Not only can you rest your head inside the soft mouth of this Gengar, but you can also use the 1.5 m tongue of the pillow as a blanket to wrap up or lie down for additional comfort. As you can expect, the internet is crazy about this new pillow and there are already many memes, jokes and fears circulating on social networks.
Here are just a few of IGN’s favorites:

“Rumors say that his gigantic mouth does not lead into his body, full of cursed energy, but directly into the afterlife,” says Pokedex’s entry for Gengar in Pokémon Sword. So, maybe reconsider before putting your head in.
The Pokémon Shield entry says, “it sets traps, hoping to steal the lives of those it captures” and that “if you stand in front of your mouth, you will hear the voices of your loved ones calling for you”. If you are going to stick your head in the mouth of this Gengar pillow, you might consider not doing it yourself.
This is not the first time that the Pokémon Company has created a very expensive stuffed Pokémon. Check out this IGN unpacking of a $ 500 full-size Mareep plush. After that, be sure to check out these adorable cuddly Pokémon Sword and Shield.
