About

Pokémon Gym Leader Hairstyle, also known as Pokemon Types as Hairstyles, refers to a viral trend on Twitter / X in which people pair extravagant hairstyle pictures with Pokémon gym leader designs, which are often aligned with a specific Pokémon type. The trend started in April 2024 after two videos focused on unique and detailed hairstyles went viral on X, sparking fan art and memes comparing Pokémon gym leaders, later paired with an image macro featuring all Pokémon types and their respective hairstyles.

Origin

The "Pokémon gym leader hairstyle" trend started on April 23rd, 2024, after X[1] user @unidraws_ reposted the video of TikToker[2] @tatianatorie showing her chained-shaped hairstyle with the caption "She’s a steel type gym leader." The post (shown below, left) amassed more than 3 million views and 154,000 likes in a week.

On the same day, TikToker[3] @kayratheodore's video showing her unique braids and hairstyle was reposted by X[4] user @Rattlezziper, who suggested she's a "psychic gym leader." The tweet (shown below, right) garnered over 8 million views and 308,000 likes in a week.
