Pokemon Go is so popular that PokeStops are being listed on Yelp, and Nintendo shares have increased by 10% since the game launched.
With that awesome reception comes awesome cosplay, so we rounded up some of the best Pokemon cosplayers - men and women - for one incredible Pokemon cosplay gallery. Click right to see them all:
For those who don't know, most of the cosplays featured above are known as 'Gijinka', which is basically the re-design of an animal-like character to be represented in human form, rather than having cosplayers attempt to look like the Pokemon itself. It gained popularity for Pokemon specifically via a Japanese artist who re-drew the original 150 Pokemon alongside similar-looking human characters. Since they aren't humanoid, the Starmie and Staryu costumes featured above are the only ones that don't count as Gijinka.
