Hex Maniac
The Hex Maniac is a class of non-playable opponent Trainers from the Pokemon video game series. Dressed in witch garbs or in long black dresses, these young girls employ Psychic- and Ghost-type Pokemon, and are commonly encountered in areas associated with horror and the occult. Hex Maniacs only appear in Generations III[a 1] and VI[a 2].
In the Pokemon fandom, the Hex Maniac is perhaps the most popular NPC class due to their "creepy cute" design and strange, obsessive personality. They are primarily known for being depicted with massive breasts and thick legs in many fan arts, which is partly influenced by the "big tiddy goth gf" meme. On /v/ specifically, Hex Maniac regularly gets threads dedicated to her, which as one might guess, are filled pretty much entirely with thicc fapbait images.
Tournament History
Hex Maniac has appeared in Queen of /v/ 2021 and 2022. In the former she managed to take out Metal Slug's Eri Kasamoto as well as Angela from Lobotomy Corporation before being defeated by Mega Man waifu Tron Bonne.
In 2022 she saw a deeper run, scoring decisive victories against Kaine, 2021's Literally Who Award recipient Pixie, and Resident Evil's Jill Valentine, before meeting her round 4 end to Maya Fey in a battle of the supernaturally inclined. Hex Maniac has since become a controversial pick since, though she has received a fair amount of OC and vocal supporters, it's generally recognized the majority of her appeal comes from off-model fanarts rather than any character she might have. She is especially divisive among tourney Pokemon fans, with a vocal faction among Pokefags lamenting one of their series limit slots being taken by what they see as a "boring coomer vote". Though she has been well seeded and backed up by her supporters thus far, it is to be seen whether the growing sentiment against her will effect her results.
