Miscellaneousmao’s video begins by showing fans the finished Smoliv martiniPokemonproduct, complete with a stirrer and peeled lemon skin on the rim. The clip quickly transitions to thePokemonfan creating the Smoliv figure used in the bottom of the martini glass by using the flour-like tangyuan to mold the small creature as someone baking aPokemoncakemay use modeling chocolate or fondant to handcraft similar objects. The white material is colored green, and small features are added to the Smoliv to reflect thePokemon Scarlet and Violetcreature accurately as green leaves are placed atop its head and a small face is meticulously made.
TheSmoliv Pokemonmartini clip continues with Miscellaneousmao placing the Smoliv in a pot of boiling water after the details are added until its features become more noticeable as its mouth opens and tears grow out of its eyes. Miscellaneousmao then puts a skewer through the adorable Smoliv martini olive replacement in an attempt to effectively resemble any other martini, but with aPokemontwist. While crafting this Smoliv martini, Miscellaneousmao also casually highlights their impressive fingernails that are painted to look like Poke Balls which they did themselves.
Although Miscellaneousmao’s Smoliv martini is non-alcoholic given their personal preference, otherPokemonfans have praised their use of honey and lemon water, making the drink family-friendly. While a fewPokemon Scarlet and Violetfans lamented the puncture of Smoliv in their martini clip, Miscellaneousmao swiftly joked that Officer Jenny from thePokemonanimehad nothing to see with their creation. Smoliv may have only been teased as a trainable Pokemon inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, but given thePokemonuniverse’s history with eatingPokemonproducts, Smoliv martinis may appear in the upcoming Nintendo Switch game.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violetrelease for Nintendo Switch on November 18.
