The artist\u2019s adorable take on the Spikemuth Trainer will warm fans\u2019 hearts. Ever since her debut in November 2019, Marnie has become one of the breakout stars of Pokemon Sword &#038; Shield. The new character\u2019s fierce personality and punk aesthetic has made her a hit with fans. A talented cosplayer celebrated the heroine by sharing her mind-blowing transformation into the Gen 8 Trainer. She looks so much like the protagonist, it\u2019s almost as if the Galar rival has jumped out of the screen. Pokemon fan wows with Marnie cosplay While Sword &#038; Shield initially gives players a rival in the form of childhood friend Hop, they are soon met with a challenge by a Trainer named Marnie. The character is from the small town of Spikemuth, and even has her very own entourage called Team Yell. Cosplayer and Pokemon collector Sarah \u2018nerd_princess_sarah\u2018 transformed into the heroine on Instagram with her insanely accurate costume. The artist faithfully captured the character\u2019s punk-style leather jacket, and the pink pleated dress she wears underneath. Adorably, Sarah re-created a viral scene from the RPG where Marnie tries to learn how to smile. Putting a finger on each side of her mouth, she grins while standing next to a plushie of Gen 8 \u2018mon, Morpeko. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CLHlAn1H-eY\/ The cosplayer\u2019s take is full of details from the game, such as Marnie\u2019s signature black choker and silver neck choker. She also faithfully mirrored her twin ponytail hairstyle, which includes a red ribbon on the left side of her head. The artist posed as the heroine while holding Morpeko in her arms. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CLHjvIQnds4\/ In October 2020, Marnie made her return to Sword &#038; Shield in the form of the Crown Tundra DLC. The expansion brought back the Trainer in the challenging Galar Star Tournament.
