OnePokemonfan used all the starters from across the video game generations as inspiration to create some interesting sneaker designs.

On Reddit, user MelodicWeb2161 showcased the sneaker designs they made based on the different starters across the franchise’s generations. The photo compilation starts from the latestPokemonvideo game, and proceeds to go backwards from there. They begin with the starters fromScarlet and Violet, thenSword and Shield,Sun and Moon, and so on. Fans will probably appreciate how the artist used the colorways from each pocket creature to implement them in Nike Air Force 1’s. They also plan to add the Pokemon’s Pokedex number near the heel of the shoe design, to indicate which starter it is based on.
MelodicWeb2161’s designs for the sneakers are quite interesting, especially since the colorways of starter Pokemon seem to only play within a particular shade range. For example,Fire-type starters like Fuecoco and Scorbunnyare mostly colored in hues of red, orange, and white, most Grass-types have varying shades of greens and yellows, and Water-types have blue and white color schemes. However, they are still able to make each sneaker unique to the specific starter they are based on, especially if they have special features like Litten’s iconic whisker shape or Cyndaquil’s fire-colored quills.
The artist actually has an Instagram account where they post more of their wearable designs, and not all of them are based on pocket creatures. They also seem to be taking commissions for their pieces, so this means that interested fans can actually own one of these unique wearables, even if it is not anofficialPokemonproduct or merchandise. Hopefully they continue to get support from thePokemoncommunity, and that they are able to make more of these interesting designs in the future.
