So the first row is simple enough, make a chain of 7. Then on the second row, turn your work, and starting in the second chain from the hook sc 6 down one side, and keep going to sc 6 up the other side as well.

Then continue with rounds 3 and 4 normally (image 1. below). Round 5 can be a bit tricky again. This is how we’re going to create the first zig-zag. We want to go halfway and then turn the work and skip to the other side. So first sc 3 normally (image 2. below), then we’re going to pretend the next 6 stitches aren’t there. I find it easier to turn my work (image 3. below), count six stitches, and then insert my hook into the 7th stitch (image 4. below), continuing as normal for the rest of the round.

At the end of round 6 we’re going to chain 4 (image 2. below). This will become the other side of the zig zag. Chain 4, then insert your hook back into the first stitch of round six (image 3. below), like you would if there were no chain and you were simply starting round 7. Then you’ll skip stitches like you did above. When you get to where the chain 4 is you’re going to have to crochet in the front or back loop only, since there isn’t a proper sc to insert into.

After that you’ll change colour, and thankfully be done. I like to take a length of yellow yarn and whipstitch the open parts (where you skipped stitches and chained) closed to give the tail a neater shape. Hopefully that explanation wasn’t too confusing!
If it was, you can try to crochet the tail as a flat piece instead – to build up the thickness of the tail, you could make 2 of the flat versions and then stitch them together.
when it says “ch 1, turn”, the next sc will be in the second chain from the hook (ie. always skip the first stitch when turning, since it’s just the chain we did at the end to get the right height).

Flat Tail

R1. (in Yellow) ch 6
R2-R4. ch 1, turn, sc 6
R5. ch 1, turn, sc 3
R6. ch 1, turn, sc 3, ch 2
R7-R8. ch 1, turn, sc 5
R9. ch 1, turn, sc 2
R10-R11. (in Brown) ch 1, turn sc
Finish off, leaving a long enough tail to attach to the body.

Press the tail flat and that’s the end of all the crocheting! Stuff the head, body, and legs. The legs don’t require much stuffing. Everything is ready for assembly.

I like to pin all the pieces together to make sure they’re positioned properly when before I attach them. I usually find them easiest to attach in this order: legs, tail (stitch on back detail), arms, head, ears. I like to attach the head first because it makes it easier to ensure the ears are even.

After you’ve attached the tail, but before you attach the head, make sure you remember to embroider on the two stripes Pikachu has at the back. I usually use the same yarn I’m using to attach the tail to the body.
