I wanted to create a Pokemon-themed checkers piece for a gift and came across the mandalorian checker piece by nat_a_cyborg and really loved the textured outer ring they used on their design. So I started with their design and removed all the mandalorian theming and replaced it with Pokemon theming. I am a sucker for multicolor prints, but do not have a MMU as I am waiting for the XL to ship. So I made the gcode work with a "normal" mk3s using the M600 (filament swap) command as a custom tool change gcode. There are only 10 color changes (most of them close together in time, too), which makes this a low investment of extra time for the extra wow factor of the multicolor print. 

I have also included a version that has the pokeball pattern raised/indented to make it easier to paint if you do not want to deal with the color changes and/or do not have the necessary filament colors.

The color order for the print in the pictures is the following:

  1. Blue
  2. Black
  3. Blue
  4. Black
  5. Red
  6. White
  7. Blue
  8. Black
  9. Red
  10. Blue

You should double check that the size works for your game board and if you need to scale it. I would recommend only scaling in the x-y plane and leaving the z scale the same, as you will add more color changes required if you scale the z height.

I used following filaments in my print:

  • Jessie Premium PLA 1.75mm X Soul Black Glitter
  • Jessie Premium PLA 1.75mm X 3DPN Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
  • Inland Red PLA+
  • Inland Light Blue PLA+
