Funko Pops can be divisive for some collectors. Many love the affordability of the toys, along with how well they replicate certain characters from big franchises. But many others have issues with the "cheapness" of Funko and don’t like the overall aesthetic. If your special Pokémon fan doesn’t mind Funkos, or even better—loves them—then there are plenty of Pokémon Funko Pops to choose from. Pokémon like Pikachu, Eevee, Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Charizard, Mew, Mewtwo, Caterpie, and many more have Funko Pops. Their affordability also makes them great gifts to get in bulk.

Replicas for the original hat can now be found everywhere, and they would make excellent gifts for any fan of the anime series.
