Matthew is on a Journey to Tattoo All 1008 Pokemon!

The Tattoo Artist

Yes, you read right, Matthew Fragner is a tattoo artist currently tattooing all existing Pokémon! 

His quest is to ink all 1008 Pokémon on real people before the end of 2030 – that’s a tattoo of a different Pokémon every 3 days!

This project has been turning heads and sparking a sense of awe. Matthew’s vision is as wild and vivid as the Pokémon themselves.

So far, the results are nothing short of remarkable with over 50 Pokémon being already on the skin. 

Gotta tattoo ‘Em All

Pokémon have been captivating the hearts of fans for almost three exhilarating decades (the first games, Red and Green, were released in 1996). But one artist, Matthew Fragner, has taken his unbridled passion for these iconic creatures to an entirely new level. 

Operating out of Port Ewen, New York, Matthew has embarked on an audacious mission that is leaving everyone spellbound. 

And he’s not just tattooing the classics like Pikachu and Charizard: he’s going for all 1008 species. With over 50 already under his belt, he’s well on his way to completing the ultimate Pokémon Pokedex in ink.

The project is called “Gotta Tattoo ‘Em All” and you can follow its progress at @gotta_tattoo_em_all.

Want to Get Tattooed?

The idea is as captivating as it is unique. Matthew’s clients aren’t merely tattoo enthusiasts; they are devoted Pokémon aficionados who want to wear their unwavering love for the big franchise on their skin.

Each tattoo is a work of art, meticulously crafted to reflect the personality and essence of the Pokémon in question. The attention to detail and the creative flair in these tattoos are what sets Matthew’s work apart.

But the journey doesn’t end with ink and needles. It’s about connecting with a global community of Pokémon fans, igniting a sense of camaraderie and unity. Matthew is constantly on the lookout for clients who share his passion, inviting them to partake in this awe-inspiring project. 

These clients become not just canvases but essential contributors to this ever-growing work of art, fostering a sense of belonging and shared accomplishment.
