Those of us who are still playing Pokemon Sleep have been waking up to find Pokemon gathered around our Snorlax each morning for two years already, and a series of snoozing plushes was released to mark the occasion. The trouble is, they were only available in Japan on the anniversary itself, but now the plushes are available everywhere.

There are five sleeping Pokemon included in the collection - the Paldean partners Sprigatito, Quaxly, and Fuecoco, along with Dedenne and a log-hugging Bewear. All of them are adorable, but it's the Quaxly that stole the hearts of Pokemon fans when the collection dropped, as it's modeled after the bedhead style you can find in Pokemon Sleep.

That means not only is the duck Pokemon asleep like the other anniversary plushes, but the usually styled feathers on top of its head are all messed up, indicative of a good night's sleep. Although the other four plushes aren't quite as adorable as the scruffy Quaxly, each of them has little details that make them unique from their other plushes, aside from the fact that, again, they've all been modeled after styles from Pokemon Sleep.

Sprigatito is sleeping paws up, toe beans on show, and the Dedenne plush is gently cradling its tail. All five plushes are a little bigger than a standard Pokemon plush, too, measuring between 12 and 15 inches long, which makes them the perfect sleeping buddies. That does mean they are slightly more expensive than a standard Pokemon plush, too, though, costing $35.99 each.

As nice as it would be to wake up surrounded by Pokemon like the Snorlax in Sleep, I'm not sure I can bring myself to part with $175 so that I can have all five.

The five new additions join a growing collection of sleeping Pokemon plushes available at the Pokemon Center, dubbed the Pokemon Dreams range, that includes some very popular designs. While the most popular appears to be the sleeping Gengar, since it's the only one that's sold out, Cubone is the one that got the most attention when it was revealed. That's due to the tear embroidered into the corner of its eye and the heartbreaking reason behind it.

According to the product description, Cubone is dreaming of its late mother, and that's the reason it's crying. Pretty dark for a plush, but likely a tactic that worked. It had me rushing to the Pokemon Center to buy one, at least. If you don't want a sad or sleeping Pokemon plush, the Psyduck from Pokemon Concierge has been turned into the show's first plush, and it has posable arms.
