Answer: Gijinka (擬人化) is a Japanese word meaning "humanoid", "personification", or "anthropomorphic", although the use of the word outside of Japan has come to be slightly different from the use of the word "anthropomorphic" in the anime/manga/furry/etc communities. Rather than referring to just any animal with human characteristics, a gijinka is most often a fan re-design of an animal-like character from an animation or graphic novel in a human or humanoid form, (ex: a Digimon or Pokémon) or of a humanoid version of the artist's own original animal-like character.

What is Pokemon gijinka?
As taken from someone else's answer: "Gijinka (擬人化) is a Japanese word meaning "humanoid", "personification", or "anthropomorphic", although the use of the word outside of Japan has come to be slightly different from the use of the word "anthropomorphic" in the anime/manga/furry/etc communities.

Basically, it's a person dressed like or with visual qualities of a Pokémon.
If gijinka is the Japanese term for turning a creature character into a humanoid what is the term for turning a character into a child?
擬人化 /gi jin ka/ means 'personification' or 'anthropomorphization', which is giving human characteristics to something. For that as a single compound noun 子擬人化 /ko gi jin ka/ can be used, but I have not seen it being in dictionaries as a common entry. You can simply phrase it like 'kodomo ni gijinka suru' meaning 'personifying a kid'.
