Many fandoms make fan art, meaning they draw pictures showcasing their talent while celebrating the object of their appreciation. Some fandoms engage in cosplay, meaning they do all they can to dress like a certain character from their favorite TV series. However, only the biggest fandoms will go all out and undertake vastly tactile projects to showcase their appreciation.

That's par for the course for the Pokémon fandom, however, as its fans often go the extra mile to show off their love of the 1,000+ monsters. Sometimes this leads to bizarre ends, as it has in some corners of the internet, but often times it leads to incredible examples of people using their talents to show love for their passion.

Here, we'll celebrate some of our favorite examples from the past few weeks for your inspiration.
