It seems like Pokemon has been around forever, but really, the games, show and characters that come along with them have just become super popular over the last ten years or so.
When Pokemon Go was released in 2016, it was game over! Everyone was hooked.
Suddenly Pokemon tattoos were popping up all over the place, and we love them!
The brightly-colored characters make beautiful, vibrant and unforgettable impressions on others. Furthermore, these tattoos can help you represent all the different aspects of your personality.
Whether you are sweet and loyal like Pikachu, shy and reserved like Eevee or ferocious and protective like Mewtwo, there’s a Pokemon out there that is perfect for you.
If you truly are a huge Pokemon fan, you might want to consider starting a Pokemon sleeve. The bright colors and artistic style of the characters lend themselves nicely to large, vivid collages or sleeves.
You can even choose to do battle scene designs or add in words or phrases. However, if, for now, you’re simply looking for a single small (or large!) tattoo idea, there are a ton of great options from which you can choose.
Pikachu is probably the most popular character for tattooing; however, there are many other Pokemon with amazing colors that make great tattoos. Some of our favorites are the large-eyed first evolution
Pokemon like Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle. Snorlax is also a favorite, as is Jigglypuff and the simple Pokeball.
If you’re looking for something a little larger, Pokemon evolution tattoos (Charmander to Charmeleon to Charizard, for example) also look amazing on large areas such as across your shoulder blades, up your rib cage or circling around your calf.
