This thread is for the members of Team Torchic to make their Pokémon with Imakuni? in their names and ridiculous mechanics to match. Here is the list of Team Torchic members:
Team Torchic:
Captain: Burninating_Torchic
2. dragonspy900
3. ZoraJolteon
4. DragonSol
5. PenguinMaster (Temporary fill-in for Ancient Pokemon Trainer)
You will make 2 cards in this round. The 2 Pokémon you choose from the full slate of 386 are completely up to you. The same Pokémon cannot be used twice by this team.
Your 2 cards will be graded individually using the same rubric, then your score will be averaged to make your final score. All of the cards will be averaged together to make up the team average.
Here are the specifications of whether descriptors (i.e. Dark, Light, Shining), owners (i.e. Brock's, Aqua's, Sonic's), dual-types, Ultima types, etc. are present in round seven. And the rubric:
Descriptors: Permitted; Dark, Light, Shining, and Pokémon-* only
Owners: Required, Imakuni? Only, Must Come Before Descriptor
Dual-Types: Permitted
Ultima Types: No
Multi-Prize Mechanics: Permitted, Pokémon-ex Allowed
Chaos Emerald Mechanics: No
Legal Stages: Baby, Basic, Stage 1 and Stage 2
Fourth Generation: No
Name--3 points. Make sure you get the entire name right. Don't forget the all-important "?" in Imakuni?.
Picture--3 points. Try to make it descriptive.
Type(s)--5 points. Single-types and dual-types are acceptable. Make sure they fit.
HP--5 points. Make sure it fits the card well. Too much or too little and I dock you.
Weakness/Resistance--5 points. If a double-Weakness can fit (it can on a dual-type or a Pokémon-ex), it can have 2 Weaknesses; otherwise, give it only 1. Either way, up to 2 Resistances. Make sure they fit.
Retreat Cost--5 points. Again, make it fit the card.
Pokemon Power/Attacks--30 points. No more than three total per card, and the card must have at least 1 attack. You can have 1 attack only, 2 attacks only, 1 attack and 1 power, 2 attacks and 1 power, etc. on your card. If you do 1, it's worth 30; if you do 2, they're worth 15 each; and if you do 3, they're worth 10 each. Also, I will be grading the effects of the cards based on how ridiculous the effect is, not how proper it is. Which means watch the grammar, but let your imagination run wild when creating a ridiculous Imakuni? effect.
Rarity--3 points. Again, make sure it fits the card well. Just for the record, the rarity symbol will be white on all of these cards.
Explanations--8 points. May sound harsh, but it helps to explain what ridiculousness this card is meant to ensue.
Strategy--Not in play in this round. Imakuni?'s cards are unplayable in a normal environment, so strategizing around them is impossible.
Penalties--There are penalties for use of proper TCG mechanics on an Imakuni? card, as some of the usual ones.
Round 3 Possible Total--67 points.
If both teams have average scores of 39 points or lower, both teams go to the boardroom.
This thread is for Team Torchic's cards. Please do not look in Team Techno Fluff's thread of their cards. If you do, you could possibly be fired in the boardroom.
The deadline for round 8 is August 11 at 11:59 PM Central (that's 12:59 AM Eastern, 9:59 PM Pacific, and 5:59 AM GMT).
