Has anyone made a Pokémon-themed PS2 BIOS mod?

This might be a bit of a niche curiosity, but I was wondering if anyone in the Pokémon or retro gaming community has ever experimented with modding the PlayStation 2 BIOS to include Pokémon-style visuals, sounds, or themes. For example, imagine the PS2 startup screen featuring a silhouette of Pikachu instead of the classic logo, or maybe background music inspired by the Pokémon Center from Gen 3

I'm not necessarily talking about emulation, but more like fun fan projects, visual mods, or even concept art that combines the nostalgic vibes of PS2 with the Pokémon universe. Has anyone come across something like this? Or is this still uncharted fan territory?
