Origami: How to fold Manene (Pokemon)

Manene is a Pokemon, which literally imitates (‘maneru’ in Japanese)

how people act and make them confused!★

Its special charms are a red nose, big eyes and a mouth,

which are just like a clown.

This Pokemon basically heals others instead of being a part of the combat personnel!♥

Let’s fold such an adorable Manene with origami paper!♪
