Fan Cosplays as Larry from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Sure, here it goes:

So, there’s this cosplay — heard about it on social media while I was aimlessly scrolling, you know how it goes. Anyway. It’s super spot-on. Some Pokemon fan, forget the name, pulled off a crazy accurate cosplay of Larry. You know, Larry from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet? Silver hair, deadpan expressions — the works. It caught my eye, and apparently, a bunch of other trainers too. They were all like, “Whoa, those hair details, man!”

Larry’s a bit of an oddball character, right? The “Exceptional Everyman” or whatever, juggling those Normal and Flying-type Pokemon. He’s got this unassuming thing going on — dark suit, gray shirt, blue tie — it’s like he’s ready to crash a business meeting and a Pokemon battle back-to-back. It’s weirdly relatable. Oh, and did I mention he’s also in the Elite Four? Double-duty kinda guy. Runs the Medali Gym — normally like the fifth gym you hit up if you’re tracking along in Paldea.

Oh, yeah, the cosplay. This dude (or maybe dudette, I forget) went all in — gray paper pieces taped on for hair highlights and black tape eyebrows. It’s like a DIY genius moment or something. And the poses! Swear, I saw a pic of a brutal clash with a Magikarp and I couldn’t help but chuckle. It’s real Larry vibes.

Photos were snapped somewhere around a shopping area. I’m guessing the cosplayer wanted to capture that “hey, just blendin’ into the crowd” energy Larry has. But then they hit up a Pokemon Center — Pikachu on the wall, by the way, cute overload.

People online were raving — some were digging the gray wig work, and one person joked about how Larry’s so chill, he’d barely crack a smile even if tacos were on the line. Classic.

Seems like Scarlet and Violet are getting a sweet update soon, June 5 if I got that right — some kind of graphic boost for the Switch 2. Gen 9’s keeping its stride. I wouldn’t be shocked if fans start churning out more wild stuff after this. Wonder what they’ll cook up next?
