A dedicated Pokemon enthusiast has crafted a human rendition of Skarmory. This talented fan artist has gained recognition for their knack for envisioning Pokemon in human form, including the likes of Unown.
Skarmory, a Steel-type Pokemon, was originally introduced in the franchise's second generation. Its distinct features include a metallic physique and vibrant red feathers situated beneath its wings, which are commonly utilized as swords by warriors once they naturally shed. Regrettably, Skarmory has yet to make an appearance in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Nonetheless, avid fans remain optimistic that this graceful warrior might make a triumphant return in The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC.
A Reddit user named endifi, who is a fan of Pokemon, drew inspiration from Skarmory's metal frame to create a unique character. The character, known as Olivia Ska or O'ska for short, is a brave female human adorned in armor that takes after the design of the flying Steel-type Pokemon. O'ska's silver armor is accompanied by a flowing cape that conceals a red-tinted cloth. The striking accents of the armor and cape contrast beautifully against O'ska's dark, flowing hair. Check out the Reddit post here.
The Reddit thread is abuzz with excitement over this unique design that beautifully captures Skarmory's best qualities. From the graceful way the knight displays her sword to the vibrant accent colors that command attention, this human rendition of Skarmory would be an ideal gym leader for a Steel-Type Pokemon battle. In addition, the original poster shared their confusion about Skarmory's generation, mistakenly thinking it belonged to Generation 3 due to its appearance in Route 113 on Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, which is where their Pokemon journey began.
Skarmory remains popular among Pokemon enthusiasts, as evidenced by another fan's creation of a Paradox Form specifically tailored for the current generation. The artist infused Skarmory with devil wings and added additional layers of steel to its face. The Paradox Form of Skarmory also boasts a more sinister expression, further enhanced by its overall appearance, complete with an elongated tail featuring two curved blades at the end. Fans affectionately refer to this Paradox Form as "Scarlet Wings," a fitting name considering Pokemon Scarlet's design choices and their inspiration from prehistoric creatures.
