The plushie can be purchased online now – we assume that it will make its way to stores in the near future. For now though, only an online bundle is being offered, which is Riolu itself, a hoodie, and a 5-in-1 sound chip.
To give a little background on Riolu, it's a Fighting-type Pokemon. The official description notes that it "can sense its opponent's strength and aura" and as it emits waves, "it can silently communicate with other Pokemon to avoid detection." Riolu started out in Generation IV and can evolve into Lucario.
Consumers in the United States looking to add Riolu to their Pokemon Build-A-Bear collection can place an order on the official website here for $57. The UK equivalent is up here.
We've been covering all of the Pokemon Build-A-Bear plushies for awhile now. All of our posts regarding past plushies can be found in our archives here.
