A Pokemon fan has recently crafted a lovely Eternatus crochet. The Pokemon community is filled with talented people who often use their skills to celebrate the franchise, which includes creating plushes, crochet, paintings, fan art, and more, and this work stands out because of its high quality.
Eternatus is a legendary Poison/Dragon-type creature originally introduced in the eighth generation of Pokemon games. Often considered among the most memorable critters in Pokemon Sword and Shield due to its unique appearance, Eternatus has a rare dual-type combination, which is only shared by Dragalge and Naganadel. The Pokemon does not evolve but has an unobtainable special form that can be fought in Sword and Shield’s climax called Eternamax Eternatus.
Now, a Pokemon player called pokemoncrochet has shared an adorable Eternatus crochet in r/pokemon, delighting fellow fans. Pokemoncrochet shared a 32-second video of their creation, which shows the Poison/Dragon-type crochet doll spinning on a thread like it’s flying. Overall, it’s solid work that looks amazing, as it greatly resembles the original draconic creature while still being pretty cute. Unfortunately, the artist will not likely create Eternatus’ Eternamax form, as they revealed in the post’s comments that they will probably be focusing on new critters instead.
Eternatus Crochet Delights Pokemon Fans
In their post, Pokemoncrochet also revealed that they are currently working on crocheting every single Pokemon. While this is certainly an ambitious plan, it’s not as uncommon as it might sound. A few years ago, for example, another fan started to crochet every Pokemon, sharing the adorable results with the community online. The collection shared by the fan had monsters like Togepi, Gengar, Squirtle, Mew, Torchic, Staryu, and others.
Among the many Pokemon crochet dolls shared with the community, some stand out. A recent example is one Pokemon fan who crocheted the Johto starters earlier this month. The creator recreated Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile in detailed dolls with vivid colors.
Another recent creation that stands out is a crochet Starmie made by a Pokemon fan. This work managed to perfectly capture the Pokemon’s appearance, making the figurine look as flexible as the real Starmie. Fans will likely continue to crochet even more creatures soon, as fan-made Pokemon dolls are quite popular among the community. With the release of Pokemon Legends: Z-A in 2025, the fanbase will have even more creatures to be inspired by when devising more crocheted dolls, possibly including some new legendary creatures like the mighty Eternatus.
