Halloween is on the way, and choosing a faboolous costume is high on the to-do list. The good news is that Pokémon Horizons: The Series offers no shortage of colorful, memorable characters to serve as inspiration for your latest Halloween masterpiece. From thoughtful characters like Liko, Dot, and Amethio to bolder Trainers like Roy and Friede, there’s a costume for every Pokémon fan.

Putting together your costume might take time, so get an early start, channel your creativity, and don’t forget to watch Pokémon Horizons: The Series on Netflix for inspiration. Here are some tips for assembling your Liko, Roy, Dot, Friede, or Amethio costume:

This polite Pokémon Trainer began her journey by leaving her home in Paldea to attend Indigo Academy in Kanto. After joining the Rising Volt Tacklers, she started coming out of her shell and is working on her goal of understanding the feelings of Pokémon.

What You’ll Need

• Green hairpin

• Blue jacket

• White shirt

• Blue shorts

• White socks with a blue band

Additional Tips

If you plan to wear a wig or temporarily color your hair, remember that the underlayer of Liko’s hair is actually blue. You can achieve this look by layering two different wigs.

We rarely see Liko without her partner Pokémon, Sprigatito. You can get your own Sprigatito at the Pokémon Center.

This adventurous and energetic Pokémon Trainer began his journey after meeting Fuecoco on the island where he lived. His enthusiasm sometimes results in overconfidence, but his passion for Pokémon and new experiences always pulls him through.

What You’ll Need

• Black and white hat

• Black vest

• Red shirt with white sleeves

• Unown R decal on shirt

• Brown shorts

• Black sandals

• Blue backpack

Additional Tips

Don’t forget the red splash of bangs beneath Roy’s hat.

Roy’s journey really begins when he meets Fuecoco. You can pick up your very own Fuecoco from the Pokémon Center.

Roy is known to carry an Ancient Poké Ball that plays an important role in his adventures. You can create your own Ancient Poké Ball costume accessory using papier-mâché, clay, or polystyrene foam and paint.

This popular content creator is perhaps best known as the dynamic and outgoing Nidothing. IRL, however, Dot is shy and reclusive, choosing to spend most of her time creating new videos in her room.

What You’ll Need

• Purple jacket

• Dark tank top

• Green sweatpants

• Snorlax slippers

Additional Tips

Dot’s hair features an outer purple layer and interior pink layer. This effect could be achieved by stacking a purple wig on top of a pink wig.

Even though Dot starts her journey as a Pokémon Trainer a little later than Liko and Roy, her bond with Quaxly is strong. If you plan to wear a Dot costume this Halloween, you can pick up your own Quaxly at the Pokémon Center.

As a Pokémon Professor and the leader of the Rising Volt Tacklers, Friede is always ready for the next adventure. He might be a little forgetful when it comes to updating his crew about the latest news, but he works hard to protect his ship and crew.

What You’ll Need

• Goggles

• Pilot’s jacket

• Black shirt

• Patches

• Khaki pants

• Belt with buckle design

• Boots

Additional Tips

Friede’s jacket has several patches on it—a patch of Charizard’s head on his left arm, a red patch with a yellow symbol on the left side of his chest, and a patch of Charizard’s wing on his right arm.

Friede has two partner Pokémon—Captain Pikachu and Charizard. You can accessorize your Friede costume with your very own Pikachu plush and Charizard plush.

As one of the chief antagonists of Pokémon Horizons: The Series and a prominent member of the Explorers, Amethio tends to be very focused on the task at hand. Despite his reserved personality, Amethio never shies away from battle and is confident in his ability to fulfill the demands of his superiors. An Amethio costume is deceptively simple, requiring small but important details.

What You’ll Need

• Black gloves

• Long-sleeved collared shirt with purple line

• Slacks with a purple line

• Bolo tie with purple triangle

• Dress shoes

Additional Tips

Amethio’s hair is light gray on his left side and dark gray on his right side, which might be a challenging look to achieve. Whether you want to use a wig or color your own hair, be sure to plan ahead.

Because Amethio has vivid amethyst eyes that match the color of his bolo tie, you might consider using colored contact lenses for your costume.

Ceruledge is Amethio’s ace Pokémon. You can pick up a plush Ceruledge from the Pokémon Center to complete your costume.

Don’t forget to use #Pokeween to share your costume on social media with fellow Pokémon fans! And keep an eye out for more Pokéween content, including Pokémon stencils, a Year of the Dragon Halloween opinion piece, and more.
