Summary

This originally started off as a joke that was posted on some Montreal Pokemon Go chat groups, and someone made a change.org petition for it, so I decided to take it up a notch and create a 3D printed version of the Montreal Pikachu with Traffic Cone Hat.

This is the 5th version of it (and probably my last) so here it is in case anyone wants one of their own!
