We're Living in the Golden Age of Merch for the Best Pokémon, Psyduck

There’s just something about Psyduck that’s always been so relatable. Once a scene-stealing side character in Pokémon’s animated ‘90s series—along with being one of the original 151 pocket monsters—the adorable yellow duck with quirky psychic abilities powered by headaches and anxiety finally got center stage in Netflix’s Pokémon Concierge.

Recently the hit streaming show was given a second season order, which promises more Psyduck fun. In the meantime fans have to tide themselves over until the series returns with the long-overdue recognition of a Pokémon who until recently didn’t have much merch. Of course, with the release of PokémonConcierge some collections inspired by the show have been released— but so far, those are only available in Japan. However, there are a few stateside retailers touting random pieces... including a life-size Psyduck. Here are some of the selections we have found online for those with our headache powers.

The Only Version of Return of the King Worth Watching Missing From Max After Streaming Bug

Screenshot: Warner Bros. Bad news for Max subscribers who’ve made re-watching The Lord of the Rings extended editions an annual New Year tradition: the third film in the trilogy, The Return of the King — which just celebrated its 20th anniversary! —is only available to stream in its theatrical version. No ancient evil is to blame, thankfully; it’s an unspecified “tech issue,” according to a Max spokesperson who responded to a comment request from Vulture after the issue was noted by dismayed fans on Reddit . The fact that The Return of the King extended edition is merely temporarily unavailable is actually good news given Max’s track record for removing content in the past, and the explanation makes sense considering The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers remain available in both their theatrical and extended editions. The Max spokesperson assured Vulture that The Return of the King extended edition will be, ah, returning soon to the service, though as of this writing i...

That’s right, a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has mysteriously appeared in Hollywood. Like in the game and upcoming film, it’s a run-down spot that’s been closed down due to some mysterious activity within. Unfortunately, you can’t actually go in unless you’re hired as a security guard (kidding)—it’s just a facade for photo-ops you can visit. Check out the video captured by deadboifilms on TikTok below at the location on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood (near the Chateau Marmont Hotel). If you want to encounter the animatronic band of fuzzy and totally friendly creatures from the game, you’ll have to visit Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror Nights, there’s a walk-through in the DreamWorks theater lobby that’s been taken over by Blumhouse which features the real Jim ...
