The master costumer at work.

A major wave of cosplaying by Chris, presumably to impress/amuse Jackie, appeared in Sept/Oct 2010.

It should be noted that most of the costumes are created at his home using construction paper, markers, paints, and anything else he can purchase in the craft section of a Walmart. They're crude interpretations of the original image he is attempting to portray and most seem put together quickly and with little effort. Most of the costumes barely resemble the character's Chris is trying to mimic; unlike his Ash Ketchum cosplay which had at least some effort put into it. The only other costume he appeared to put any effort into was his Sonichu form, in which he painted his face and body along with constructing a few minor details to make the look complete. This shows a complete lack of interest in actual cosplay itself unless it is depicting one of his creations or deep interests.

Ash Ketchum cosplay

That hat is pretty goddamn dirty

Chris appeared in his Ash Ketchum costume from around 2000 to 2004. It was originally created as a Hallowe'en costume in either 1998 or 1999.^[1] He proudly wore it to The GAMe PLACe every week^[2] and to the 2004 Anime Mid-Atlantic convention. With it, he won a costume contest against 5 kids dressed up as Team Rocket. The prize was a t-shirt.^[3] Television footage of Chris playing card games with little kids whole dressed as Ash was also featured on his DVD.

For a while, Chris resurrected this look for his profile picture on The Hook Cafe and eventually evolved into the Gay Trucker.

The Ketchum-style trainer outfit consists of:

Faux-denim vest
Cut up gardening gloves
Pokémon League ballcap
Fanny-pack (Also known as a 'belly-bag' and a 'bum-bag' to Britfags)

The ensemble was usually accompanied by a yellow Pokémon T-shirt, or white Sonic Heroes tee-shirt underneath (see gallery below). Chris can no longer wear this costume due to his obscene girth.
