Why do I love Palpitoad so much? He is fat, he wiggles, and he is so happy. He also turns into a frog. What's not to love? Yeah, he's pretty goofy-looking, but that's not his fault and it only adds to his adorable charm. <3
While Palpitoad is my favourite, I'll display the items from his other evolutions that I get here as well. Tympole plush are a side collection of mine. c:

MPC plush, short for My Pokemon Collection, are a series of palm-sized plush by Banpresto that come with a special code printed inside their tags. I haven't seen it for myself since it's Japanese only, but I believe you can enter the code into the website and virtually collect the Pokemon that you're already physically collecting in an online account.
So soft and tiny and fat. XD I waited for this plush for months so it's so nice to have him in my possession finally! He's really soft. I named him Meringue, which makes more sense when you know my Tympole MPC is named Lemon. XD

This charm is from the promotion the Pokemon Center held from December 2011 to February 2012, which featured a brand new charm released for each of the 646 Pokemon. The Tympole set was released in February with the rest of the Unova Pokemon.
THESE ARE SO CUTE. They were the set I was most excited to get, after Politoed. I was so eager to see Palpitoad in charm form.

I'm not sure what the promotion that features this artwork is called, but I've seen it referred to as "Pokemon in a tree" or just "tree" stuff. XD I really love this art because... well... LOOK! Not one Palpitoad, but three! I love the two in the tree. All three of them look like they're up to no good. :'D Adorable.
Trading Cards
Size: 2.5x3.5in / 6x9cm
Palpitoad line TCG from the Japanese Red Collection (leftmost column, top middle) and Reshiram EX Battle Strength Deck (rightmost column), plus one English Palpitoad from a deck I don't know. I love the art!
Playing Card

A Palpitoad playing card, from a deck of Black and White Pokemon-themed cards. That's it. c:
Paper Pog

Not a clue where this is from! But it's literally just a paper pog. The back is entirely white. I'm thinking it might be from some kind of game, judging by the dice and hand pictures on it.
Stickers
Size: 1-1.5in / 3-3.5cm
The top four stickers were cut out of a small Black and White sticker book sold at Toys"R"Us. The Tympole on the bottom left is from a sticker sheet from McDonald's, and the puffy Palpitoad sticker on the bottom right is from a Korean puffy sticker set.

This was a very sweet, spontaneous gift! I had no idea she was making it for me. ;u; He's incredibly adorable. Looking at him directly on, right in his big eyes is almost too much to handle. He's got the perfect design for a Palpitoad Pokedoll — round, round, round! XD
Custom Pin
Size: 1in / 2.5cm
A pin made by someone I unfortunately don't know! But it's really cute, albeit small. I keep it on my messenger bag with my other pins.

Tympole is from a Namco-only set, which are rarer than the usual MPC sets because they're sold only in the Namco store in Japan for a limited time. He's so cute in the palm of my hand! His name is Lemon since he's kinda like a little lemon... with a face.
Tympole Pokedoll Plush

Pokedolls are a unique line of small Pokemon plush distributed in both Asia and America. Their "chibi-fied" design is massively popular and there have been many Pokedolls made for many Pokemon. There are often minor (sometimes major) differences between the Japanese and U.S. patterns, leading many completionist collectors to get one of each different release.
This is the Japanese release Pokedoll. He's incredibly soft — one of, if not THE softest plush I've ever felt. Honestly, he feels just like my long haired Russian Blue cat! I named him Prescott. :)

A very large-sized tadpole! Holding him feels like cuddling a beach ball with a tail. XD I don't really know much about Banpresto's large sized "Deluxe" plush though, aside from the fact that they're often very cute.
I named mine Finnick after a character in The Hunger Games.

Part of the Dot Sprite promo, which features pixel artwork of Pokemon and people in the Black & White games, can badges were blind packaged in plastic baggies.
I told myself to focus on Tympole plush, but... so cute!! It took a while for one of these to surface where I could purchase it.

Seismitoad is from a Namco-only set, which are rarer than the usual MPC sets because they're sold only in the Namco store in Japan for a limited time. This guy's a monster compared to his pre-evolutions! So much bigger and bulkier. Super soft and cute though. His name is Biff Pie. (He was destined to be Pie to match my other two, but then he was so muscley my friend said I should call him Biff. XD)

A very small stamp featuring Seismitoad! It was sold in a plastic case with at least a dozen other stamps. I'm not sure of the company.
The Japanese says "yoroshiku" which is a little hard to translate, but it's essentially a friendly greeting. I think the phrase goes cutely with his cordial little wave.
