Pokémon: hikari_3602's Azzurra cosplay is energetic and combative
Pokémon
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet will arrive in November of this year, but fans are still very attached to the eighth generation of the Game Freak series. This is demonstrated by the new cosplay of Azzurra (or Nessa in the English version) made by hikari_3602 who wore the role of the gym leader of water-type monsters.Azzurra is the gym leader of the port city of Keelford, one of the many areas on our path to become the Sword and Shield Champions. When she takes to the field with her trusty Water-type Pokémon she shows a very competitive and combative character, while in her second profession as a model she shows off great grace and elegance, duplicity that make her particularly popular in the competitive Galar circuit.
The hikari_3602 cosplay of Azzurra / Nessa shows the more aggressive and energetic side of the coach, representing her in the shot below in her iconic fighting pose (congratulations for the balance). Overall this is a cosplay without a doubt successful, given that in addition to the pose, hairstyle and costume are very faithful to the original counterpart, demonstrating a painstaking attention to detail on the part of the model.
If you are looking for other cosplay, we suggest that of Queen Meave from the Amazon The Boys series by kristy_che_ and that of Poison Ivy made by Enot. We also suggest the Jill Valentine cosplay from Resident Evil by Helly Valentine, as well as the Mt. Lady cosplay from My Hero Academia by shikarakumi.
