Reddit user JhayAlejo has revealed an impressive fan-art that turns some ofGenshin Impactcharacters into Pokemon. The Redditor is known in the community for creating similar artworks which always manage to gather a lot of attention. Players are absolutely in love with the new set ofGenshin ImpactPokemon as the post reached over 2k upvotes. The first concept shows the two evolutions for a Pokemon based on therecently released five-star character named Yelan, who joined the playable roster on the first part ofGenshin Impactupdate 2.7.Click here to see all of the JhayAlejo drawings.
Numerous fans claim that if it wasn’t for Yelan’s dice, they would’ve never managed to guess the character behind the design. Making the two Pokemon ghost-type and water-type makes sense since Yelan is a hydro user and her elemental skill allows her to disappear. The second concept also features two Pokemon, Ninjel and Wipotachi, and they represent thefamous four-star character Kuki Shinobu. The Pokemon design embraces Kuki’s ninja theme, and it includes her signature green/purple color palette. Kuki Shinobu was released on the second banner of update 2.7, and she is a very strongGenshin Impactsupport.
Fisticalf and Cervestigale are the two Pokemon shown in the third art and they are based on the most recentGenshin Impactcharacter,Shikanoin Heizou. A couple of comments say that they love how JhayAlejo managed to catch the essence of Heizou’s design and turn it into a Pokemon. Despite being a Catalyst user, Heizou is actually a close combat character which is probably the main reason why both Fisticalf and Cervestigale are fighting-type Pokemon. Heizou can be recognized by the unique symbol on Cervestigale’s chest.
While all three concepts were well-received in the community, it’s safe to say that the last one is certainly a fan-favorite as it includes a three-stage evolution Pokemon. The evolution tells a story of how Rosaylne went frombeing one of the strongest Harbingersto becoming the Crimson Witch of Flames.
