A Pokémon enthusiast has recently crafted a charming Eternatus crochet figure. The Pokémon community is renowned for its talented members, who regularly showcase their creativity through various mediums, including plushies, crochet projects, paintings, and fan art. This particular Eternatus creation stands out due to its exceptional quality.
Eternatus, a legendary Poison/Dragon-type Pokémon, debuted in the eighth generation of Pokémon games. Its distinctive appearance makes it a memorable character in Pokémon Sword and Shield. The dual typing is quite rare, shared only by Dragalge and Naganadel. Eternatus doesn't evolve but possesses a powerful, unattainable Eternamax form encountered during the games' climactic battle.
A Pokémon player known as pokemoncrochet recently unveiled their delightful Eternatus crochet on r/pokemon, captivating fellow fans. A 32-second video showcases the Poison/Dragon-type crochet doll gracefully spinning on a thread, simulating flight. The craftsmanship is impressive, faithfully recreating the original creature while maintaining an endearing charm. However, the artist indicated in the comments that they'll likely focus on newer Pokémon rather than creating Eternatus' Eternamax form.
A Crochet Collection Takes Shape
pokemoncrochet also revealed their ambitious goal of crocheting every single Pokémon. While a daunting task, it's not unprecedented. Several years ago, another fan undertook a similar project, sharing their adorable creations online, including Togepi, Gengar, Squirtle, Mew, Torchic, Staryu, and many others.
Many stand-out Pokémon crochet creations exist within the community. For instance, a fan recently crocheted the Johto starters—Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile—with remarkable detail and vibrant colors. Another impressive piece is a crochet Starmie that accurately captures the Pokémon's flexible form.
The popularity of fan-made Pokémon crochet dolls remains high, and this trend is sure to continue. The 2025 release of Pokémon Legends: Z-A will undoubtedly inspire even more crocheted creations, potentially including new legendary Pokémon like the formidable Eternatus.
