Pokemon Fan Reveals What a Real-Life Version of Koffing Would Look Like

gamerant.com:

One Pokemon fan has made an incredible, albeit grotesque, recreation of Koffing, revealing what the pocket monster might look like in the real world. While there is seemingly no end to the amount of fan art produced by the Pokemon community, the disturbing appearance of the realistic version of Koffing is sure to stand out.

Despite there being a variety of grotesque and creepy Pokemon in the games, one of the earliest to be introduced in the series is Koffing. This Gen 1 Poison-type Pokemon evolves into the equally hideous Weezing and features a roughly spherical shape. One highlight of its predominantly purple-colored design is the gas it can produce. While Pokemon fans often make artwork featuring some of the franchise's more beautiful pocket monsters, such as Xerneas, one user decided that Koffing’s ugliness deserved to be featured as well.

Recently, one Pokemon fan revealed how unsettling the design of Koffing could be in the real world. In a Reddit post, a user known as thatsvile shared pictures of their model of Koffing. In one of the images, the Reddit user held the disgusting creation in their hand, providing a good idea of how large the actual model is.

While the various design elements worked together to create a memorable recreation of Koffing, several details stood out. For example, thatsvile gave his creation a pair of realistic eyes and a tongue, which appeared moist. In addition, the purple body of Koffing was covered in protrusions that secreted green goo, suggesting that the Pokemon could expel toxic gas at any second. Besides holding it in their hand, thatsvile shared several other images of the creation, including one in the dark and another on a stand.
