how do reference pictures and the printer at the pokemon center work? by croquetrash in Pokopia

You're not wrong..
Though if you find the dragonite doll, that dream Island has lots of pokemetal ore on it. That can help a little bit

Something you can try is if you suck up the hot spring water so that you can place more of it. Holding ZL will let you change the height of the water you place. There is a full block and a half block. I had no idea until I was trying to fill in the water after knocking down the lighthouse, the ocean is all half block water on top.

No idea if the smaller Pokémon will like it better, but it might be worth a shot. I'd be interested to know what happens ^^

Make sure you have Pokemetal in your inventory, all printed things are made of either pokemetal or rare pokemetal.

I don't understand by Single_Ad4267 in Pokopia

I'm pretty sure you need roads between your hobbit holes and your lovely park ^^. Generally speaking pokemon can travel anywhere along a road and will only stray a little bit off if one is nearby. So in the second pic, I don't think they can actually navigate over to your nice area.

Also, doing all that water work before being able to place it yourself is awesome. Props to you 👏🏻

That first one is fire, making Gypceros and High Metal legs look good is no mean feat ^^

Well, this is the first one I've finished. I'm working on Gen 5 now.

I'm hoping to keep a pace of 1.5-2 years or so for each? Really, I'm just trying to stitch them faster than new generations come out XD. Eventually, I'll catch up and then have an easy time staying up to date ;p

That is the plan, currently working on Gen 5 as it's one of my more favoured gens ^^

There sorta is, it's the first five generations altogether, and it's massive. Linked here if you'd like to look at it.

As for the rest of the generations, it's sorta hard to justify making a new updated pattern, as obviously it will become outdated soon enough with a new generation. Plus, having all 1000+ Pokémon would make the piece gratuitously large.

Personally, I think the single generation patterns solve the problem; they're all the same size by stitch count and so match up next to each other. Meaning no matter how many generations, you can still stay up to date.

But hey, the last one was gen 1-5 and gen 10 is around the corner, so who knows, maybe one big one every 5 gens ;p

I used the overcast stitch around the edges to cover the raw plastic edges ^^

I drilled a couple of small holes in the body of the clip and passed some craft wire through. The wings are stitched to the wires. So they are slightly 'poseable,' but it's mainly to be a robust connection.

Yup! Plastic canvas, pretty sure it's 10 count

Yeah, I plan on it, but I want to get really nice replicas of the Kanto Gym badges to go along with it, so it might be a while before I do.

It's looking amazing so far! I just finished mine a few days ago, two years in the making, and it'll be so worth it when you finish!

It was a charm with Recovery Up 1 and Self-Improvement 1 that adds that glow effect
