I've never known the proper name of this promotion, but I keep calling it the Sylveon and friends promotion because that's what it features :) And it was released at the pokemon centers close to the premiere of the 16th movie so hence the title "Sylveon and Friends Movie Promo".
I'm still missing a lot from this promotion since it was super popular and I was not at all able to get everything that released during the period of time the merchandise was being sold at the Pokémon centers. But when I was finally able to start collecting it, it quickly became my absolute favourite Sylveon promotion! <3 I really love anything pastel with pink and blue colors~ And it features all eeveelutions with a foucus on Sylveon, Eevee and Pikachu all in gorgeous Sylveon themed colors :D
Unlike Happy Party Time items these things did not stick around for long with resellers so if you can provide any help finding things I'm missing from the promo I would be forever greatful <3
There were three different waves. The first included bags and mascot plushies as well as some adorable stationary. The second had much much more school accessories like pencil cases, pencils, erasers, rulers , notebooks ect, while the third wave focused on lunch and picnick accessories.

Sylveon and eeveelutions boston bag
Gorgeous bag and one of my absolute favourites from the collection! <3
It took me a very long time before I managed to get one because I waited too long.
I think loosing out on this bag is what got me extremely focused on Sylveon merch. I had experienced with this and other Sylveon items how unavailable they had become and realized I had to grab what I could quicly! Sylveon merch had become so rare and sought after by the time I was ready to full out collect her.
I made sure to sit in front of the PC and guard my auction for this until I knew it was mine. I'm just overjoyed I found another one <3 ^__^

Sylveon pouch and scrunchie/wristband
This pouch is made of the same material as the boston bag.
When I got it and saw it in person I immediately realized I had to have the Boston bag to match, but as you might have seen it took me a while. I absolutely ADORE the silky material used under the soft plastic material surface <333 It's such unique way of crafting a bag/pouch. Not only does it give the items a great and special effect, the rubbery soft plastic is neccessary to protect the fine, smooth and fragile fabric under it. I use it to store scrunchies ect from my Sylveon collection. It's both pretty and practical :) I finally found a cute pink scrunchie so now I store it in my pouch :3 I wouldn't mind the blue one to match ^^ The wrist band is so cute with its pink polka dots and Sylveon/Eevee embroidery. It's high quality too and very well done! |
Sticker book
Sticker sheet and make your own sticker kit: |
Beautiful little sticker book with Sylveon on the front
and eeveelutions on the back~ This is often mistaken as a notebook I think because many people like their collection items mint minty mint~ But ones you open it you realize the pages are too smooth to write on and has the exact same feel as a sticker book page. It looks gorgeous in it's plastic for some reason, but I removed it from mine so I could use it for my spare stickers (which is a huge project of mine<3 Gettin not one but TWO of every elusive movie sticker sheet is an immense task :O) The insides has Sylveon, Pikachu and Eevee's as well as little bows and flowers <3 |
Finally found a sticker kit for making stickers ^^ Because it's just too pretty and rare I can't bring myself to use it, so if I ever am lucky enough to find another I will be the happiest pokemon sticker collector in this world :3
It's a huge aspiration of mine to collect doubles of all my die cut stickers so I can decorate my Sylveon sticker book ^^ If you want to help my dream come true please don't hesitate to lead me to any stickers/stickersheets of the eeveelutions that I might be interested in :D <333 I managed to find 2 of the other small sticker sheet yay! It's super pretty with an almost gellylike translucency and 3D effect, so gorgeous <3 |
Stamp set
These are just way too cute! The individual eeveelution are so itty bitty and adorable ^^
The glitter and general style of this promo make these absolutely irresistible~ I don't use them because they look gorgeous in their packaging and because I don't have an ink pad. I think it's also partly due to wanting to keep it mint appeals to me a lot of the time (but not always ;3) The little "Dear" and "From" would however be perfect for letters and packages so I'm almost considering getting another set for use :3 |
School accessories
This is not a set that I bought (however I seriously wish I had!) but I now have managed against all odds to aquire all of it except the pencil package...
Clear file with the same motive as the notebook. Being a clearfile it has a more translucent effect which is very pretty~ The notebook has super cute varieties of the pokemon center exclusive artworks <3 And it's my favourite item in line of school accessory flats. The shitajiki or undersheet has a way different color than the other flats and is much darker. None of them are exactly the same in appearance due to being made from different materials obviously. I had a hard time tracking down all the pencils, but I somehow did it :O But mine are loose which is less appealing than having the packaging for them. I hope I can find the packaging/more pencils one day~ The pencil case cost me more than I could really afford (hence why I wish I'd use the ~$40-50 on this pictured set on yahoo during release) but it has long been sold out and unavailable everywhere, so in the end I feel lucky another collector had an extra for sale :) It was indeed a really great opportunity as none of them has popped up since and I doubt they will anytime soon :S The little ruler was a purchase I did along with the pencil case. I also have some eraser sticks and erasers that I got early on because I liked the artwork on the sticks and I was just curious of how the red (pokeball) erasers looked like in terms of what artwork was featured. And they were cheap :3 A sweet Japanese lady from ebay offered to pick them up for me :) These things look just so lovely together~ I'm sure this would be my dream school kit as a kid ^^ |
Bento boxes, bento bag, lunch cloth and cup bag
3ds accessories
I absolutely adore all of these! They were some of the first things I got from the promo because I knew I was going to use them and I didn't want to damage my new 3DS that I had gotten exclusive for the release of Pokémon X and Y. I had to order them from pokevault in a hurry for them to reach me in time for me getting my 3DS.
It arrived the very same day the X and Y games released too thanks to Brian's super speedy shipping~ ^__^ The game cartrige has my favourite Sylveon art (the same as on the drawstring bag I want so badly). The carrying bag is beautiful, but my favourite is the 3DS hard pouch. Mostly due to preference since I wouldn't carry the strapped one around without being very conscient about it and also becuase I kinda like the clean look of the hard case. I have the plastic hard case on my white 3DS and it looks very clean and pretty even though I sometimes wonder if the Floral Pink 3DS would have been better x) It was not sold in Europe however so white was the only option for me and I must say I'm pleased with it as well. |
Towels
I made sure to snag these beautiful towels off yahoo auctions when a seller had several available <3 It's the only time I've seen these towels after sunyshore stopped picking them up (obviously due to them being out ot stock at the PC)
I would never dare to use them, but they are beautiful for display~
I'm just astounded by the beautiful design on these! The yellow goes so well with the pink and the outlines of the eeveelutions are so subtle and beautiful. It's not too messy when all the outlines of the eeveelus are just there in the back, while Sylveon, Eevee and friends are the main focus :)
I personally really like Oshawott and personally don't mind him joining the decor on this towels or the happy party ;D

Picnick blanket/sheet
I heard that these are ginormous! 90x120 cm that's the size of a medium sized bed that can almost fit two people!
If I get space to display it I'll probably take it out and put it on the floor somewhere. I'm thinking by my desk so I can sit on something while sorting through all the miscellanious eeveelution merchandise and flats I store in my drawers ^^ |
This is just such a cool pattern! :3 I love how the eevees blend in with all the movie pokemon! And maybe most importantly; winky Glaceon <3
