I had this Vaporeon plush I name Vapey for almost 5 years now. Overtime, she got dirty and the vibrant color she came with (which I didnt really like) had faded. She also developed this little scar on her face that i remembered her by. My heart stopped when I found her yesterday without a scratch and a lot brighter. Even worse, she wasn't as soft as I remembered her. Instantly, I cried out, "Where's Vapey? Is this new?" As I couldn't understand that, unfortunately for me, the very plush I was holding WAS Vapey. Shortly after, I found out she had been washed with my blanket as I accidentally wrapped her up in it and forgot to take her out. I miss the old Vapey. I don't know how to fix this. I doubt my parents understood I didn't want her washed as I liked the way she was. I know it's just a plush toy, but this is honestly hard to take in.
