A talented Pokemon fan creates a pair of Charmander and Tentacle animatronics and shows them off just in time for Halloween.

Reddit user fraughtwithperils shared a picture of his child wearing an adorable Mimicyu costume for Halloween. The costume looks perfect, doing a wonderful job of recreating Pikachu's iconic disguise that Mimikyu hides his true form under. According to the parents, their daughter loves Mimika and especially wanted to dress up as her for the holiday. In total, the costume took about four hours to make, and the parents and child made it together.



How the Halloween Mimicry Costume Was Made

According to the parents, the costume started with two matching hoodies. One is mostly intact, with some cuts to create the jagged and torn look that is characteristic of Pikachu's disguise. Fraughtwithperils made the ears and sleeves from parts of an extra hoodie, and the tail was made from a repurposed log pillow. Mimikyu's face was made of wool and sewn to the top of the hoodie. The eyes were painted, but they needed a bit of redoing as they didn't dry well and Mimikyu looked awful. The duo tried again, drying to prevent the paint from spreading, added glitter to create a glitter effect.


As you might expect, Pokemon fans were very enthusiastic about the creation. Fraughtwithperils and their daughter were praised for their effort, performance, and one even joked that they were also fraughtwithperils' children so they could get a cool Mimikyu costume too. Fraughtwithperils stated that while their six-year-old didn't like the creepy look of the watery eyes that the Mimikyu costume originally had, the costume could be deliberately creepy in the future, giving it a distressed and worn-out look. However, for now, the costume is a great recreation of the Pokemon design. Considering that Mimikyu just wants to find someone to appreciate it, it must be nice to know that there is such a big fan.
