They\u2019re all excellent sets, but the pi\u00e8ce de r\u00e9sistance of the bunch was LEGO Pok\u00e9mon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise, a $650 set featuring evolved versions of the Kanto starters. It\u2019s a remarkable set in a number of ways, and a gorgeous display piece for adult Pok\u00e9mon fans. It was a LEGO Store exclusive \u2014 until now. Amazon has put up a listing for the big one, and it&#8217;s available now. <\/p>\n<p><h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\" data-toc-title=\"Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise - \">LEGO Pokemon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise at Amazon<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<div id=\"235022\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"235022\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise - LEGO Pokemon\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/02\/02\/venusaur-charizard-blastoise-1768227768383-1770045624462.png?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/02\/02\/venusaur-charizard-blastoise-1768227768383-1770045624462.png?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise &#8211; LEGO Pokemon<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg?cors=1) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>11<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">We built LEGO Pok\u00e9mon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise and found it to be worth the high asking price \u2014 assuming you have a spare $650 burning a hole in your wallet. It\u2019s an intricate and gorgeous set  ambitious in all the right ways. Each of the evolved Pok\u00e9mon are beautifully rendered and fully posable. Each one is also set within its own little biome. You can connect the biomes together to create a single eye-catching set, or you can separate them to let each one act as its own unique decoration. Very cool.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The other Pok\u00e9mon LEGO sets are excellent display pieces in their own right \u2014 and significantly less expensive. There\u2019s the $200 Pikachu and Pok\u00e9 Ball, which we built and loved in all its action-packed glory. Then there\u2019s the more affordable $60 Eevee, which we also built and were delighted by its adorableness. You really can\u2019t go wrong with any of these sets.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">And for kids who are more interested in playing with LEGO sets than <em>displaying<\/em> LEGO sets, LEGO has announced a whole bunch of Smart Play Pok\u00e9mon LEGO sets, coming August 1.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Chris Reed is a commerce editor and deals expert for IGN.
