Bulbasaur Ball

Bulbasaur (Japanese: フシギダネ Fushigidane) is a dual-type Grass/Poison Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It evolves into Ivysaur starting at level 16, which evolves into Venusaur starting at level 32. Along with Charmander and Squirtle, Bulbasaur is one of the three first partner Pokémon of Kanto available at the beginning of Pokémon Red, Green, Blue, FireRed, and LeafGreen.

The little Bulbasaur is a work by @SnapPrint3D_Sup, Thanks for your work!!

Bulbasaur with two available variants: one with vines on the bulb and one without. Choose the bulb print plate you prefer.

Custom Bulbasaur -Inspired Poké Ball:

This custom Poké Ball is inspired by Bulbasaur . The design incorporates the inner mechanism created by MrFozzie, while I used Fusion 360 to create the top and bottom shells. All parts are designed to be printed in a single color and glued together—no AMS is required.

Improvements Over the Original Design:

• The hinge mechanism has been simplified and optimized for printing in place.

• Inner and outer button designs were modified to eliminate overhangs, enabling support-free printing.

• The print profile was designed for easy printing, with increased perimeters on the hinge for greater durability.

• Supports and seams were manually added for better results.

   

Features and Options:

• The outer parts feature variable layer heights for a smoother finish.

• Two hinge versions are available: a print-in-place hinge and a separate hinge. Choose the version that best suits your needs.

Assembly Instructions:

1. View the Assembly Mechanism: Refer to the video of the original Poké Ball's design for detailed guidance.

    

2. 

   Glue Components:

   • Attach the top and bottom pieces to the hinge mechanism.

   • The piece with a hole in the button mechanism should go on the top.

   • The button does not need to be glued. Insert it into the ring, then glue the ring to the hinge mechanism.

Final Product Features:

This fully functional Poké Ball is designed to replicate the real thing as closely as possible. It uses only 3D-printed parts and super glue to create:

• A hinge that opens to 90 degrees and locks securely, mirroring the authentic mechanism.

• A button that hides its mechanism for added realism.

• Notches and grooves in the parts to ensure perfect alignment during assembly.
