Description *Original Pokeball designs I came up with for the three starter Pokemon from Generation I*

YES!! Finally! I've had the idea to do this since I first started working on the first set (as some of you may recall). I've spent a lot of time trying to make these look just right, and have pretty much been working on them since the beginning. These have definitely been by far the hardest three to do out of all of the sets so far (at least for an amateur modeler such as myself). I'm glad I finally achieved my goal, but I still feel like they could be a lot better. Oh well, enjoy!

Also as a side note: I know a lot of people wonder about Charmander's ball and the flames, understandably. You must know however that it is merely for looks, and you should think of it like the flames on Ponyta and Rapidash. If the Pokemon trusts the trainer enough and is comfortable with them, then the flame would be completely harmless. Flames are only emitted when the ball is enlarged as well, and would diminish when minimized.

First Set: [link]

Second Set: [link]

Third Set: [link]

Mantis Ball: [link]

Psychic Ball: [link]

Swordsman Ball: [link]

Furious Ball: [link]

These can be used on any Pokemon, but will work worse than a normal Pokeball if not used on the proper Pokemon, and the Pokemon will be prone to disobedience and stubborness. When used on the correct Pokemon however, they will be much easier to catch as well as more loyal and loving towards its owner.

List of Pokeballs from left to right:

Bulb Ball
Only works with catching Bulbasaur

Char Ball
Only works with catching Charmander

Squirt Ball
Only works with catching Squirtle

They can also be used to catch each Pokemon's evolution/related Pokemon

As a side note, I am very willing to accept alternate names for Pokeballs, if I feel that they would be better suited for them.

Well over the years I have definitely chosen all of them multiple times haha

But if I recall correctly, I believe the first time I ever played I chose Charmander. I've always loved Charizard, although I do very much like Squirtle as well

Out of all the generations, the first one is the only one where I loved all three starters.
And Charmander was always a great pick too
Amazing job on all three of them too! You have amazing talent

Thank you! I use Cinema 4D. It's great for beginners getting into 3D modeling and design, and I am definitely no where near experienced enough to even attempt something like Maya

Love it! I'm a sucker for the original Pokemon. I stop watching it when Brock and Misty leave...

I seriously wish these were real. They would fit in so well in my mix-matched room.

Char Ball for me!! Forever and always!

Yeah I know how you feel. I'm a first generation kid and always will be, as much as I still respect the others. Number one will always be number one.

And that's two for two for people choosing that one haha, although it doesn't really surprise me.

I'd love to know how you did the fire effect, it's really nice. Love the texture of the squirtle ball and the bulbasaur ball is really sleek. Great designs overall!

UniqSchweick12 In reply to Serrawolfe [2011-10-04 01:16:52 +0000 UTC]

Honestly I can't believe I even managed to find out how to do it myself. It was the hardest part in the set to do, and I've been searching the internet for tutorials and tips on how to make fire in Cinema 4D for months and months.

It's also the only reason I finished them this morning, because somehow (still don't recall how) I managed to stumble onto a link showing a simple way to make fire. I kinda wish it looked slightly different, but I'm still pleased with the result.

Basically when you go to make/edit a new material there is a preset texture of fire that you can add, and I just took it, slightly edited it to fit my needs, and the rest is history.

If you'd like to see it done here is the video: [link]

Thank you very much for the feedback!

Khemia-Dragon [2011-10-03 16:33:22 +0000 UTC]

they are looking cool but i think a burning pokeball or the pointy top of the bulbasaur ball could harm the user a lot

UniqSchweick12 In reply to Khemia-Dragon [2011-10-03 16:45:45 +0000 UTC]

I agree with the pointy top, but don't worry, the fire is just like the fire on Ponyta and Rapidash. As long as the Pokemon trusts you, it won't harm you at all

ok then... maybe the firs just is activated as lng the trainer has it maximaized... ad not as long its worn on his belt...

UniqSchweick12 In reply to Khemia-Dragon [2011-10-03 16:52:51 +0000 UTC]

Exactly. Aside from looks it's also for safety, and really only burns anyone who isn't the trainer it belongs to
