Pokemon Fan Makes Clay Sculpture of Porygon

Although Pokemon is a never-ending machine, regularly rolling out new generations of characters every few years or so, many of the earlier ones remain fan-favorites. One Pokemon fan has decided to show their appreciation for a rather unusual pick, Porygon, crafting the digital Pokemon entirely out of clay.

Introduced in the very first generation of Pokemon, Porygon is a Normal-type Pokemon made completely out of programming code. Featuring a distinctive pink and turquoise color scheme and polyhedral body, Porygon's most recent appearance was in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, where its evolved form Porygon-Z has a weird sleep animation.

Posted onto social media platform TikTok, a user with the handle of @hotbinky has shared a video documenting the clay Porygon sculpture creation process. In the roughly minute-long video, viewers can see the artwork from start to finish, first starting out as amorphous balls of gray clay. The artist first forms these balls into Porygon's various polyhedral body parts, then showing the raw clay parts assembled. Paint goes on next, with Porygon receiving its signature pink and turquoise coloring and, a few moments later, a completed sculpture of the Pokemon.

The artistic creation is clearly popular among Pokemon fans, with the post getting plenty of likes and comments. The video has even been re-posted onto Pokemon subreddits, garnering thousands of additional likes, with lots of compliments and requests for other clay Pokemon sculptures filling up the comments section. Porygon has somehow maintained its popularity despite not appearing in the anime for over 20 years, famously causing widespread seizures in Japan from its only featured episode. A newer episode
