Okay so a bit of backstory to this:
Me and a Friend were hanging out today, and we went over to a mall to look around.
We went into one store and they had a buy one get one free sale on some pokemon plushies, so me and my friend both got some.
The first plush i choose was a Bulbasaur plush
And while i was choosing my second one, i saw this leafeon plush:

(i would take a picture of it myself but i'm lazy so...)
of course, i bought it, seeing how absolutely [i]beautiful[/i] it is
Now the question is: is this actually an official plush? Part of me hopes it isn't because of, you know, literally everything about it. But part of me wants it to be official just because I love leafeon and i can't find many plushies of it where i live
Also you can't tell from this picture, but this plush barely has a body, it just goes straight from head to legs. It's amazing, really

That is a bootleg.
If you google "bootleg leafeon" you can see some comparison photos. The derpy upside down eyes are a dead giveaway that it's not official. Official plushies just don't have quality control that poor. XD

Oooof yeah that looks kinda ... derpy. So my first instinct would be to say that it's a booty. However! Some official plush do look very derpy, and I remember there being a number of pokedolls that just looked ... like that.
Does it have a tag? What does it look like? Does it also have a paper tag? I might be able to tell if it's legit or not!

Here's an official Pokemon Center Leafeon plush for comparison:

Other posters have noticed the eyes seem off, but seeing both images I see the nose is a bit higher than usual and the ears don't have the gradient. The whole plush is also more green than yellow. Lastly, where are the leaves on its paws?
So yes, it's probably a bootleg. It's a cute bootleg, though. Enjoy your Leafeon.

Okay so I know for sure they’re a bootleg now (I had a feeling it was from the start but I thought I might as well ask) their name is bootlegeon and they’re actually really soft??? The derpy face makes them even better imo I love them

That's probably the most adorable bootleg Pokemon plush I've seen.
