A Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fan has made their own Bellibolt plush. Fans of the RPG series love creating artwork based on their favorite pocket monsters, utilizing a number of different mediums while doing so. This includes figures and plush toys based on various Pokemon, which are oftentimes hand-made.
One of the most recent creatures announced for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet was Bellibolt. The pocket monster is an Electric-Type and is known as the EleFrog Pokemon. Bellibolt will have one of two Abilities: Static or Electromorphosis. Electromorphosis is a new Ability that charges up Electric-Type attacks after being hit by an attack. Bellibolt is already becoming popular, leading one fan to make a piece modeled after it.
On Reddit, a user named Rinabow shared images of a Bellibolt plush that they made. The piece features the large bumps on its head that resemble eyes, as well as its actual eyes and adorable smile. The plush also features the lightning bolt pattern that can be seen on the creature's lower back. The work is incredibly cute and captures the charm that Bellibolt has in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
Another image of the plush can be seen on Rinabow's official Reddit post.
Rinabow's post is becoming popular on Reddit, currently sitting at over 2,000 upvotes. Many users have stated that they love the look of the piece more than the official Pokemon Scarlet and Violet artwork and in-game 3D models that have been released, and that Rinabow's work will probably look better than an official plush if one is released by Nintendo. A number of commenters brought up the fact that Rinabow was able to make the plush so fast and commended them for it. The Belliblot piece does look amazing and is impressive considering how quickly it was made.
Rinabow is not the only one making impressive plushies based off of Game Freak's RPG. A Redditor known as MeandSamBFFL created a plush based off of Charizard from Pokemon Gold and Silver. The work is based on the pocket monster's sprite from the games and features a tuft of material that resembles flame at the tip of its tail. The plush is made of purple and green fabric, which were Charizard's first Shiny colors before they were later changed to black and red. This makes it a perfect homage to the classic age of the series when many fans were first getting into the franchise. Both MeandSamBFFL and Rinabow did a good job of capturing both Pokemon, and celebrating older pocket monsters along with the new.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will release for the Nintendo Switch on November 18.
