If the Pokemon existed in our world… What six would you always carry with you? If we do a quick review, it would be essential to have a fire type to avoid being cold in winter. And another type of ice to save us air conditioning in summer, since electricity is very expensive. A dragon to fly and save us having to go by car or bus, another guy fights for you to take your bags from Mercadona, a fairy to heal you when you hurt yourself and… indeed, an electric one to be able to charge your mobile wherever you go. go. Thanks to the wireless charging technology, this Pikachu that we are going to see can charge your iPhone directly with the cheek. We now know that Ash and Pikachu’s relationship is one of convenience.
Pikachu, I choose you (I have 4%)
Nendo Yoshirin is a japanese sculptor whose specialty is clay. For a few years, this artist has been uploading his sculptures made with this material to his YouTube channel. His works are always inspired by the pokemon world.
However, Yoshirin is not limited to just molding miniatures. He makes sculptures solely out of small pokemonand makes them functional. In this case, the artist has brought to life an adorable Pikachu that has a induction charger on his cheek. It’s shaped in such a way that its little arm can grip an iPhone so it sits perfectly and can be charged wirelessly. Yoshirin has shown the process step by step on his Clay Yoshirin Pokémon Clay Art channel. Unlike other artists, the Japanese does not use any type of cork to give the initial shape, since he needs his figures to weigh.
After shaping Ash’s companion, he dries the piece for hours in a kind of incubator, and very well accompanied by a nice clay Rowlet. Once dry, Yoshirin sands the piece and gives it a series of primers before giving it color that end up giving his creation the same shine and relief that we see in video games. The result after painting is a very adorable Pikachu wonder capable of charge the iPhone directly with one of its cheeks.
His specialty is Electric-type Pokémon.
Nendo Yoshirin’s channel is packed with very creative sculptures using the Pokémon. A few weeks ago he made a Cyndaquil that supported incense sticks, emulating its sizzling flame that usually flares up from time to time. He also made a Loudred that doubled as a loudspeaker and even a Litwick that doubled as a bedside lamp.
However, the artist seems to have a gift with electric type pokemon. A year ago he made a very military Pichu for this project. He also made a Pachirisu able to carry your Apple Watch with a chubby cheek, a Dedenne that used its tail to charge the iPhone by cable and a Chinchou that carried a couple of light bulbs. It is not surprising that the videos of this Japanese man are filled with comments in all languages from people asking to be able to buy one of his works.
