Showcasing their creative clay-sculpting skills online, a fan of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has created a cute figure of Wiglett, one of the newly revealed pocket creatures in Nintendo's upcoming title. With Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Wiglett being brand-new and only introduced within the ninth generation of Pokemon, it seems only apt that many fans are fascinated by the creature's form and features.
Revealed at the end of September 2022, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's Water-type Wiglett seems to have already caught the attention of the game's fans. Both fan art and fan theory discussions about Wiglett can be spotted in online forums and platforms. Given how avid Pokemon fans can be about a new title or their favorite pocket creatures, it is not surprising that every new Pokemon that Scarlet and Violet introduces will have the spotlight focused on them within community threads and online discussions.
On Tiktok, user hotbinky showcased the cute Wiglett clay figures they created using air-dry clay in a short video. In the footage, the artist's whole creative process was shown, from sculpting the clay to reflect Wiglett's worm-like shape to painting the Pokemon's white body, pink snout, and small eyes. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fans will likely enjoy the attention to detail that hotbinky showered on the tiny clay figures they created. They even produced several figures to replicate Wiglett's form when the Pokemon is both in and out of the ground.
According to hotbinky's other social media accounts, this is not the first Pokemon from the Paldea Region that they have sculpted using air-dry clay. On their Instagram page, they have also posted footage of sculpting one of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's starters Fuecoco. In that video, the artist also put in the same amount of effort and attention to detail in bringing the Fire Pokemon to life, albeit in a smaller form. Other Pokemon that hotbinky has sculpted with air-dry clay include the iconic Pikachu, the legendary Pokemon Mew and Rayquaza, Grass-type Bulbasaur, the shape-shifting Ditto, and many more.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet still has many new Pokemon to introduce to the community, especially if the game's new Pokedex will be filled with pocket creatures found only in the Paldea Region. And with just a bit over a month until the game's release, fans would probably enjoy seeing more of hotbinky's cute clay figures of new Pokemon that Scarlet and Violet will reveal in the days leading up to its launch.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will release on November 18 for the Nintendo Switch.
