Pokemon Fan Builds LEGO Ho-Oh

One talented Pokemon fan recently built an amazing sculpture of the legendary Ho-Oh out of LEGO bricks. Nintendo’s ongoing series of monster-collecting RPGs is a constant source of impressive fan artwork, with Pokemon players recreating their favorite creatures in drawings and sculptures that are often shared on social media for other fans to view and appreciate.

LEGO is another franchise that has multi-generational appeal among video game fans, so it might come as no small surprise that Pokemon fans have pieced together tributes to their favorite creature-raising series using the beloved Danish building toys. These fanmade LEGO constructions range from model versions of famous Pokemon locations like Kanto’s Route 3 to replicas of Eevee and its ever-expanding evolutionary line.

This recreation of the fabled Rainbow Pokemon is incredibly well-detailed, capturing its majestic red, white, and green wings, fiery golden tail and head feathers, and piercing orange eyes.
