The artist\u2019s costume brings the Spikemuth rival and her Morpeko to life. The Pokemon franchise was brought into its eighth generation with the debut of Sword &#038; Shield in November 2019. The Nintendo RPG takes place in the Galar region. Since its release, players can\u2019t seem to get enough of the game\u2019s new rival, Marnie. Bringing the Trainer to life, a fan shared her mind blowing costume of the character that will leave fans in awe. Pokemon cosplayer readies for battle as Marnie &#038; Morpeko Players face off against Marnie throughout the Gen VIII title. Hailing from Spikemuth, the punk character is followed by her own entourage called Team Yell. Her obsessed fans become encounters for the protagonist throughout the game. Cosplayer \u2018uniastronaut\u2018 shared her true-to-life take on the Trainer on Instagram, and her insanely accurate portrayal will be sure to wow fans. Photographer \u2018goodguygastly\u2018 captured the artist as she posed as the Sword &#038; Shield rival next to her Morpeko. Uni absolutely nailed Marnie\u2019s signature punk-style, re-creating her leather jacket and pink pleated dress. The artist also mirrored the character\u2019s iconic black hair, which is stylized with two ponytails and ruffled hair that stands up. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B7wyARFjEzQ\/ In another shot posted to social media, the cosplayer posed mimicked one of the Sword &#038; Shield character\u2019s poses from the game. The picture could easily be mistaken for Marnie readying for a Dynamax raid battle. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B8xEiRIDndd\/ Uni gave fans a closer view at how much work went into capturing the Pokemon Trainer\u2019s look. The cosplayer\u2019s outfit is full of details, such as the rival\u2019s black choker which has a silver pendant that hangs off her neck. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B7rfkfNDE5U\/ Despite Sword &#038; Shield only releasing at the end of 2019, the hit RPG has already become the third best-selling title in the entire franchise. Proof that its addicting Gotta Catch \u2018Em All gameplay has never been more popular. Fans in love with the Galar region are in luck as the game is getting expanded in a major way with its second DLC, The Crown Tundra. The add-on will make its debut this Fall, and features the three Legendary birds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pokemon Sword &#038; Shield cosplayer battles with Morpeko as rival Marnie The Pokemon Company \/ Instagram: @uniastronaut[jwplayer UmrP7a34]A Pokemon cosplayer went viral after sharing her transformation into popular Sword &#038; Shield character Marnie.
