This is the first challenge of the Apprentice: LA.

This challenge will consist on making Pokemon EX.

These are the criteria:

Must be Stage 2
Retreat Cost of at least 3
Double Weakness
Double Resistance
No D/P
No Duplicates
No Ultima

This is the Rubric to refresh your memory:

Parameters for Fake Cards:

Name: 3/3
Self Explanitory. Owner's and Delta Species Symbols count!

Type: 5/5
Again, pretty basic.

Evolutionary Stage: 3/3
Stages must be stated. If an evolution, state what it evolves from.

HP: 5/5
No pokemon is invincable.

Picture: 10/10
One of the biggest categories, in my opinion. Give me a great explanation of what is there. FakeImaging is welcome.

Attacks/Powers/Bodies: 30/30
No more than 3 in any combination. They must balance. No UberBrokeness or Imakuni?s Attacks, unless stated otherwise. Only 1 Power and Only 1 Body.

Bottom Stats: 10/10
Weakness, Resistance, Retreat Cost. Basic stuff.

Flavor Text: 4/4
Just like the old Wizards cards, make up a line of text corresponding to the Pokemon being CaC'd. It can be a Quote from the anime or a video game, or a pokedex entry.

Strategy: 30/30
Tell me how you would use this card in Modified Format. Be very descriptive and talk amongst teammates.

Total Possible Points: 100

I will open two threads for each team. Remember the rules posted on the original thread.

I will grade on Sunday, Feb. 11 @ Midnight CST.

Good Luck.

May this be a DP Pokemon? Are Ultima types allowed?

 

[NidoPrince]

No to both.

....editing.....

 

[Cardz5000]

can the cards be in D/P style

 

[NidoPrince]

d/p style? specify.

 

[Burninating_Torchic]

You have yet to explain flavor text. Why do you say "corresponding to the picture"? Flavor text isn't supposed to have anything to do with the picture, just the Pokemon in general.

 

[NidoPrince]

Flavor Text is basically going to be a line or two about the pokemon being CaC'd. It can be a Quote from the anime, a pokedex entry, or a quote from a game.

 

[spoinkmaster]

Excuse me, could we use images off of like, DeviantART or something for the Picture section?

 

[Burninating_Torchic]

Excuse me, could we use images off of like, DeviantART or something for the Picture section?

That's TOTALLY cheating.
The purpose of the picture section is to use your own imagination, not somebody else's.

 

[ensignmerlin]

d/p style? specify.

D/P style means + for weaknesses, as well as attacks that require no Energy.. Dark and Metal are basic Energies with no effects... Got that off of Pokebeach...

Edit:
For the picture, can we use Sugimori Pokemon and use our own effects and backrounds?

 

[calvin_0]

what is Ultima type?

 

[Burninating_Torchic]

what is Ultima type?

Don't worry about it. He said it's not allowed, so you don't need to worry about it if you don't know what it is.

 

[spoinkmaster]
