Pokemon Fan Imagines Ogerpon as a Genshin Impact Character

A dedicated Pokemon fan has created a piece of art that transforms new Legendary Pokemon Ogerpon into a human character that looks straight out of the popular action-RPG title Genshin Impact. The fan-made drawing, which cleverly adapts many of Ogerpon's defining features into a human form, is quickly gaining traction on an online Pokemon forum.

Introduced fairly recently as part of Pokemon's ninth generation with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet's The Teal Mask DLC, Ogerpon is a Grass-type Legendary Pokemon that can alter its typing depending on the mask it wears. Able to swap between a pure Grass-type and dual-types Grass/Water, Grass/Fire, and Grass/Rock, trainers must defeat all four of these forms near the end of The Teal Mask's main narrative if Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players want to catch Ogerpon for themselves.

The person responsible for creating the impressive Genshin Impact-like human Ogerpon is a Reddit user with the handle of X-Stry, posting their work to one of the site's leading Pokemon pages. The artist easily translates Ogerpon's cloak-like body into clothing similar to the Festival Jinbei players acquire early on in The Teal Mask DLC. Ogerpon's face-framing thorny vine is transformed into a hood, with the Teal Mask itself attached to her hip. Ogerpon's cudgel appears to be largely unchanged, backed by silhouettes of Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti — a clever detail given the lore between Ogerpon and The Loyal Three.

While this version of Ogerpon certainly seems to be time well spent, as the artist claims the drawing took over two hours to make, they aren't the first fan to create this concept. Last year, another Pokemon fan created a human form for Ogerpon. Translating the Pokemon's cloaked body into similar clothing, this rendition has a few interesting differences, like
