Merch would include pokemon card blister packs, stuffed animals, and everything in between. Probably even hard plastic pokemon models, replica pokeballs that would open up.
Anyone have that masterball toy back in the day? You could open it up and it had a spring release mechanism on the inside of it. It was attached to a long elastic rope. You could throw it at one of your cool small pokemon models, they would hit the mechanism inside and trigger the spring, shutting the pokeball with them inside.
That thing was dope.
