I was curious to know which Pokemon are REALLY the most popular of all time. So, to find this out, I used Thingiverse, the world’s largest database for fan-made 3D STL files, Thingiverse, and took the 100 most popular 3D printable Pokemon models.

I analyzed their total number of likes, what generation the Pokemon first appeared in, and what Pokemon family they are from (for example, Charizard is labeled as coming from the Charmander family in our data).

The results were really surprising!

In this data study, I identified:

• The most popular Pokemon based on total number of Thingiverse 3D model likes, and number of occurrences in the top 100 pokemon models
• The most popular Pokemon generation (do you Genwunners win out?!)
• The most popular Pokemon families

Note: for files with over 1000 likes, Thingiverse defaults to just showing “7K” rather than the specific number. So, some files with below 1000 likes are rounded to the nearest thousand.

The Most Popular Pokemon Is…

Surprisingly, the world’s most popular Pokemon based on this Thingiverse data is… Cubone! 

4 of the top 100 most liked 3D files were Cubone models, mostly Cubone skulls. These models had over 28,000 combined likes on Thingiverse, making it the most liked Pokemon.

The top 10 most liked Pokemon were: 

1. Cubone: 28,000 likes
2. Pikachu: 22,020 likes
3. Bulbasaur: 13,349 likes
4. Squirtle: 13,000 likes
5. Gengar: 11,766 likes
6. Charizard: 9,765 likes
7. Charmander: 9,263 likes
8. Vulpix: 9,000 likes
9. Dragonite: 9,000 likes
10. Eevee: 8,692 likes

The Most Popular Pokemon Families

Even when the entire evolution family was included (so, Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard would all count under the same “Charmander” family), Cubone was STILL the most popular Pokemon from our data.

The top 10 families, whereby all the evolutions in the same family were included, were:

1. Cubone: 28,000 likes
2. Pikachu: 22,020 likes
3. Charmander: 19,028 likes
4. Eevee (includes all Eeveelutions): 16,341 likes
5. Bulbasaur: 14,349 likes
6. Vulpix: 14,000 likes
7. Gastly: 13,766 likes
8. Squirtle: 13,000 likes
9. Dratini: 9,000 likes
10. Togepi: 5,000 likes

Eeveelutions DOMINATE The Most Popular Models In The Top 100

While Cubone was the most liked Pokemon overall, Eevee was the most popular by number of occurrences in the top 100 most popular 3D models list, with 10.

10% of all the most liked models in the top 100 were either Eevee, or an Eevelution such as Jolteon or Vaporeon.

Pikachu was both the second most popular model by the number of likes, as well as number of models in the top 100 most popular, with 8 appearances.

The top 10 most frequently appearing Pokemon families were:

1. Eevee: 10 times
2. Pikachu: 8 times
3. Gastly: 6 times
4. Bulbasaur: 6 times
5. Charmander: 5 times
6. Cubone: 4 times
7. Squirtle: 4 times
8. Mew: 3 times
9. Vulpix: 3 times
10. Growlithe and 9 other Pokemon: 2 times

The most liked individual model was a Cubone skull keychain, which had 17,000 likes!

Cubone was also the only Pokemon with two of the top 10 most popular 3D models, at both 1st and 10th position.

All 3 of the Gen 1 starters had a Pokemon model in the top 10 most popular, with Charmander in 3rd place, Bulbasaur in 5th place, and Squirtle in 6th place.

Generation 1 is BY FAR the Most Popular

It should come as no surprise that Generation 1 was the most popular Pokemon Generation.

An incredible 82% of the most popular Pokemon were from the original 151 that were released with the first generation of Pokemon games.

Remarkably, zero Pokemon from Generation 4, 5, or 6 made it into the top 100. Not even fan favorites like Lucario or Chandelure, who even made it into the popular Super Smash Bros and Pokken games because they were so popular among fans.

The full breakdown by Generation is:

1. Generation 1: 82 Pokemon
2. Generation 2: 11 Pokemon
3. Generation 3: 4 Pokemon
4. Generation 7: 3 Pokemon
5. Generation 4, 5, 6, 8: 0 Pokemon

And the full breakdown by the total number of likes is:

1. Generation 1: 187,963 likes
2. Generation 2: 14,395 likes
3. Generation 3: 7,884 likes
4. Generation 7: 2,221 likes

From Generation 7, Zeraora, Litten and Rowlet made it into the top 100.

From Generation 3, two models of Groudon made the top 100, as did one model of Castform, and one of Mudkip.

From Generation 2, two models of Tyranitar, Mareep and Togepi made the top 100, as did models of Teddiursa, Hoothoot, Chikorita, Entei, and Totodile.

Creality, a world-leading 3D printer brand, unveils the remarkable Ender-3 V3, a CoreXZ bed slinger. Like the Ender-3 V2, a big hit in 2020, this upgrade is determined to disrupt the market again with the new CoreXZ, 600mm/s speed, die-cast gantry & base, and Creality OS. It is meant to be a new pacesetter for consumer 3D printers.

CoreXZ for 600mm/s & Print Quality

Ender-3 V3 is the first 3D printer of Creality adopting CoreXZ, a flipped version of CoreXY. Specifically, the X and Z-axes are rigged together, allowing two high-torque motors to work in unison for quick response. It delivers a reality-defying printing speed of 600mm/s with 10000mm/s² acceleration, which is 12 times faster than a regular i3-style 3D printer, marking a new benchmark for bed slingers. 

CoreXZ also promises exceptional print quality, especially on the Z-axis. The precision linear shafts and timing belts minimizes gaps and deviations during transmission more efficiently than old-fashioned lead screws and V-wheels. Even better, the timing belts are tensioned automatically, no more manual calibrations.

Ultra Stable with Solid Build and More

Ender-3 V3 boasts a new metal build that feels premium. Both the gantry and base are die-cast with aerospace aluminum alloy as a single piece, the same tech used in high-end cars. Therefore, the printer is incredibly stable and durable. 

Built into the printhead is a G-sensor for vibration compensation (input shaping) to eliminate ringing or ghosting. Also, there are two part-cooling fans on the printhead, front and back. Their strong and evenly distributed wind keeps your prints in good shape. In addition, dynamic balancing is adopted for reduced printhead shaking. Gone is drooping, warping, or stringing.

New Top-notch Extruder Kit

The brand-new direct extruder kit. Enhanced by a bolster spring and a ball plunger, this extruder promises clog-free extrusion for more than 1000 hours. The nozzle and heatbreak are unified, which not only blocks heat creep but also allows for a quick swap with just one hand. 

Meanwhile, the nozzle is tipped with hardened steel to confidently handle high-strength engineering filaments. Also, a 60W ceramic heater surrounding the hotend takes the flow rate up to 32mm³/s, able to fully melt ABS, PETG, and other high-temp filaments on the fly.  

Keep 3D Printing Easy and Enjoyable

Ender-3 V3 runs with a fluent Creality OS (based on Klipper) powered by a snappy 1.2GHz dual-core CPU and an 8G ROM. With a single tap on the 4.3” touch screen, the self-check can complete auto leveling, input shaping, etc. And, the built-in WiFi is a must-have for remote control and monitoring.

Creality offers a sound software ecosystem for the printer. Creality Print slicer enables data-secure LAN printing in addition to rich presets for filaments. The Creality Cloud APP helps you keep an eye on printing wherever you are and offers a vast number of free 3D models. The APP and software will make 3D printing more enjoyable for everyone.

The Ender-3 V3 also comes with optional accessories like an AI camera, printer enclosure, Hyper-PLA filament, and more. 

About Creality
