Pokemonfans are constantly proving their artistic prowess by regularly posting artworks of their favorite characters through a wide variety of mediums. One of the most recent examples of this is onePokemonfan who made a Nanoblock version of the legendary Pokemon Groudon.
The Ground-type legendary Groudon was first introduced inPokemon’s third-generation, where it was the cover star ofPokemon Ruby, opposite Kyogre andPokemon Sapphire.Groudon most recently appeared inPokemon Brilliant DiamondandShining Pearl, where players could catch one after clearing essentially every other task in the game.

A user by the handle of u/vib_turtle has posted their impressive building block recreation of Groudon, which looks to be almost like a pixelated sprite version of the character. The continent-expanding Pokemon appears to have all of its major features accurately depicted, including its segmented armor-like red skin, large tail, and its white spikes running along the sides of its head and body. Garnering well over 1,000 likes at the time of writing, comments on the post reveal the creation to actually be made from Nanoblocks, a similar product to LEGO, albeit with a bit of a thicker profile.
It is also revealed the artist followed a tutorial, but took some creative liberties. While the Groudon building block creation is surely impressive, it’s far from the onlyPokemonart of its kind. A few months ago, anotherPokemonfan went viral for theirincredible LEGO version of Quaxly, one of the new starters features in the upcomingPokemon ScarletandViolet. The artist made thePokemonon a similar scale to the Groudon above, although this creation has much smoother curves and surfaces.
While some fans may not have LEGOs, Nanoblocks, or something similar to build their own Groudon with, they can always try taking on the Legendary in-game.Pokemon GO’s Groudon Battle Raidsare currently holding the tier five Battle Raid slot through June 16, meaning players have about a week to take full advantage. It’s highly recommended players gather the most powerful Water and Grass-types they can if they want a shot at catching a Groudon for themselves.
While Groudon may be absent from the most recentPokemongame entries, calls for a newPokemon Legendstitle featuring its native Hoenn regionare continuing to grow. Given the success ofPokemon Legends: Arceus, many fans agree the lore-rich region of Hoenn is a prime candidate for the newPokemonsubfranchise.
