Build-A-Bear is a charming chain of stores that isn't afraid to jump into the hottest trends in popular culture. It's not slow to offer Darth Vader bears when Star Wars is all the rage, and of course began to make hay while the Pokémon GO sun was shining.
With Pokémon Sun and Moon now a hot thing, it's adding more 'mon to the range. Now available is a build-your-own Charmander, pictured below.

The online set includes Lucario and Great Ball hoodies, along with an exclusive TGC card.

That set is now live online in the UK (it's worth checking your local Build-A-Bear website), and this one is due in UK branches of the stores on 8th December; the in-store set doesn't include the Lucario hoodie, and you have to 'add' the Great Ball outfit. Get your parent's credit card, unless you're an older fan with a love of cuddly toys.
In any case, it's more cool Pokémon merchandise; let us know if it's got you all hot and bothered.

I'm not into build-a-bear, but that's pretty freaking cute!

Craft-A-Char?
that is adorable...I don't even like charmander and I want one.
Wait, so, you take a "Bear" and then dress it up? Is that how these work?

I love you. You love me. Barney gave me HIV. So I kicked him in the (beep) and shot him in the head. Now that purple (beep) is dead.
Neither comments fit anywhere in this article. Let's move on.
@iGen lol. Legendary song.
Charmander! I want one!
@SMW
Me too. Too bad it's UK only, and too bad it would look silly getting one. Augh, stupid humanity...
It's so cute! Lucky UK
Wow, the charmander appearance is way better than I expected.
@iGen Looky looky. It is now on the US site! http://www.buildabear.com/shopping/store/Online-Exclusive-Charmander-Set/productId=prod12040030
Its cute, but it looks like it has a koosh ball on its tail.
It looks great, but I'll pass on it since I recently built an Eevee there.
@SMW
But it's online only. Who the hell has a Build A Bear online store account?
Poor Bulbasaur and Squirtle getting the shaft...
Aw...so cute. Charmender with Lucario outfits. :3
That Lucario hoodie looks hilarious.
