contained Eevee, Flareon, Vaporeon & Jolteon, this completes the full line of 9 Eeveelution figures (plus 1 extra version of Eevee).

Each figure is in an adorable sleeping pose and comes in a plastic capsule that opens. The figures were randomly inserted in boxes, so it was a surprise to see which one you would get.  This is the latest in many series of figures made by Re-Ment company.

Due to popularity, these figures usually sell out quite fast at the Pokemon Centers in Japan, but of course you can always buy them directly from Japan from Pokevault while supplies lasts.

Dont miss the opportunity to complete this absolutely incredible set of Eeveelutions!!!

Pokemon Center All 9 Eeveelution Standing Plushies Released In Japan

The Pokemon Center made a surprise release of all 9 Eeveelution standing plushies. These were not announced on the official Pokemon Center website, so it was a wonderful surprise.

Some of you may recognize these plushies from back in 2012 when the Pokemon Center released all 9 standing plushies (Eevee, Espeon, Flareon, Jolteon, Leafeon, Sylveon, Umbreon & Vaporeon). These are very similar, but with some small differences unique to each plushie.

For example, lets take a look at the Flareon plushie.


2018 Version

2012 Version

For the most part, they look relatively the same. Apart from the obvious tag being different, the orange body color seems darker in the new version and the yellow fur is also quite different. The eyes and ears are also slightly different as well. The 2018 version seems to also be just slightly smaller than the 2012 version.

These Eeveelution plushies were released during Obon Holiday in Japan, so they will sell out extremely fast. Make sure that you order yours today on Pokevault before they are gone for good.

2012 Japan Pokemon Center Eevee Collection Goods

Sorry for posting this so late, but there have been alot of wonderful “Eevee Collection” merchandise released at the Pokemon Centers in Japan. The Pokemon Centers are releasing merchandise in 4 different rounds. So far round one, two and three have been released with round four due out in early December.

 Some of the first merchandise to go on sale were the Takara Tomy eeveelution plushies. They released all 8 of the eeveelutions (Eevee, Espeon, Flareon, Jolteon, Leafeon, Umbreon and Vaporeon). These 8 plushies were sold almost exclusively at the Pokemon Centers in Japan. Amazon Japan sold the Eevee plush, but not any of the 7 others. There was a very very limited number of toy stores that also sold them. These plushies are in the sitting position.

They are very detailed and well made. Most of them are about 6-7″ tall (15-17cm).  They come with a new special re-designed Takara Tomy paper tag that features the Eeveelution on it. They are relatively soft but are nice and sturdy and well made.

Round two was a huge release of merchandise.  The Pokemon Center was absolutely crazy. People were pushing and shoving to grab any and everything that they could find. There was a “Pokemon Center” version of all 8 plush characters. This time it was a standing version. Like the Takara Tomy plushies, the Pokemon Center Eevee plushies also had newly designed very large paper tags in addition to a long white “Eevee Collection” tag. These plushies are slightly smaller than the Takara Tomy version, but are much softer and have better detail. They are very similar to the canvas plushies that were sold a couple years ago, but are bigger.

All 8 characters were also made into a set of a coaster and a placemat. These were highly sought after and sold out immediately. They are made of nice fabric. The coaster matches the placemat. Each eeveelution was also featured on plastic cups. These cups are awesome. They are made of melamin which is a type of hard plastic. They are very sturdy and the Eeveelution image seems to be printed or painted on the cup, so it will last a long time. There was also a bowl and plate set that also sold out within minutes.

One of the best items was the Eevee plush cushion. It is perfect to put on your bed or lay on when you watch tv. Its absolutely stunning. I really recommend it.

All 8 Eeveelution mini Pokedoll plush keychains also went on sale the same day. They are perfect to attach to your keyring, suitcase, purse or just about anywhere. Very cute small versions of the Pokedoll plushies that were sold a few years ago.

There was also a vanity bag and a mini pouch that featured all 8 Eeveelutions. One of the most popular items was the Eeveelution lap blanket. It was a small blanket made to put on your lap or for a very small child. It was made in very limited quantity and was gone within a matter of minutes.

Each of the 8 Eeveelutions was also featured on a clear file folder. Its been 3 years since the last Eeveelution file folders were released, so this was a nice surprise. The file folders are size A4 which is the same size as a normal 8.5 x 12 sheet of paper, so these are great to use at school.

There was also a limited edition cookie tin that came with Eeveelution shaped cookies, three different Nintendo 3DS cartridge cases and a Nintendo 3DSLL Eevee silicon cover.

The third round of goods from the Eevee Collection was Pokemon TCG card gaming supplies. There was an Eevee deck box featuring all the Eeveelution characters and three different sets of Eeveelution deck sleeves. The deck boxes and sleeves sold out in less than 15 minutes with hundreds of people grabbing as many as they could before they were gone.

There was also an Eevee Collection 3 ring hard cover type binder that you can store your cards in. The binder also came with 8 limited edition Eeveelution promo cards. The Eevee one is a holofoil and the other 7 are not.

The 9th card will be given away on December 14th with the release of the two new booster pack series.

Also, while supplies lasts, if you bought 2000 yen or more worth of Eeveelution items, you received a limited edition Eeveelution postcard.  Eevee, Espeon, Flareon, Glaceon, Leafeon, Umbreon and Vaporeon were all featured as well as a the mystery postcard which was a group shot featuring all 8 characters. These postcards are real postcards which can be used. Of course they require a stamp in order to be sent.

Stay tuned for part 4 of the Eeveelution merchandise.

Espeon The Psychic Pokemon

By Anonymous

Eevee is by far one of the most popular Pokemon in the, well, Pokemon World of course! This is because of the simple fact of Eevee having over seven different evolutions. Eevee is just a normal type Pokemon, Jolteon is just an electric type Pokemon, Flareon is just a fire type Pokemon, Vaporeon is just a water type Pokemon, Umbreon is just a dark type Pokemon, Espeon is just a psychic type Pokemon, Leafeon is just a grass type Pokemon, and Glaceon is just an ice type Pokemon. What do all these have in common? Eevee! They all evolve through Eevee with an evolution stone, friendship or level up by a special rock. One of these Pokemon we’re going to take a look at is Espeon.

Espeon has four legs, much like a bigger for of Eevee, but has a lavender color. It has a red circle on it’s forehead which most likely symbolizes it’s psychic Power. Espeon also has a long fork tail, sort of like a reptile’s tongue. Espeon’s eyes are just a light purple, a bit darker then the lavender color on it’s body. Espeon has long ears, sort of like Pichu, but they are lavender and light purple on the inside. That is just a basic idea of what an Espeon looks like. Espeon is also fairly popular in battle because it has the strongest special attack stat of all the Eevee evolutions, except for maybe Glaceon who has high speciall attack as well. But Espeon has a bit more speed then Glaceon so it even outs.

My Perfect Pokemon Partners

By Becca Mander

An integral part of the Pokemon adventure is the team you carry with you, to support you and share your journey. I should think that at some point, most enthusiasts will have thought about their perfect Pokemon team – for video game competitors, it’s all about the ‘sweepers’, the ‘leaders’, the ‘walls’; basically the reduction of your team into key cogs in a well-oiled, efficient machine. A gamer might play Chandelure for his awesome special attack stat… but he may in reality hate the sight of Chandelure.

Card gamers want three things: consistency, consistency and, of course, consistency. This leads them to play multiple copies of the same card. In a Resiboar deck, your ‘team’ of six may end up consisting of two Reshiram, an Emboar, a Cleffa and two Ninetales. Wait, don’t I remember reading that Reshiram is a unique Pokemon? So how come two exist in this trainer’s party? And there really seems to be a fiery theme happening here – what happens if an opposing trainer lets loose with a devastating Hydro Cannon during a spontaneous battle? While these problems are unlikely to cause any stress in the card game, if Pokemon were real, they are things I would certainly consider before selecting my trusty team of six.

So, disliking the reification of the video game, and the lopsided parties of the card game, I ask myself, and everyone else: ‘If Pokemon were real, who would make the cut for your team?’ Here’s mine.

The Amazing Evolutions Of Eevee Part 2

By Jo

Growing up, I was fascinated by the Eevee. The tiny little bundle of determination could really pack some power away and had the most variety of evolutions. And as time passed, there just became more and more evolutions.

When the second generation of Pokemon came out, so did two more Eeveelutions. Espeon was one of them. Espeon has very feline features, from slim legs and tiny paws to a slender, forked tail. The scarlet gem on its forehead it meant to symbolize its abilities, though it often leads to Espeon being mistaken for being related to Persian. Espeon is the only Pokemon Eeveelution not to have a type advantage against another. According to its pokedex entries, Espeon can read the currents in the air and predict its enemy’s actions. During this time, its forked tail quivers. It can also read the air currents to predict the weather. Apparently, Espeon is extremely loyal to any trainer it deems worthy and has a great deal of love and trust for them as well. It is said to have developed psychic powers in order to protect its trainer from harm. Espeon’s name comes from ESP, or extra-sensory perception, which is a branch of psychic abilities. Like all the other Eeveelutions, its name ends in the suffix ‘eon’ (which is short for “evolution”) Eevee is able to evolve into Espeon when it reaches a certain amount of happiness during the day.
