Summary
A talented cosplayer andPokemonfan is receiving plenty of attention from the game community after showing off their impressive cosplay of a classic character from the franchise, Sabrina. The cosplay of the fan-favorite Gym Leader, which appears to take inspiration from her appearance inPokemon TCG Pocket, is catching the eyes of hundreds ofPokemonfans.
One of the original Gym Leaders of thePokemonfranchise, Sabrina is the leader of Saffron Gym in Saffron City, handing out the Marsh Badge to trainers strong enough to defeat her. Specializing in Psychic-type Pokemon as well as possessing psychic powers herself, Sabrina is a formidable opponent, at one point famously turning people into dolls in the anime.Pokemon TCG Pocketplayers can unlock Sabrinawith a surefire method, who currently holds a spot as one of the top-performing Supporter cards in the entire game.
The impressivePokemonfan’s Sabrina cosplay comes from one of Reddit’s majorPokemonpages, where they’ve appeared to model themselves after the previously mentionedPokemon TCG PocketSupporter card. Sporting Sabrina’s turtleneck-like dress, the cosplayer - who goes by the handle of konacos - strikes a pose nearly identical to the original card artwork. In addition to correctly-colored red eyes, the cosplay also features nearly the same haircut, as well as the black cloth around her waist, although the white gloves seem to be missing. Framed around a similar card design, the Sabrina cosplay successfully evokes its source material.
Longtime fans of Sabrina will know her core personality traits and physical appearance have remained consistent for the most part over the years, leading some fans to conjure up some of their own redesigns. A fan from the same page that the Sabrina cosplay was shown posted theirredesign of Sabrina and her Alakazam, which gives the Saffron Gym Leader an even more intimidating aura.
While Sabrina will always have the closest ties with Alakazam, manyPokemon TCGfans covet Sabrina’s Gengar, part of her official Gym Leader deck. One fan even madean 18k gold card of Sabrina’s Gengar, demonstrating the lengthsPokemonfans will go to show their love for the franchise.
