Summary
- A dedicated Pokemon fan created a massive crocheted Dodrio that took over 100 hours to complete.
- Despite being part of the franchise for nearly 30 years, fans still have unanswered questions about Dodrio.
- The crocheted Dodrio sculpture has gained over 4,000 upvotes and is popular among Pokemon fans for its impressive size and detail.
An artistically talented and particularly dedicated Pokemon fan is amassing thousands of likes after posting their crocheted doll of Dodrio. The handmade sculpture of the classic Pokemon, which, according to the original poster, took over 100 hours to build, is absolutely massive in stature, and is capturing the attention of thousands of fellow Pokemon fans online.
Introduced as part of Pokemon‘s very first generation of creatures, Dodrio is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokemon with three separate heads. A wingless avian Pokemon, Dodrio evolves from Doduo, a smaller, two-headed version of the Pokemon without any tail feathers. Despite being part of the franchise since its beginnings nearly 30 years ago, Pokemon fans still have unanswered questions about the Flying-type evolutionary line, including which head actually controls Doduo or Dodrio’s body, and how the wingless birds are always able to learn the HM Fly, despite not appearing to have the means to do so.

Pokemon Fan Shares Ghost-Type Eeveelution With an Interesting Twist
A Pokemon fan shares a unique evolution for Eevee, with the popular creature becoming a Ghost-type and taking inspiration from an interesting thing.
The impressive crocheted version of Dodrio comes from a Reddit user called Luna Moth Crochet, who posted their gargantuan creation to one of the forum website’s major Pokemon pages. The post features a series of images of the crochet Dodrio, first shown with its creator – which appears to be taller than they are – along with a couple of photos with it propped up against a chair. The Dodrio is undoubtedly impressive in both scale and detail, with completely accurate features and realistic feathers reminiscent of one Pokemon fan’s Doduo nature documentary.
The humongous crocheted Dodrio is a hit with Pokemon fans on the site, with the post garnering well over 4,000 upvotes at the time of writing. Being what appears to be one of the more popular mediums in Pokemon fan art, crocheted characters from the franchise seem to be regularly uploaded, including one Pokemon fan’s impressive crocheted Vileplume. Another popular creature from Pokemon‘s first generation, the Vileplume features similarly accurate features, but pales in comparison to its overall size.
More Pokemon Fans Making Dodrio Fan Art
In addition to crochet, another popular type of Pokemon fan art is the practice of fusing various Pokemon together. One particular Pokemon fan fused Dodrio with Ditto, creating some seriously unsettling results. A drippy, three-headed amalgamation of Dodrio’s silhouette coupled with unsettling smiles results in nothing short of nightmare fuel. While a far cry away from the massive crocheted Dodrio doll, these creations demonstrate the vast spectrum of creativity within the greater Pokemon fandom.
