Since 1997, the Pokemon Adventures manga has featured plenty of disturbing moments, and across all generations, these 16 stand out the most.

Redditor CutePreciousLeaf shared a picture of their wedding cake on the Pokemon subreddit, which features Green and Red ditching their iconic outfits for wedding attire. What’s worthy of praise is the meticulousness of the design, capturing not only the characters’ distinct facial features but also their signature hairstyles with remarkable accuracy. Additionally, the cake features figurines of Pikachu and Eevee positioned in front of Green and Red serving as the perfect icing on the cake.

In addition to the cake, the couple also shared a photo of themselves dressed in the iconic outfits of Green and Red. Their cosplay was remarkably accurate, mirroring the detailed design of their cake. Fans were quick to observe and comment on the couple’s striking resemblance to the characters, appreciating their commitment to embodying the essence of Green and Red. A fan, engaging with the theme humorously, made a playful reference to the games by suggesting that the groom might not respond to the wedding vows, in line with the character Red, who is known for not speaking to anyone in the Pokemon games.

This is not the only time fans have gone above and beyond to incorporate Pokemon references, with instances of Pokemon-themed wedding invitations and favors making rounds before. Most notably, the trend of Pokemon weddings in Japan stands out, where such celebrations feature Pikachu in roles of best man and maid of honor, along with Pokemon-themed food. However, what distinguishes this particular wedding cake is its personal touch, reflecting the couple’s unique interpretation and connection to the Pokemon universe, thereby making it a standout piece.
