The way it rolls back forward when it closes seems like one of those wonderful little coincidences that feels too good to be accidental, yet here we are.
i got into engineering during a degree in 3D animation, and im amazed when i hear people taught themselves CAD! even the most intuitive CAD software out there feels strange to me. but blender has some good tools for getting measurements and making it work, if you know where to look for them!
i don't. it's an abomination. blender is not made for this. blender is made to make DIGITAL assets. 3d models for games or movies. everything animated. IT IS NOT CAD SOFTWARE!!!!
i literally just watched you build this and i still don't believe it works- all of that packed into such a tiny ball is insane, what an amazing project and outcome!!!
This is insane! It wiggles, opens and closes and plays the sound effects all by itself! You made the most feature complete Pokéball and it's awesome. Technology is incredible!
As a pokemon nerd for life, my jaw is on the ground and need to own one of these in my day. This is something I never thought I'd see in my lifetime. Absolutely fantastic.
me, after skipping around in the video: "aw well yea, many people made this before, though this one needed some better paint, I dont see why this wa- IT CAN MOVE?!?!?!" and then I was sold, went back and watched. good build. Can't wait to see a 2.0.
So many TH-camrs trying to create the perfect PokeBall but I believe you actually did it! The one improvement I would love to see is a hidden barrel hinge instead of an hinge on the outside.
Yeah but its not REAL, if i bought one off her i cant go outside and catch real animals like lions and tigers or elephants in the pokeball so for me its useless. Come back again when somebody creates a REAL one that you can actually catch animals inside of them, then i'll think about buying one.
the pokemon company should hire you , this was soo cool , and sick . seeing it move for the first time was so cool , my childhood was brought back and just inner child was happy , great videooo
1:33 idea: you can hide the rocker, by making it spin around the circumference of the ball under the inner shell, the weight can be elongated to the shape of the ball or a partial ring or sphere segment. When the ball is closed it won’t matter in the insides are spinning or not. So an alternate idea is to make the plates on the inside rotate opposite ways or just one spin, and only have one plate actually metal or heavy while the others are a painted light material. The entire half dome inside spinning will off centre the balls weight, causing a wiggle, both sides spinning will be more powerful😮 If you want to avoid the spinning insides, a hidden spinning rail weight would work just as well. To get a decent internal lighting, using cracked/pin hole fibre optic strands, and an ultra bright LED. That’s if you want any insane inside effect.
I guess selling something made of that much metal that weighs that much might be too pricey and prone to causing damages. You just know a dumb kid is gonna conk that not-plastic thing onto a person's or dog's head. In that perspective it might not pass most country's toy safety regulations either. At best you can probably market them to adults, but Pokemon rarely ever pander merch to anything but the upmost impressionable of monkey-brained midgets, AKA children. And even then, a lot of adults can't be expected to be responsible with them either.
they probably had did, but the technology 30 years ago wasn't quite the same, and whether it is back then or now, it would have been a relatively expensive merch this build isn't even meant to be thrown (you gotta sell this to kids somehow)
@@Kensuke0987I'm wondering how much "padding" would be needed for it to be throwable (into grass or carpet probably not a lot needed, onto wood or stone even the outside probably needs to be absorbent too, probably not a lot of materials that could be used for this and that would look right)
@@Rerbun probably not padding. it just has to be made of a durable construction and material. 3D-printing might not be the way; it has to be plastic injection molding - this is what they use to make modern billiard balls. the hinge and the electronics housing should have really tight tolerances too so that they don't wear down from all the jostling and also be provided some water-resistance.
I've watched this video before on another account a while back, but I'm watching it again today just because I find this creation SO badass. Good work!!!
For future variants: Using a QtPy running MicroPython may work a bit nicer for this project. The QtPy (especially when paired with an additional memory chip, also sold by adafruit) should have enough memory for small audio files. This removes the need for the SD Card, at least, and should allow you to save space from the sd card module and wiring. You can replace the servos with microservos, or even small stepper motors (although the stepper drivers may take up some extra space, but shouldn’t take any more than the servos do) Alternately: because your inner layer is nice and thick, you may be able to get away with a stepper motor based gyroscope (potential for stabilizing in midair throws? Or for rolling autonomously?). Or a spring resist solenoid.
Is this gon be in your workshop to buy? this is awesome, like really nice job on this the details the small things sound effects inside and outside. good work
Great work! I really agree, that the closing of the pokeball kinda feels to be the most satisfying part of the entire sequence. I kinda have the feeling it's because usually you only see the opening, so the brain is already done, and then the ball is like: "Surprise! I'm closing and ready to go for the next toss." I kinda wanna see a second function so when the ball is tossed, it opens up and a self inflating pokemon pops out or something. xD
Random fact: most depictions depict Pokeballs as having a digital dimension that serves as an ideal environment for the pokemon in question. They also show the balls as having non-transparent lids, which has left to an occasional joke about "the wrong pokeball", be it in the anime or by the fandom. The Pokemon Special/Pokemon Adventures manga, however, makes the lids semi-teansparent so it shows ehat pokemon is currently in the ball, or if the ball is empty. It also makes the apricorn based pokeballs more gimmicky than they already were conpared to modern ones by requiring you to hit a specific spot on a given pokemon for the apricorn ones to work. The manga also had Rival Silver be the only one of the Johto protagonists that throws their ball normally (Gold uses a pool cue to launch his, and Crystal kicks hers at her targets).
@@theamazingspooderman2697 looks like somebody has not looked at supplementary material... Or, for that matter, the item's cameo are n smash bros back when the series had trophies. In Melee, Brawl and Smash 4, the pokeball's trophy descriptions specifically mentions having what I described, and Sakurai was generally pretty diligent about making sure the info was accurate, if spoilery. And I agree, the bit where they shrink was a retcon. However, it did not debut in Legends Arceus, it debuted in the Pokemon Adventures Manga, towards the end of the RGB arc. Next time, look a little harder kiddo.
You think if it's made of petg fdm you can throw it? or use abs like resin? Or is that a no no with the internal components? Other than the counterweight depending on how stuck it is and how solid the soldering is it should be able to withstand a normal throw on grass?
@@KovoN only on the American cards and the very old Japanese cards, it seems to be a design error that was copied over but never fixed on American cards like it was on Japanese
This is amazing. would love to see you 3D print small Pokemon to throw the Pokeball at and it could somehow catch them and if it doesnt then a spring in the ball ejects them. That would be super cool :)
Girl you are such an inspiration! Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to make cool stuff, but I gave up on my hopes and dreams because so much stuff happened and it became unbearable... To prevent myself from more self harm and not wanting to live anymore, I just deal with health now and finding a job, but I feel like my inner child can live through these creations. You got yourself a new sub.
For the next iteration; you could probably hide the weight in the top half if you used some sort of pulley system to slide it back and forth. Assuming you want to make a second version, and assuming you want the inside to be as clean looking as the outside is. How you're gonna get the ball to shrink and grow like in the show however, I have no idea :D (not to mention catch living beings)
How amazing. The best part is actually the part that opens and closes by itself. The inside is very beautiful. The only thing I would change is the shade of red, I think it should be lighter.
That is absolutely awesome. Well done and congrats. I fear for the person who figures out how to shrink something and pull it into the ball then it comes back out regular size again... they might disappear suddenly
@angrybudgie96 sadly with the last 100 years as a reference it would be naive to believe technology like that wouldn't be kept under lock and key and used in the worst possible ways. As much as I would love to witness that being created and what awesome things could come from it, mankind in general doesn't need that technology lol
omg the GLEE I felt at the first successful mechanical test, just seeing the thing move the way it's supposed to! This is so damn cool. Also, love the editing! The "Test, test test" bit in particular was *chef's kiss*
you’d have to put like a neopixel or some sort of addressable rgb led in the button! not impossible, but I liked the brightness of the one I bought for this project so I didn’t wanna replace it. unfortunately it wasn’t addressable but I was okay with the trade off
Jeez, here I thought I made a realistic Pokeball lol. Very cool, the sparkly red is nice! My favorite part of the Pokeball growing up was how they were small and expanded to full size when you clicked them. You should try to somehow make that lol.
This was SO cool. Im so inspired to try more electronics in my costumes. And since it ended up being smaller than it could've have been (because you succeeded in keeping the electronics compact)... Would you ever consider adding shock absorption to make this throwable? In my head i automatically thought mini springs, airy foam and a cold casted silicone shell.
in theory now that you have the inner working sorted and working, you could make alternate shells for it as well and have different pokeball types. Good job on the project!
It's awesome, I'd say it's almost perfect and hits every aspect you aimed for but you could ever make a 2.0 with a couple changes you can make that will make it even more authentic! - I'd upgrade the light to be RGB so it can change colors depending on wither or not it caught or failed a catch. Similar to how it works on let's go Eevee/Pikachu. - Another cool feature would be to add a RNG chance for it to fail not just at the beginning of the loop but between every step with a lowering probability the further in it goes. i.e. 10% chance on the first twitch, 25% on the second, 33% on the third (it always feels like when it fails it's the last one 😭). - Lastly, this one might be a pain in the ass but upgrade the speaker/sound quality on the file so it can get better quality audio. Granted that + the RGB light might require a stronger battery/power supply. There's a couple more changes that could be awesome but would require so much more work. i.e. internal padding to be able to actually throw it without worrying it would break. Having some sort of impact sensor so you'd be able to trigger the same action without pressing the button but instead it happens after landing on the floor. However those would be so much more work and outside the original scope of the project it might require a massive rework for it to happen. And considering how well the shake works with the current weight + counter weight, it'll be really difficult to get another serendipitous moment just like that. All in all, this was an awesome project and really cool video to watch and will be subbing to watch more cool builds like this!
So freaking awesome! Maybe if it's possible to use different colors LED you can use red for the blinking and yellow when it's successful. Also like someone said maybe some sort of bright flash inside the ball for both fail (more visible) or even on a success (you'll see it through the middle as some sort of pressure release) If this got mass produced I'm 100% sure it will sell like crazy.
It's the best one I've seen so far! The only features left that are possible to make it have in a near future (I THINK) are the ability to throw them without destroying them (at least when it hits the grass or soil) and some sort of light that comes out of it. I don't think it is possible to make it go small and big again with one button, but the hardest part would be to find a real pokemon to test if it works 😂
Girl you have talent! When did this dream start and what did you have to learn and do to build this working pokeball! New big fan here. Love your content!
You are awesome. This is so cool. I don’t know if your current lay out allows but instead of having the servo hold the poke ball close you could have a the servo move a metal or carbon fiber latch. So the tension isn’t on the gear but on the latch.
Awesome work😍 I don't know if it was already suggested, but now you could insert a holographic system that shows a random Pokemon everytime the catch doesn't end well!
Now make a working pokemon

All in all, this was an awesome project and really cool video to watch and will be subbing to watch more cool builds like this!
That's amazing! We've all wanted to use these as kids!
Great job.
I am so admirative for the creativity to bring my hobby to live, thank you for the pleasure
This looks really cool! This video deserves every view it has and way more!
So freaking awesome!
Maybe if it's possible to use different colors LED you can use red for the blinking and yellow when it's successful.
Also like someone said maybe some sort of bright flash inside the ball for both fail (more visible) or even on a success (you'll see it through the middle as some sort of pressure release)
If this got mass produced I'm 100% sure it will sell like crazy.
if you gave me a year and a team i couldn't have made something that looked that good. You're very skilled!
Add sensors to detect collision when you throw it to start the catching process! Sick project!
It's the best one I've seen so far!
The only features left that are possible to make it have in a near future (I THINK) are the ability to throw them without destroying them (at least when it hits the grass or soil) and some sort of light that comes out of it.
I don't think it is possible to make it go small and big again with one button, but the hardest part would be to find a real pokemon to test if it works 😂
Girl you have talent! When did this dream start and what did you have to learn and do to build this working pokeball! New big fan here. Love your content!
This is... this is honestly fantastic. I would 100% buy one

Whatever Pokémon is like:
“LOL! Smell ya never!”
I've wanted this my entire life. It's beautiful. 😭
I did enjoy the video very much and I absolutely love it I don’t think anyone could’ve done it better

For all Michal Scott fans out there:
I know exactly what you thinking.
Be proud of your creation
You are awesome. This is so cool. I don’t know if your current lay out allows but instead of having the servo hold the poke ball close you could have a the servo move a metal or carbon fiber latch. So the tension isn’t on the gear but on the latch.
A working pokeball would shrink and grow this is just the 10,000,000th pokeball replica ever designed
This is the coolest Pokémon gadget make I’ve ever seen! Great job! Def subscribed to your channel and can’t wait to see what you make next!❤
Awesome work😍 I don't know if it was already suggested, but now you could insert a holographic system that shows a random Pokemon everytime the catch doesn't end well!
all the hard work was definitely worth it!! you have definitely inspired the crap outta me!! thank you
Impressive! Looking for the follow-up when you add the shrinking ray
This is the coolest recreation ever!
Great to hear someone actually know the shrinking lore’
