Terrifyingly Iconic: Miniature Gengar Unleases Its Power

A Pokemon enthusiast recently unveiled a chilling Gengar miniature, showcasing exceptional painting skills. While many Pokemon fans adore the franchise's cute creatures, a significant number appreciate its darker side, and this Gengar perfectly embodies that.

Gengar, a Ghost/Poison-type Pokemon from the first generation, is the final evolution of Gastly, evolving into Haunter at level 25 and then into Gengar via trading (until Gen 6, when Mega Evolution was added). Its iconic design makes it a fan favorite among Ghost-types.

HoldMyGranade, the artist, shared images of their terrifyingly rendered Gengar miniature. This monstrous version boasts piercing red eyes, sharp fangs, and a long, protruding tongue—a far cry from the official, less intimidating portrayal. HoldMyGranade purchased the miniature online but dedicated considerable time to its meticulous painting, resulting in a striking depth and realism that earned over 1,100 upvotes on r/pokemon.
