Summary

  • A Pokemon fan artist crocheted Chimchar, Monferno, and Infernape dolls, impressing fans with their creativity and attention to detail.
  • Chimchar evolves into Monferno and Infernape, with Infernape being a fast and versatile sweeper in battles.
  • The crochet dolls were crafted with attention to detail, with tails and flames added, receiving praise from Pokemon trainers.

A passionate Pokemon fanatic, who specializes in art, skillfully created a set of beloved characters – Chimchar, Monferno, and Infernape – as adorable dolls using crochet. This dedicated artist showcased the fiery trio on social media, where they received praise from fellow fans for their innovative ideas and the intricate details in their hand-crafted Pokemon dolls.

In the world of Pokemon, Chimchar is often referred to as the ‘Chimp Pokemon’. It made its debut in ‘Pokemon Diamond and Pearl’, being the Fire-type starter for the Sinnoh region, while Turtwig and Piplup were its counterparts as starters. At level 14, Chimchar transforms into Monferno, adding Fighting to its types. Further evolution at level 36 turns it into Infernape. An advanced Infernape is a swift and multi-faceted attacker, employing moves such as Flamethrower, Close Combat, and Throat Chop. You can find Chimchar in ‘Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’ once you’ve upgraded the Terarium’s Polar Biome.

Due to Chimchar’s immense popularity in the Pokemon series, a dedicated fan took it upon themselves to create a crocheted tribute to this simian Pokemon. On the r/Pokemon subreddit, an individual named andre4k showcased a crochet set featuring Chimchar, Monferno, and Infernape. These dolls were artfully arranged on a miniature table and ladder for a photograph that symbolized each Pokemon’s athletic prowess. The Chimchar doll was made with light brown and deep orange yarn, while Monferno was crafted using a lighter shade of orange and darker hues of brown and blue. The Infernape crochet figure was created with white and yellow yarn, incorporating some of the deeper orange used for the Chimchar doll as well.

Pokemon Fan Crafts Crochet Dolls Of Chimchar, Monferno, And Infernape

Andre4k also adorned tails onto Monferno and Infernape using yellow and red yarn for Monferno’s tail tip, while adding flames to Infernape’s head crown. These three Pokemon were assembled into a single image which was later shared by Andre4k. It is worth noting that these aren’t the first crafted items made by Andre4k; they had already created an amazing Regigigas doll back in late 2024. The proportions of each crochet doll were highly praised by Pokemon trainers. Interestingly, it was Andre4k’s girlfriend who helped position Chimchar, Monferno, and Infernape during the photo session. Additionally, other fans shared fond memories associated with Chimchar and the games where it initially appeared.

As a fellow gamer, let me say that while some starting Pokémon like Charmander, Torchic, and Litten are always solid choices, I firmly believe that Chimchar and its evolutions hold their own as top-tier Fire-type Pokémon in the franchise. With Pokemon Legends: Z-A set to drop later this year, we’ll just have to wait and see if we’re lucky enough to have the Chimchar line join us on our next adventure!
