Pokemondecorations are everywhere in many fans' homes, and fan-made ones have become very popular for adding a unique touch to decor. As the early generations who grew up withPokemonhave grown older and gained more expendable income, they haven’t leftPokemonbehind. As a result, in recent years,Pokemonfans have found ways to incorporate their favorite pocket monsters into their PC setups too, either through official releases like theGengar Razer headset, or through fan-made creations, like customized keyboard keycaps or mousepads. While good ergonomics are important, there’s no reason they have to be boring, and this unique wrist rest is a good example of that.

In this case, an artist called mint_tufts created a Gengar wrist rest called a keyboard rug. The pad is tufted, creating a soft and plush surface just like a rug, with the colors carefully placed to reproduce a piece of art depicting Gengar lashing its tongue out while purple lightning bolts rain down around it. The result is impressive to look at all on its own, but the fact that it can be used to helpkeep one’s wrists in good shape while using a keyboardfor long periods of time makes it practical, too.

Several fans have already responded to the post on different social media sites, saying how impressed they are with the creation and calling it perfect.
