One avid Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fan decided to create figures of their team using a 3D printer. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are the ninth generation of the long-running Pokemon game series. The turn-based RPGs feature a variety of animal-like creatures known as Pokemon that players can train, battle, and complete a variety of various other activities with in-game.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet both launched on November 18, 2022, and were met with mixed reviews from critics. Several of the critiques of the games focused on the extremely poor performance in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, with many of the glitches being used as memes across the internet. Despite the mixed reception from reviewers, the games would become the biggest Nintendo launch of all time and sell over 10 million copies in the first three days.
Many fans of the series enjoy the direction the games have gone with the open world formula, and particularly seem to enjoy some of the Pokemon raids included in the games. Now, one avid fan of the series has decided to bring their in-game team to the real world with the help of a 3D printer. In a post uploaded to Reddit, ForTheBloodSpilled decided to share a video of the 3D printed figures created by their brother featuring their entire Pokemon team. All the figures can be seen rotating on a small stand in the video.
Several users replied to the post to congratulate the poster on a job well done on the Pokemon Scarlet and Violet replicas. One of the users shared their skepticism for 3D printers but congratulated the original poster on how the figures turned out and asked if they would be painted. The original poster replied to this question and stated that they're not the best at painting and would rather leave the Pokemon as is.
While these figures may not be painted or as detailed as other 3D printed Pokemon figures, it is still amazing to see how gamers have utilized technology to create real-world replicas and figures to display their love for their favorite series. The quality of these customizable models are sure to attract the attention of many Pokemon fans. Once the technology is more affordable and available for the personal use of the average person, many more gamers will surely be interested in using 3D printing to create fan art and display their love for their favorite Pokemon or other beloved video game characters
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are out now for Nintendo Switch.
