How to Create a Folding Surprise Pokéball with Pikachu

Let’s have some fun making a folding surprise Pokéball that hides Pikachu inside! This is a great activity for Pokémon fans and a fun way to practice drawing. Are you ready to start?

Materials Needed

First, gather these materials:

• Markers
• Paper
• Coloring tools (like crayons or colored pencils)
• Scratch paper (to keep your table clean)

Step 1: Prepare Your Paper

1. Fold the Paper: Take the top edge of your paper and fold it down to meet the bottom edge. Make sure it lines up nicely and press the fold well.
2. Create the Top Flap: Unfold the top flap back up to the top edge, pressing it down again.
3. Flip and Repeat: Turn the paper over and do the same folding with the top flap.

Step 2: Draw the Pokéball

1. Position Your Scratch Paper: Put your scratch paper under your drawing paper to stop markers from going through.
2. Draw the Circle: Draw a big circle for the Pokéball. The top half should be above the fold and the bottom half below it.
3. Add Details: Draw a smaller circle in the center and a line to split the top and bottom halves.

Step 3: Color the Pokéball

1. Coloring: Color the sections between the lines and circles. Take your time and have fun!
2. Open the Drawing: Open your drawing to see the Pokéball.

Step 4: Draw Pikachu

1. Position for Drawing: Make sure you draw everything below the top fold and above the bottom fold so it stays hidden when folded.
2. Draw Pikachu’s Head: Start with an upside-down U-shape for Pikachu’s head.
3. Add Ears: Draw two long, curved lines for Pikachu’s ears, connecting them to the head.
4. Draw Eyes and Mouth: Add two circles for eyes, smaller circles inside for highlights, and a curved “W” for the mouth. Draw a big U-shape below the mouth for a smile.
5. Add Cheeks and Arms: Draw half circles for Pikachu’s cheeks and upside-down U-shapes for his arms, keeping them above the bottom fold.

Step 5: Final Touches

1. Color Pikachu: Now color Pikachu! You can take your time to make it look just right.
2. Add Highlights: Add a white highlight to the Pokéball to make it shiny and some shading for a 3D effect.

Step 6: Reveal Your Creation

1. Open the Pokéball: On the count of three, open your creation and say “Pikachu!”
2. Add Extra Details: Feel free to add more Pokémon or details around Pikachu, keeping them within the folds.

Conclusion

Great job! You’ve made a folding surprise Pokéball with Pikachu inside. Remember, the most important part is to have fun and enjoy drawing. It’s okay if your drawings look different; being creative is all about expressing yourself. Keep drawing and have a fantastic time!
