This Magikarp Photo Shoot Will Ruin Your Childhood

    Or maybe it will make your childhood

    Do you remember Magikarp? You know, the most WORTHLESS POKÉMON IN THE GAME'S HISTORY.

    You can't say he was that much of a catch in the television series either.

    Well, a lot has changed since his inception. Magikarp has evolved into something you may not have been expecting or prepared for...

    Say hello to the fully evolved, fine AF sexy Magikarp of today.

    Just ask him about his splash attack now. Seriously, ASK HIM!

    Sexy Magikarp made his debut at this year's Colossalcon, which was held at a waterpark resort in Sandusky, Ohio.

    The cosplay was positively received by attendees of Colossalcon and still has online communities buzzing.

    In addition to Magikarp, Sev has cosplayed as Zangeif from Street Fighter, Gamagori from Kill la Kill, and Bane from Batman.

    "[Cosplay] is a challenging creative outlet for my general geekery," he says. "Every time I tackle a new costume I end up learning a ton. Sewing, woodworking, foam crafting, painting, wig styling: I didn't know any of these before starting cosplay."

    Sev's favorite part of cosplay is not just coming up with concepts, it's spending time with other cosplayers at conventions.

    Colossalcon may be the only appearance of sexy Magikarp for some time, but, there is still a possibility you'll see another Pokémon cosplay from Sev in the future.
