Pokemon has one of the most dedicated fanbases of any online. For almost three decades now, fans have been creating unique pieces based on the adorable pocket monsters. These pieces can be anything, from redesigns of existing Pokemon to real-life creations that celebrate the franchise in the real world. There was even one Pokemon fan who created an adorable Dratini wood carving. What's so great about Pokemon fan creations is that they give people a chance to put their own talents on display and use them to create something brand-new.

Redditor jillianjiggs92 shared an image of their awesome Pokemon crochet, which portrays the three Generation 1 Kanto starters, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Charmander. Frankly, it's an adorable trio, with one user in the thread even claiming they "look like original merch." According to jillianjiggs92, it was the first time they had crocheted in a year, making these creations more impressive. The poster was even kind enough to share their patterns for free so that any other talented crochet fans can try and recreate these for themselves.

Pokemon Gen 1 Kanto Starter Crochets

Because the Generation 1 starters have been around for almost three decades now, they're among some of the most popular Pokemon ever. Fans have had a long time to get familiar with this trio, and this makes them extremely popular choices when it comes to custom creations. It's almost rare to see a fan creation based on just one of the three - they usually involve the other two, too. There was even one dedicated Pokemon fan who created unique coins for the Generation 1 starters. As staples of the franchise, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle will always remain extremely popular with the fanbase.

It's set to be an awesome few years for the Pokemon franchise. Pokemon Legends: Z-A is set for release in 2025. Meanwhile, 2026 will mark the franchise's 30th anniversary, and it's difficult to imagine that Game Freak will not celebrate such a monumental occasion. Current rumors suggest that Pokemon Generation 10 will be released in 2026, but these remain hearsay at the moment. It would make a ton of sense - at that point, it will have been four years since Generation 9, but until anything is officially confirmed, it should be taken with a pinch of salt.
