This is the big one. The most outrageous and insanely huge pattern I’ve found anywhere on the internet. It’s a combination of the first 5 generations of Pokemon, using generation 5 sprites. It’s basically a combination of the separate 5 epic pokemon generations cross stitch patterns we posted last week.
It’s a massive 798,000 stitches, with the finished piece well over a meter wide and tall on 14 count (almost 1.5m x 2m). If you attempt it, I salute you!
Stitch Count: 798w x 1000h
Finished Size: 57″ x 71.5″ or 145cm x 182cm (14ct)
Number of colors: 234 (DMC)

A few people have requested both color and black and white versions of the pattern. I’m working of this currently, however, due to its size the program keeps crashing…
Thinking of tackling this epic cross stitch? We have some great guides like where to find super large aida, how to tackle epic cross stitches, cross stitch gridding techniques and how to keep up motivation when tackling epic cross stitches.
Lastly, we have a few updates from people still stitching the pattern. First off we have Leona Walker who has managed to complete the whole thing in only 6 years! Kudos on how awesome this looks! We can’t wait for the first-ever finish!
Secondly we have the mother of Reddit user HerenJames who completed the pattern in 8 years!

Sorry I am new to cross stitch, I was just wondering, which type of holder would you recommend for this, I can’t seem to find an Easy Clip Rotating Frame large enough for this project.
Should I just use a hoop and do sections at a time? If so, which would you recommend?
thank you
Hi,
Depending on the style you like to work with, you could either break down the pattern into smaller pieces (which you then stitch together) allowing for a smaller frame, or use a hoop/freehand.
Just finished the upper left corner!
*I mean right corner, haha
Hi, in chart top right color, what is this symbol, in the color table? \\ (column 2, second to last from the bottom symbol)
It seems to have one number transposed on another, so it’s difficult to tell…
Thanks!
That’s 375. The page number has been placed over it due to the length of the color list!
Hi! I know this is up to the makers, but I have quite a big question. I’m currently on the top right corner, having finished the top left corner, and I’m just concerned because the colours between the panels don’t match up. For example, the Tyranitar colour in the top left is 966 (a really vibrant seafoam greeny thing) but the colour in the top right is grey (642). I don’t mean to be nit-picky or ungrateful for the work put in, as it is so so incredible, but this goes for quite a few, and I just wanted to check if this was correct.
Apologies!
Hey Molly,
We don’t hear much from the original pattern creator anymore, however, we are aware of the differences.
Some people stitch it exactly as it’s designed, and it’s very very hard to tell they change. However, others prefer to make their own choice and edit a few of the colors.
I would suggest doing whatever you feel most comfortable with!
Thank you so much! I didn’t mean to sound rude or anything, just wanted to double check as I felt unsure. I am very grateful for the response 🙂
How many strands of thread are you supposed to use?
Hey Holly,
That depends on what count fabric you’re using and the coverage you like. We recently published a post on how many strands of thread you should use that might be of help!
So I’m going to be using a 14 count how many strands would you recommend for that? Thank you!
If you’re stitching on white aida, I would use 2 strands.
