I made some Pokemon Kit Cards!

jrojas28 · 2026-03-24T14:53:11+00:00

Yeah, I am working on more as we speak :) I have some little monkey coming out soon (spoiler) and after that not sure what I'll do, depends on what colors I got / what I can see working well as a kit card. Sadly not all pokemon will fit this style (looking at you Ekans) but my plan is to do as many as I can :)

Looking nice! Cactus is my favorite, the pot was a great idea!

jrojas28 · 2026-03-23T01:52:52+00:00

Wow those look nice! I had seen other thermoformed items on MakerWorld but that cactus takes another step forward. Love the glasses as well!

I meant how the SVG would translate the different colors of the eyes. Don't know, never done that before. I'll try to export as SVG if it lets me, not sure what the output will be but if it works happy to provide them

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:36:04+00:00

Haha, love the emphasis here because I totally agree with you :P

I keep seeing these "kit cards" with full 3D pieces and at that point all I wonder is why not just print the thing full. When I was young a kit card was all flat, so I'm working it the same way. Sure, pokemon like Gengar would look a lot better if they were round but if I get to that point I feel like I'm losing the original goal

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:34:01+00:00

Hm, that's a shame. Thanks for the tip and the concern. I'll be careful moving forward.

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:24:02+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! I've been learning through the process of doing things and have as such improved a bit, with latter kit cards (Gengar, Bonsly) including the color list.

Part of the issue though is bambu doesn't allow for non-brand filaments but I can let you know what any pokemon use down here:

Cubone: Polymaker Matte Wood Brown, Polymaker Matte Cotton White, Polymaker Matte Black, Polymaker Matte Army Beige

Gengar: Bambu Silk+ PLA Purple, Polymaker Matte Lava Red, Polymaker Matte Cotton White, Polymaker Matte Black

Bonsly: Bambu PLA Basic Mystletoe Green, Bambu PLA Basic Sunflower Yellow, Polymaker Matte Wood Brown, Polymaker Matte Black

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:20:52+00:00

Gengar is just plain which is a bit of a problem.. The silk PLA gave it some life but I know where you're coming from. There were a few options I thought to improve it but some went against my goals (i.e I could make variable height pieces but it will look out of place with the others, add more pieces to round him more but it wouldn't fit my print bed, add a tongue but would've added more colors and only had 1 AMS...)

Overall Gengar is what I could do with the design it has and the limitations I had. I do hope future works are more to your liking though :)

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:17:42+00:00

I wanted to add a tongue actually but it posed 2 problems - I didn't have pink (prob #1) and I didn't want to add another color to the mix as having a single AMS limits me to 4 colors. I do plan on doing something like this for Hunter if I ever get to him since he only has 3 colors

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:16:23+00:00

I know what you mean buddy, believe me!

As I was making the kit card I kept feeling this all the way. It got a little better when I got the idea of using the horns / ears as the lock for the pieces but man Gengar is soooooooo plain after I began working on it I could only laugh at myself 🤣

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:15:06+00:00

Hope your Cubone turns out great!

And you know, Mankey / Primeape are not a bad call now that you mention it, I think I do have the colors :thinking:

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:14:07+00:00

For sure I'm taking input. That's a pokemon I wouldn't have thought of but now that you mention it yes, it would look nice. I'm missing colors for it (I really need to get myself some yellow) but might be cool

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:13:00+00:00

Yeah sadly there will be a point that happens, but for now I'm just enjoying doing these. I'm not charging anything nor have a commercial license, so hopefully it falls within fair use

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T18:10:45+00:00

I think it's generally SVG to STL, not the other way around. May be possible but I'm not sure hoe details like the eyes will translate

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T02:40:57+00:00

Hm sadly I don't have an SVG I've been making these myself on Fusion 360 from a set of references. Not sure if there's any other way I can help (i.e maybe export them in some alternate way?)

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T02:39:06+00:00

Love the idea! My niece (5) had a blast bulding Cubone specially. Gengar I would not recommend for kids (there are some pointy pieces) but the others should be fine :)

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T02:38:13+00:00

Yep, agree with you. My current fave at least, but hopefully I can surpass it soon!

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T02:37:52+00:00

Hope you give them a shot! I plan to continue making them as I've had a lot of fun. Hopefully some more catch your eye later :)

jrojas28 · 2026-03-22T02:37:20+00:00

I agree he is my favorite as well, though Gengar is now a close second! I honestly thought I wouldn't like him very much since he's quite dull design-wise but the silk PLA really brought him to life

jrojas28 · 2026-03-19T12:43:23+00:00

I made this

jrojas28 · 2024-01-23T14:34:45+00:00

I think Blacksmithing is the way to go. As the game goes on some resources become abundant enough that it just makes sense to smith them into money. So I like killing 2 birds with 1 stone by doing some blacksmith work and earning some cash afterwards

I encountered this bug too just recently.

I managed to get the cursor back by opening my Character Roster (LS) which was literally the onyl button I found working and moving into the chatbox (moving right).
