Pokemonfan andMinecraftplayer brikit97 shared a look at their full recreation of the entire Pokedex from Generation 1 inMinecraft. Basing the designs off of the Generation 3 sprites, brikit97 made a complete roster of the first 151 Pokemon from the franchise. They started by mining a ridiculous amount of dirt - 62,500 blocks of it, to be exact - and then proceeded to build sixteen wool factories in all the necessary colors for the Pokemon sprites. This then required them to collect dozens of sheep and wait for the wool factories to produce enough colored wool for them to start crafting. With all the essential materials collected, brikit97 was able to start crafting the original starterPokemon and their evolutions. They ran into some roadblocks, such as running out of black wool for the borders, running out of space on the platform the sprites were built on, and needing to keep going AFK to get more wool from the factories. But after 120 hours of dedicated work, the Generation 1 Pokedex was complete.
Fans ofMinecraftandPokemonalike were impressed by brikit97’s accomplishment, applauding the dedication that was needed to complete such a massive collection of builds. When asked if they would continue with morePokemoncreations, brikit97 noted that they were unsure, due to the massive time sink of such a project. With morenew Pokemon on the way, it would be an incredible feat for oneMinecraftplayer to produce sprites of all the existing 1008 Pokemon.
