Pokemon Origami
It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of the Pokemon videogames and there just so happens to be some incredibly awesome Pokemon origami on the Internet.
A few of these models even have crease patterns or videos showing how to fold them.
We’ll start off with some models from a website called Calico’s Origami Aquarium which I think has the best Pokemon origami models that I’ve ever seen.
#016 Pidgey

You can find the original image here, along with a couple more pictures from different angles and a crease pattern.
#019 Ratatta

You can find the original image here along with the crease pattern and a couple more images from different angles.
#032 Nidoran Male

You can find the original image here along with a crease pattern and some other photos.
#080 Slowbro

I really like how the shell looks on this origami Slowbro. You can find the original image here along with some more pictures, one that really shows off that shell and a crease pattern.
#120 Staryu

I think it’s a really awesome idea to use an origami kusudama to make a Staryu. You can see the original image here.
#121 Starmie

It’s really just another origami kusudama but the colours that are used are what makes this work so well. You can find the original image here.
#145 Zapdos

This origami Zapdos is absolutely perfect. You can find the original image here.
#146 Moltres

You can find the original image plus a few more here.
#150 Mewtwo

I’ve seen a couple of different origami Mewtwos on the Internet but this one is definitely the best. You can find the original image along with a few more here.
#201 Unown

They’ve gone and folded a bunch of origami Unown including an R, W, K, G, Y, P and Z. You can find the original image here.
#310 Manectric

You can find the original image here.
#492 Shaymin Land Form

This is definitely one of the cuter origami Pokemon models I’ve seen. You can find the original image here.
#492 Shaymin Sky Form

Another expertly designed origami Pokemon model. You can find the original image here.
#495 Snivy

Definitely the best one of the Black and White starter Pokemon. You can find the original image along with a crease pattern here.
#498 Tepig

You can find the original image plus a crease pattern here.
There’s also a post on the Origami Forum about origami Pokemon. You’ll find images of more origami Pokemon, some crease patterns and more information.
It’s also worth checking out the YouTube channel of a user named Axojisan. You’ll find some videos showing you how to fold an origami Dialga, Palkia and some other stuff.
Here’s an image of his origami Dialga (Pokedex entry #483) folded by myself. It’s actually not that hard to fold and it looks great.

If you know of some good origami Pokemon share the links in the comments.

please put some diagrams if you can!

Unfortunately there aren’t any diagrams for any of these models, just a couple of crease patterns. There is that video showing how to fold the Dialga though.
The guy who did that Dialga video does have a couple of diagrams for some other Pokemon I didn’t show here. You can find those here: http://www.ultimateorigami.net/origami-diagrams/origami-videogame-diagrams

There’s a crease pattern for the Tepig here: http://calicoorigami.web.fc2.com/main/pokemon_pokabu.html
Unfortunately there aren’t any diagrams for it anywhere. If you need help with the crease pattern someone on the origami forum might be able to help. Here’s a link to the forum: http://snkhan.co.uk/forum/
