POKEMON: Awesome Cosplay Brings Fan-Favorite Gym Leader Misty To Life In Live-Action

Detective Pikachu proved to be unexpectedly awesome, and while we wait for news on future Pokémon movies, this cosplayer has perfectly brought Cerulean Gym Leader Misty to life in a live-action setting...

Regardless of how old those of you reading this might be, chances are you've had Pokémon in your life at some point. If you remember those original games and the animated series, though, you'll no doubt recall one-time Cerulean City Gym Leader Misty. The fiery redhead has become a firm fan-favourite, and made for an awesome female lead in the aforementioned TV show.

Now, one talented cosplayer, supersailorvirgo, has brought the character to life courtesy of a wonderfully accurate costume, a seaside setting, and a Lapras prop which does Misty proud.

Detective Pikachu was a hit when it was released back in 2019, but we've heard nothing since about The Pokémon Company's plans for a sequel or further expansions of the franchise.

It would make perfect sense to make use of live-action versions of characters like Ash, Misty, and Brock. One compelling suggestion online is that a movie could pick up with a has-been Ash (played by someone like Chris Pratt) forced to return to action several years after his glory days. 

Check out these awesome cosplay photos below:

@dhlthecobra - I knew it was a Josh article before I finished reading the headline.

Why is there an article about Kari Byron on a comic book movie website? 🤔

@Skestra - I once saw a pokemon comic in a nintendo power mag years ago, so it's totally on the up and up. (Note my sarcasm) These are the kids of arguments people have tossed at me for years when I've been critical of non-comic book news being posted here. I look forward to 5 years from now when election results and "bigger pee pee" adds are the norm for the sake of revenue.

@TheStranger - kinds* Note my Freudian-slip, seeing as how that's what we're looking at being sexualized here...a kid. A 10 year old kid. (yes I looked it up) I also eagerly await the "but Stranger~ she's not 10 anymore, that was years ago!~" crowd

I thought CBM evolved deliberately beyond this kind of hotty click bait articles.🤔 But recently CBM is going back to the roots, though? Someone should inform T-Bag then, he left us when posting hot chick photos became anti policy 😄

@AnungUnRama - Goddammit I miss those times.. T-bag and the rest of us used to run a riot here.. Now it's just a bunch of wusses arguing over what's more politically correct, ego fights. The news section filled with one interview split into a dozen ones and another dozen recycled articles..

Did you guys expect anything more from Josh? The sad thing is we’re coming in here to complain and he gets clicks from that too. Slimy guy knows how to get clicks.

This is very average cosplay and Misty is done by so many equivalently attractive/talented cosplayers. If you want impressive, check out Alyson Tabitha. Not many at that level.

We all know that this website lives for the clicks, so if this really bothers you, accessing the page and complaining probably won't have the affect you want. It's not like you don't know what to expect based on the title and thumbnail of the article.

Oy, this takes me back to the 2012 days of this site when they'd make posts like this, and everyone would say the OP was horny and make jokes. And here I thought we'd advanced
