Reimagining Pokémon: An Eighties Live-Action Nightmare

Did someone say a live-action ‘Pokémon’? Fans of this classic anime wondered what a movie of this incredible story would have been like if it were produced in the 80s and these were the horrible results.

Everyone has seen Pokémon at some point in their life, but this immense universe of characters and battles has been so influential that to this day it continues to be a source of laughter and tears, like the time Ash became champion alongside Pikachu. There is no doubt that our protagonist’s faithful companion is one of the most famous, as he even had his own live-action Detective Pikachu with Justice Smith, but there are still those who were left wanting more movies.

Just as live-action of Knights of the Zodiac and One Piece have been produced, fans of the video game and anime asked themselves “what if a movie had been filmed with real actors?” That’s not the most interesting thing of all, but they decided to recreate a film of this type with the help of artificial intelligence, but as if it were from the 80s! You know, Gremlins and The Breakfast Club style. Here we leave you the peculiar results so you can tell us if you would have liked to see it or not.

Squirtle

We will always remember Squirtle as the meme image with the pointy sunglasses or happily gathering with others of his kind, but in this recreation he looks like an evil version of The Ninja Turtles.

Butterfree

The cute purple butterfly looks extremely terrifying here, it could well be a monster from Guillermo del Toro in his early stage as a director or perhaps a Tim Burton character, but it definitely has an eighties aesthetic. Would you have it on your team?

Rayquaza

What Pokémon is this, Lapras or Rayquaza? He decides for himself, but we also get the impression that he looks like the basilisk that appeared in Harry Potter’s Chamber of Secrets. Isn’t he missing a fang somewhere?

Ash

The endearing Ash couldn’t appear in this gallery without his blue vest and red cap. He’s missing Pikachu on his shoulder, but he certainly gives us the vibe that he belongs in an eighties movie like Rambo.

Machop

We’ll be honest, this Pokémon looks more like a gorilla that didn’t finish forming properly. He looks a little scary like Gremlins or straight out of Planet of the Apes, but maybe they wanted him to look like Machop or something similar.

Pikachu

Needless to say… This Pikachu has nothing to do with video games, anime or the movie starring Ryan Reynolds. It seems more like he belongs to the visitors from Earth who appear in Donnie Darko, don’t you think?

Misty

Obviously Misty couldn’t be missing, but what we can’t forgive is that she doesn’t bring her characteristic blue denim shorts. Her hair looks identical, so we can say that this was one of the only results that didn’t turn out too bad.
