The people at chinese-tools.com made a lot of lists for those wishing to learn words by category. Of course part of your monitor with your hands is not quite as elegant as using Pleco flashcards, so I converted them. There are some 800 cards; the lists are:
fruits
colour names
love
flowers
clothing
astrology
chinese onomatopoeias
animal sounds
the human body
children's clothing
home
illnes
face
internal systems
men's clothing
doctor
hand and foot
women's clothing
injury
muscles and skeleton
accessories
first aid
internal organs
hair
hospital
reproductive organs
beauty
departments
family
dentist
relationships
optician
emotions
pregnancy
life events
childbirth
vegetables
directions
chinese glossary of grammar terms
chinese ethnic minorities
As they are not based on existing flashcards or dictionary entries, I do not know how well sound works. It works for some of them. Also I am not sure how to create subcategories, so they will all be separate categories. All the seperate files are also attached, for people who want to pick only one or two.
I also attach a file with the Python 2.7 code I used to create these (obviously I wasn't going to do that by hand). Might be useful for someone. You need beautifulsoup4 and requests as well. If you only want to convert accent-pinyin to number-pinyin you can do that with just Python.
TL;DR: download combined.txt
EDIT: new version with some unknown characters fixed thanks to sobriaebritas
