Summary
A talented and dedicatedPokemonfan has come up with a variety of unique Pokemon fusions, and is taking to internet forums to show off the artwork that they came up with. The array ofPokemonfusion art, which oftentimes combines more than two Pokemon together, is catching the eye of quite a fewPokemonfans online.
Pokemon’s fan art community is one of the most prolific in pop culture, with a healthy outpouring of new art dedicated to the immensely popular franchise popping up around the web on a practically daily basis. WhilePokemonfan art can come in a vast number of different forms, fusing Pokemon together has always been one of the more popular niches. Fusing Pokemon together has only increased in popularity recently, partially due to the launch ofthe fan-made gamePokemon Infinite Fusionin 2023.
ThePokemonfan and artist in question is a Reddit user named Leoiruga, who posted their collection of fused characters to one of the site’s majorPokemonpages. The fusions span a wide swathe of Pokemon types and generations, and while some originating Pokemon are sensibly paired by sharing similar silhouettes, others are completely different, creating some wildly imaginative results.
The Pokemon Fusions include:
Gotta Fuse ‘em All!
The gallery of fusion art is clearly a hit with otherPokemonfans, with the post racking up dozens of upvotes and nothing but positive comments within just hours of being posted. The post interestingly includes a revisit of a popular fusion done a bit earlier. Late last year, the same artist made headlines fortheir variousPokemonfusion artworks, including one of Umbreon and Mimikyu. Comparing this to the one above, the artist seems to have added Sylveon to the mix, adding pops of pink along with some of Sylveon’s features.
While certainly an impressive assortment of pieces, Leoiruga is far from the onlyPokemonfan creating their own fusion art. Going with more of the classic pixelated sprite approach, anotherfan recently created a half-dozen Pokemon fusions, combining pairs together such as Milotic with Diancie, Scizor with Vikavolt, and Zoroark with Darkrai. While not as detailed a motif as the ones featured above, the results are just as imaginative.
Pokemonfans haven’t stopped lately at fusions, either. Regional forms have proven nearly as popular, with one fan creatingnew regional forms for 13 Pokemon. The continued output of reality-adjacent Pokemon is a testament to thePokemonfandom’s fierce dedication - something that won’t be letting up anytime soon.
