How could you, Budew
If you've been keeping track of Pokémon Legends: Arceus' incredible new adverts, which all involve Pokémon puppets getting up to various mischiefs, then you'll be glad to hear that there's a new one.
The adverts have all been about reality TV shows with the surprise addition of Pokémon, and this one features a Budew that stows away in a bouquet of flowers on a dating show, causing the couple to both have horrible allergic reactions.
Check out the others:

I just realized how much living in the pokemon world would be a heckscape for someone with allergies. The plants are sentient and can walk around...Where would you live that is safe? Good reason to become a fire type trainer though (provided they don't burn down your house/apartment/condo/car).
On Topic: I feel bad for the budew because it TOTALLY thought it was helping. And what if a ditto saw you on a date? It would totally change into a grass type to "help".
@Ryu_Niiyama I get really bad hay fever in Spring so this would probably be my worst nightmare. An adorable nightmare, but a nightmare nonetheless.
I don't want these to stop.
You know what forget these just being LOA adverts, just do this for whatever pokemon game you advertise, I'm all for it.
I never knew the insides of Budew's leaves were red and blue but it makes sense
@Ryu_Niiyama Well it did bring them together. I think? 😅 Not sure why would he bring flowers when he's allergic too though.
@Bobb yup these become the roses on Roselia
Welcome to reality.
Don't get fooled by its cute looking as Budew can spread some pollens to create some allergic sensation.
@Eel i think they were both ok with normal flowers but that pokepollen was too much. The budew was a confetti canon.
“It’s just the sales… somebody’s gotta manage ‘em!”
I chuckled at that line.
No better way to advertise a game than with a beautiful budd(ew)ing romance story...
Please keep these commercials coming, I can't get enough of them. I'd love to see Nintendo take the same approach for its 2022 releases as well.
Oh, Budew, you old Blaziken-blocker you.
@Fizza cue budew outside your window with a creepy smile. “I just wanna HALP!”
You've missed one. A second Munchlax one launched on Wednesday!
