Width: 19.6 cm / 7.7 in
Depth: 8.0 cm / 3.1 in
Pages: 3
Pieces: 20
Level: Easy
Designer: PMF
Photo: PMF
NOTES: Pretty simple to build. Start by building the top of the feet and glue the bottom on them. The arms are simple too, just need to start from the tips to the "shoulders" just like the ears that work the same way.. The whole body is a big ball so start at the top and close the model at the bottom, making sure the lines fit correctly. When all is done, glue the spiky circles at the sides and glue the arms in the middle of them; just make sure the blue circle is on top. Then glue the ears on the head and the feet below it.

DEOXYS : ATTACK



386 / DEOXYS - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Deoxys : Attack
Type: Psychic
Species: DNA Pokémon
Height: 1.7 m (5'07″)
Weight: 60.8 kg (134.0 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: The Attack Forme has basically the same leg-shape as the Normal Forme, but the stripes are no longer segmented and run down for mostly all of the legs' length, with a large spike on each knee. In place of its arms Deoxys has a pair of whip-like tentacles that come to a point were its hands would be. Deoxys has triangle-shaped "ears" and a single spike on top of its head. Most of the orange "skin" has disappeared to reveal even more of a black, lined inner body, with the lines shown to converge at the crystalline organ. In Generation IV, this Forme is obtained by touching the southeast meteorite in Veilstone City or on Route 3.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 23.9 cm/ 9.4 in
Width: 21.2 cm/ 8.3 in
Depth: 28.1 cm/ 11.1 in
Pages: 4
Pieces: 56
Level: Medium
Designer: Brandon
Photo: Brandon
NOTES: This build order is interesting, to say the least. Build the head and neck, then set it aside. Then build the tentacles, and attach the first piece of the shoulder to connect them both. If you do connect them by the connection they share, just do not fold the corresponding tabs and glue them together. Then build the gem, and attach the arms to the large piece of the body. Continue to attach the gem, all the while leaving the back open. Then attach the head and close the back. Close the body at the bottom of the waist, and attach the legs.
Also, like Normal Forme, it needs a base or some form of support in order to stand.

Height: 1.5 m (4′11″)
Weight: 102.6 kg (226.2 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Salamence is an extremely vicious Pokémon. It is also arrogant about its victories by spouting intense flames into the air. This behavior may be explained due to the fact that it faced many hardships to get its wings to grow, and therefore, it is very proud of its achievement.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 17.0 cm/ 6.7 in
Width: 25.7 cm/ 10.1 in
Depth: 38.2 cm/ 15.0 in
Pages: 10

AGGRON


306 / AGGRON - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Aggron
Type: Steel / Rock
Species: Iron Armor Pokémon
Height: 2.1 m (6′11″)
Weight: 360.0 kg (793.7 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Aggron are very fierce and aggressive Pokémon. They claim entire mountains as their territory, patrolling it at all times and mercilessly beating up intruders. The gouges in its armor are apparently worn with pride as mementos from battles. If their environment is damaged by a flood or a forest fire, they will restore the area by bringing in topsoil and planting trees. It evolves from Lairon starting at level 42. It is the final form of Aron.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 20.9 cm/ 8.2 in
Width: 20.0 cm/ 7.9 in
Depth: 32.7 cm/ 12.9 in
Pages: 10
Pieces: 87

Designer: Brandon
Photo: Brandon
NOTES: Build from head down, closing at the tip of the tail. The only tricky part about this one is the head. Like Lairon, it's in multiple parts, but this time 3 instead of 2. Make the jaw first, attach the part with the eyes, and then attach the skull and horns. Then continue on to the neck, and attach the head once the neck is done. Also like Lairon, corresponding rings are lettered. Corresponding pieces are numbered; each piece is to be attached once the piece it attaches to is complete.

Name: Lairon
Type: Steel/Rock
Species: Iron Armor Pokémon
Height: 0.9 m (2′11″)
Weight: 120.0 kg (264.6 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Lairon feeds on iron contained in rocks and water, and drinks mineral spring water until it is bloated, as it has been said doing so tempers its steel body. Lairon makes its nests near such mineral springs, on mountains where iron ore is buried. Do to its nesting preferences, this may cause it to clash with humans attempting to mine the ore.

371 / BAGON - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Bagon
Type: Dragon
Species: Rock Head Pokémon
Height: 0.6 m (2′00″)
Weight: 42.1 kg (92.8 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Bagon harbors a never-ending dream of one day soaring high among the clouds. As if trying to dispel its frustration over its inability to fly, this Pokémon slams its hard head against huge rocks and shatters them into pebbles. They also hurl themselves off cliffs in vain attempts to fly.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 13.0 cm/ 5.1 in
Width: 7.4 cm/ 2.9 in
Depth: 8.6 cm/3.4 in
Pages: 2
Pieces: 30
Level: Easy
Designer: Brandon

NOTES: Build from the top down, closing at the feet. Attach the 'crest' before advancing too far, so you have room to apply pressure to secure it. Also, take care with the teeth; they're pretty small, and can be somewhat fiddly. Also, it's suggested that you add a weight in between the legs to help it balance.

Name: Aron
Type: Steel / Rock
Species: Iron Armor Pokémon
Height: 0.4 m (1′04″)
Weight: 60.0 kg (132.3 lbs.)

It evolves into Lairon starting at level 32, who evolves into Aggron starting at level 42.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 12.0 cm/4.7 in
Width: 8.7 cm/ 3.4 in

Name: Rayquaza
Type: Dragon / Flying
Species: High Sky Pokémon
Height: 7.0 m (23'00″)
Weight: 206.5 kg (455.2 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Rayquaza constantly flies around the globe in the ozone layer, stopping and descending only to land on the peak of the Sky Pillar to rest. It is extremely territorial and will attack any intruders of its home. Due to the fact that it can calm the other members of the Weather Trio, it can be seen to be considered a leader and calm.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 37.4 cm/14.7 in
Width: 26.1 cm/ 10.3 in
Depth: 24.1 cm/9.5 in
Pages: 8
Pieces: 130
Level: Hard
Designer: Brandon
Photo: Brandon
NOTES: Many of the body pieces are quite repetitive, but when it comes to the arms and hands be sure to take your time and be very careful. These parts, along with the fins, are what constitute the difficulty. Other than that, all of the pieces of the body are numbered, so just match them up as you go and it is fairly straight forward. Also note that the fins are designated to the body piece by the numbers on the end of each body section. When attaching each fin, check that the curve of it lines up with the curve on the body. Each one goes to a specific place on the tube (Inside of the curve, outside). It is also suggested to leave one end of each body section open until all fins are attached, so that you can apply pressure from the inside.

STANTLER (Happy Christmas 2010)

234 / STANTLER - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Stantler
Type: Normal
Species: Big Horn Pokémon
Height: 1.4 m (4'07"″)
Weight: 71.2 kg (157.0 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: Stantler are antlered Pokémon that are similar to real-life reindeer or caribou. These Pokémon are quadrupeds, with each leg ending in a black hoof. The pelt of a Stantler is a tan color with a cream-colored belly and a few cream-colored spots on the back. They have have large, brown noses and a pair of pale cream-colored antlers, each with a black orb in the center. There is confusion whether the tail of a Stantler is cream or brown, since the artwork has differed this way between generations. However, the official artwork from Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver depicts Stantler with a brown tail, the same brown as its pelt.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 18.2 cm/ 7.4 in
Width: 10.0 cm/ 3.9 in
Depth: 13.8 cm/ 5.4 in
Pages: 4
Pieces: 43
Level: Medium
Designer: PMF & Brandon
Photo: PMF
NOTES:This ain't such a hard model, but it ain't easy either. Start by building the head and build the ears on. While it dries, build the legs up to the hips. Glue the neck on the head and the chest pieces; careful it's a bit tricky. You can then glue the front legs on the chest.
Build the rear piece without attaching it at the rear/tail part. Glue the rear to the rest of the body and then glue the rear legs on. Close the body with the piece located where the tail go.
You then just need to build the tail and glue it on and the antlers with the small balls. You can either choose to make em as balls or as cylinders. A tip for the antlers: build the front part and then glue the flat piece over it. So if you look at the piece, build the sides and close with the big "U" in the middle of the piece.

PIKACHU v2



025 / PIKACHU - Pokémon Papercraft
Name: Pikachu
Type: Electric
Species: Mouse Pokémon
Height: 0.4 m (1'04")
Weight: 6.0 kg (13.2 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: A Pikachu is a short, chubby, ground-dwelling rodent notable for its Electric abilities. Pikachu have short, yellow fur with brown stripes on the back, red cheeks that can produce small jolts of electricity, a mouth that looks like a sideways three, black-tipped ears, along with an unusually shaped tail, resembling a lightning bolt. Besides its evolution and pre-evolution, it may be related to Plusle, Minun, Pachirisu, and Emonga due to notable physical similarities. Pikachu are known to have acute senses of hearing, thanks to their large ears. Most domestic Pikachu are able to understand and interpret human speech at levels far surpassing those of any pet dog.

THE PAPER MODEL
Height: 18.1 cm/7.1 in
Width: 15.2 cm/ 5.9 in
Depth: 16.1 cm/6.3 in
Pages: 5 (pikachu) + 1 (scarf)
Pieces: 43 (male)/45 (female) + 1 (scarf)
Level: Medium
Designer: Brandon/Lyrin - Scarf: PMF
Photo: Lyrin
NOTES: The model isn't difficult, the only tricky parts are the fingers. First thing, start with the thumb and create the five pyramids that compose the fingers. Once you've done it, making the rest of the hand will be really simple. Anyway, refer to the pdo for building them: it'll be even simpler (I've also coloured the finger-parts that need to be glued together with the same colour). As for the rest, follow the numbers on the template and you'll be fine. Once you reach the tail, choose if you want a female or a male Pikachu, and only print the corresponding page. And if you want to build the scarf, there's a close-up picture in the download pack that shows how the knot is done (and also the fingers, so you can use that picture for further reference). Please note that you can use normal printer paper to print out the scarf (it'll be simpler to wrap around pika's neck, in fact), and that there's no need to glue it: it's completely unwrappable and removable. There are also a blue and a red scarf texture in the pack, in case you want to customize your Pikachu (you'll have to change the texture settings in pepakura viewer to use them).

Attach it to one side and continue on to the rest. Build the waist, attach the legs (which should be built from the bottom up), and set it aside. Build one arm, and attach it. From there, close the bottom of the body- with one side open still- and attach the waist and legs. After that, build the other arm, close the body, and finish it up.

Some things to note are that unlike the other two Deoxys, this one will not stand on its own.
Also unlike the other Deoxys, you have a choice of what the arms will be. There are tentacles and arms included for both sides, and you can build any combination of them. Pictured are the left arm and right 'tentacles'.

The Defense Forme is bulky and thick; it has wide legs that are somewhat flat at the end and have a bluish-green spot on each of the knees. It has flat, broad tentacles that can't be twisted and hang down to the ground when not defending Deoxys. In addition, Deoxys' head has been fused with its body, resembling a helmet. Its "skin" has thickened and covered all of its body parts for greater defense.

NOTES: The build isn't too difficult, but it does get tricky while you're working on the lower body after adding the arms. As long as you can navigate around them while you work, this is pretty simple. It may also help to put some weight in the feet to stabilize it. It stands without, but is a little wobbly.

Depth: 36.6 cm/14.4 in
Pages: 16
Pieces: 120
Level: Hard
Designer: Brandon
Photo: Brandon
NOTES: This is by no means an easy craft. The pieces themselves are not too difficult, but fitting them together in the correct order is the trick. Start at the head and build the body to a point at which you can attach some of the blocks on top, then continue on stopping every so often to add more of the layered blocks. Close at the back, adding the tail fins on when closed. When layering the blocks, be sure to apply some pressure so that they fit snugly, and so that the last one does not hang over the edge. Line up the feet with each other before attaching. It is recommended to put some weight in the tail before closing.

Also, when doing the 'puzzle' for it's back, the order of the parts goes (from front to back) R1-B1-R2-B2-R4*-B3*-R3*-B4-R5-B5-R7*-B6*-R6*-B7-R8-B8-R9-B9-R10.
*=Stacked from bottom up. (First one listed is the bottom, middle is the center, last is the top) These do have to be in that exact order, as each piece is a different size.

NOTES: Build from the head back, closing at the bottom of the back legs. When attaching the 'hair', make one side first, attach it to the double sided tabs that should be glued to each other, and then glue the other side on. And also be careful with the feet, make sure they are level when attaching. Glue the crest directly to the forehead once built.
Also, there are two mouths, one open and one closed. The closed one is the largest, and in the upper right hand corner of the first page. Both of them fit into the same area when building.
