Summary
APokemonfan artist crafted a Cubone hairpiece using a 3D printer and shared the finished product on social media. ThePokemonfan artist used their spouse’s hair to show off the Cubone hairpiece they crafted, and other fans chimed in with requests to have some made for themselves.
Known as the Lonely Pokemon, Cubone first appeared inPokemon Red and Blue. As a first-generation Ground Pokemon, Cubone evolves into Marowak at level 28. Cubone covers its face with a skull and wields a bone club that it uses to attack its enemies. However,Cubone’s Pokedex entriesthroughout the main series depict the Lonely Pokemon in an unfortunate light. It is said that Cubone wears the skull of its late mother and cries during the full moon. InPokemon Red and Blue, players are tasked with climbing the Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town and laying the ghost of Cubone’s mother, a level 30 Marowak, to rest.
WhileCubone remains a subject of debateamongPokemontrainers, one fan artist paid tribute to the Lonely Pokemon via their craft. A Reddit user named Numerous-Ad6314 shared four pictures of a Cubone hairpiece they made on the r/pokemon subreddit. According to the artist, they used a 3D printer and resin to make Cubone’s skull and bone club. The printing was done after some resin sculpting and the end of Cubone’s club was lengthened to make it easier to manage. In the pictures by Numerous-Ad6314, Cubone’s skull helmet was placed on top of the model’s hair, and the bone club acted as a pin that could go through the skull’s eye sockets cleanly. The model’s long hair held the resin skull and the bone club in place. Numerous-Ad6314 said that their spouse was the model depicted in the pictures they took.

Although otherfan tributes to Cubone have been done, that did not stop Numerous-Ad6314 from giving Cubone’s prominent features a new use. In the comments of the r/pokemon post, somePokemonfans praised the artist for their handiwork and asked if they had any plans to sell the Cubone hairpiece. Numerous-Ad6314 replied that shipping would be difficult since they hailed from India, but said they had plans to make a few more Cubone hairpieces due to the positive responses.
ThoughCubone and Marowak do not appear inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, they are fondly remembered by fans worldwide. WithPokemon Legends: Z-Ain development, only time will tell when Cubone and Marowak will make a comeback.
