The Game Boy Color classics Pokémon Gold and Silver are now officially celebrating 25 years!

If you have fond memories of these titles or are just a fan of Pokémon Plush in general, you may be interested to know that the Pokémon Center is now offering special commemorative plush of the legendary birds Ho-Oh and Lugia. They’ll put you back $49.99 (or your regional equivalent).

The Ho-Oh Plush is approximately 15 ¾ inches long and 15 ¾ wide, and the Lugia Plush is approximately 13 ¾ inches long and 17 ¼ inches wide. Both also have movable arms! There is a purchase limit of two each and shipping charges apply.

Here’s an official description, along with another look:

“The Johto region’s 25th anniversary is being celebrated with flying colors with the Rainbow Pokémon, Ho-Oh! This remarkable Pokémon starred on the cover of Pokémon Gold And Pokémon HeartGoldand now he’s shown here as an all-gold plushie, in reference to his video game debut! Such a royal plush would look great next to other Ho-Oh items, or even Raikou, Entei and Suicune plushies!”
