This is my Blastoise. My dad won him for me out of a claw machine at Circus Circus in Las Vegas. I must have been 7 or 8 so it must have been 99 or 2000. Around 2007 we lost pretty much everything in a big house fire. This Blastoise and a Bulbasaur keychain that has been chewed up by my childhood dog Henry were the only things of mine to come out ok. The Bulbasaur keychain reminds me of my dog so I always kept it close. My dad died a few months back, so I’ve been looking at this Blastoise a lot more lately. That’s about the long and short of my blog post, thanks for checking it out. Post Pokédolls.

>>56458320God must have saved your Blastoise as a ray of hope for you.
Why didn't your Blastoise put out the fire? Was he stupid?

>>56458320I have a similar story.There was this Charmander plush I saw online, that I was so obsessed with, I had my parents import it from some sketchy website in Japan.It was very expensive to ship back in the early 2000s, but they went out of their way to set money aside for it.I had Charmander for about a week before my friend from school came to visit and rubbed Charmander all over his balls.I had to throw Charmander away.

>>56458320My condolences
Reminds me of winning a Togepi doll at an arcade when I was a kid. I remember how excited I was to win something and when I showed my dad he took it and farted on it before giving it back to me saying "Togepi went to sniff my butt"
>>56458320I don't have any pokedolls/plushies to post, but I hope things have gotten easier and better for you, OP. The first month is generally the roughest...
>>56464923>>56463011Your friends/family sound demented
>>56459530And here I thought nobody ever won anything out of those things
>>56458320reminded me of when I pulled a Blastoise pokemon stadium promo tazo from a pack of chips also in 2000 and similar age. Was one of my fondest memories and I still remember how the chips tasted and how happy I was to get it.
I'm sorry about your loss, OP. Keep your dad close
