A handful of his tattoos are included below, including the massive Pokemon tattoo that covers his entire back, multiple quotes on his arms and legs, and tattoos of famous athletes like Lebron James and Kobe Bryant.

Pokemon Tattoos

The NY Post reports that Nick Kyrgios unveiled a new, enormous tattoo on his back that features several famous "Pokemon" characters, indicating his love for the beloved Japanese anime series. It has characters like Blastoise, Dragonite, Snorlax, Alakazam, Charizard, Lapras, Mewtwo, and Gengar and stretches across the back of the 6-foot-4-inch tennis player. He wrote in the Instagram caption of the behind-the-scenes video, “POKÉMON GANG 4 LIFE. HAD TO COOK UP SOMETHING CRAZY!!!!”

Further, he said that he enjoys Japanese anime and video game series. He frequently tweets about playing the interactive online game "Pokémon Go," which lets users locate characters using their phone's GPS and capture them with their device's camera.

Five tattoo artists from the Ganga Tattoo Studio in Los Angeles expertly created the intricate design, which paid respect to the franchise. Prominent athletes, including Lakers players LeBron James and Anthony Davis, frequent the store, along with a host of other celebrities like Post Malone and Jake Paul. In August 2022, King Jame's son Bronny even had a variety of tattoos done by the studio's owner, Joaquin Ganga.
