After giving Piplup its own Twitter and Instagram accounts last week, Project Piplup promised to celebrate the 4th-generation water-type starter Pokémon, with a selection of events and prizes. The latest is an adorable Piplup wallpaper, featuring multiple expressive silhouettes of our favourite anime penguin. You can download the wallpaper right away by heading onto the Project Piplup Twitter account.

Until now, there were barely any decent Piplup wallpapers at all, even unofficial ones. So, a free background with little Pochama showing off multiple expressions is a surprise development, sure, but a welcome one.

Whilst the aforementioned quote is a very loose translation of the relevant tweet, the project’s campaign for Piplup support will hopefully not go ignored. Along with the Piplup wallpaper, Project Piplup has also announced its own entry in the Pokémon Terrarium collection: a palm-sized series of clear Pokéball cases, each containing a display of Pokémon in their natural habitats. Piplup’s addition is without a doubt one of the most delightful amongst the bunch.
What do you think of the Pochama/Piplup wallpaper? Will you be downloading it for yourself, or are you still holding out for a Chimchar version? Let us know in the comments.
