The cousins\u2019 mind-blowing portrayal of the heroines is one of the best things you\u2019ll see all day. Pokemon players were first introduced to the Galar region in Sword & Shield, which hit stores in November 2019. The latest mainline title in the long-running Nintendo franchise brought the series into its eighth generation, which first launched in 1996 on the Game Boy. Two of the title\u2019s most popular characters are Gym Leaders Nessa & Bea. A talented cosplay duo has brought them to life with their adorable re-creation. The pair look so much like the heroines, it\u2019s almost as if they kicked their way out of your Nintendo Switch. Pokemon cosplayers become Nessa & Bea Sword & Shield opens with players entering the Galar League as they set their sights on becoming the next champion. On their journey to become number one, they face the formidable Water-type Gym Leader Nessa at her stadium in the seaside city Hulbury. Prolific artist \u2018Alyssa Silos\u2018 went viral on Twitter when she transformed into the character, while teaming up with her cousin \u2018kyraadela\u2018 who portrayed the Shield-exclusive Fighting-type Bea. The duo perfectly pull off the Trainers\u2019 unique look. The two posed together in their replica Galar League gym uniforms, next to a shot of the characters in-game portraits to demonstrate how much they actually look like them. The tweet was made on July 10, and at the time of writing has amassed over 274k likes, and has over 48k replies.

Silos (@Alythuh) July 10, 2020 Bea is one of the Gen VIII game\u2019s exclusive Leaders, as Sword got the Ghost-type trainer Allister instead. He runs the Gym in Stow-on-Side. However, fans can\u2019t seem to get enough of Nessa and the Fighting-type heroine, making this one of the best Pokemon cosplays we\u2019ve seen to date. Despite only releasing at the end of 2019, Sword & Shield is already on track to become the third best-selling title in the entire franchise. Proof that its addicting \u201cGotta Catch \u2018Em All\u201d mechanic is as popular as it\u2019s ever been. Unlike previous entries, the release got an Expansion Pass instead of a third game. In June, the first addon \u2018The Isle of Armor\u2019 dropped, and the second DLC \u2018The Crown Tundra\u2019 is set to make its debut some time in the Fall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
