Now that the handheld has been out for over 7 months, there's a plethora of cute Nintendo Switch 2 accessories out there that would make the perfect gift, but few scream Valentine's Day more than Hori's Eevee Cottage Core Puff Pouch.
For one, this official Switch 2 pouch features actual hearts throughout its design, which are delicately printed alongside a bunch of little Eevee illustrations. Secondly, this case is down to just $29.99 at Amazon today, a saving of $7 off its $29.99 MSRP. Today's deal price is a few dollars away from a record low, but it's still a great bargain if you can't quite budget for a flashy bit of jewellery or a trip to the nearest posh restaurant. If your player 2 is a Pokemon fan, this official accessory is one worth catching.
Should you buy this Switch 2 Eevee Cottage Core pouch for your Valentine?
First and foremost, make sure your Valentine has a Nintendo Switch 2 before grabbing this Switch 2 case, or any other accessories. While you can fit the older Switch in the case (I've checked myself with a Switch OLED), it's a bit baggy around the edges and better suits Nintendo's newer console.
It also helps if they're a fan of not just Pokemon, but Eevee in particular, too. If you have both of those boxes ticked, this is more than an accessory worth gifting this Valentine's Day. People often think of cutesy gifts for the holiday, and the entire Eevee Cottage Core line is all about that. The art featured on this pouch in particular is some of the cutest I've seen on an official Pokemon product, and I've been collecting merch, including the Pokemon TCG, since the 90s.
Between the little hearts, some of the Eevee are sleeping, and it's enough to send me, a full-grown 30-something adult, into a cute psychosis. The creamy white and light blue colorway is so dainty that it ups the cute factor even more. All it's missing is some lace, and I could have easily envisioned my own Gran sporting this case back in the day.
Like most of Hori's Switch 2 goodies, it's not just cute, but it's actually pretty handy. The pouch features space to store your Switch 2, 6 physical games, and there's a baggy storage compartment that I've even managed to fit in the matching Eevee Cottage Core Game Storage Case that's $12.99 at Amazon, along with it.
I've not taken my own version of this case outside quite yet, so I can't report on exactly how protective it is. It doesn't utilize a hardshell design, so it's not going to withstand a beating, and your loved one is better off with something like the Hori Gengar and Mimikryu case if that's what they're looking for. Otherwise, this Eveee pouch is a great gift idea for fans of all things pretty and Pokemon.
