Childhood = Ruined: These Realistic-Looking Pokémon Are Absolutely Terrifying (Photos)

Have you ever wondered what your favorite Pokémon characters would look like if they were real instead of colorful cartoons?

One artist decided to try his own spin on this idea by illustrating a bunch of the characters to look realistic. The photos were uploaded to Imgur by a user who posts under the name 0liv3.

Throughout the series, you'll see realistic colors and more detail of the different fur and body hair on these Pokémon.

If you remember your childhood correctly, you remember wanting these little cartoon creatures to actually exist.

Check out the photos below for a closer look!
