I've decided to make a CaC contest. In each round, I will post the guidelines for the card. Contestants will have 3 days to submit the card here. At the end of that time, I will score the cards and the top half (rounded up) will move on to the next round, until there is a single winner. Cards will be scored as follows:

Picture (10 points)
5 - Description (Is the description of the card's picture satisfactory to visualize the illustration?)
5 - Relevance (Is the picture of a situation that the Pokémon could reasonably be expected to be in?)

Stats (25 points)
5 - HP (Is the HP an amount that is reasonable for the Pokémon's evolutionary stage and general strength?)
10 - Weakness/Resistance (Are the Weakness/Resistance to types that the Pokémon should be weak to/resist? Is damage increased/decreased by a reasonable amount?)
5 - Retreat Cost (Is the Retreat Cost reasonable for the Pokémon's size/weight and Speed stat?)
5 - Flavor text (Is the flavor text relevant? Is it a similar length to the flavor text on real cards?)

Poké-Power/Poké-Body (15 points)
5 - Relevance (Is the Poké-Power/Poké-Body an ability that the Pokémon could reasonably be expected to have?)
10 - Fairness (Is the Poké-Power/Poké-Body good enough, without being so good as to break the game?)

Attacks
10 - Relevance (Could it be reasonably expected that the Pokémon would use the attacks on the card?)
20 - Fairness (Are the attacks good enough, without being so good as to break the game?

Back to back posts merged. The following information has been added:

To join, simply post a card for this first set of guidelines.

Round 1: Rotom
  • It can be any of Rotom's 6 forms.
  • It can't be LV.X.
  • Its name can't have any prefixes or suffixes (For example, "Charon's Rotom" or "Rotom G" aren't allowed).

With 15 points for Poké-Power/Body, does that mean the card must have that quality? Or may we make cards with only attacks? Also, is it 30 points per attack or split amongst the number of attacks used? Lastly, what is the deadline for the Rotom?

Click to expand...

The Pokémon must have a Poké-Power or Poké-Body. If the card has 1 attack, up to 30 points are given for that attack. If the Pokémon has 2 attacks, 15 points are given for each attack.
 
Rotom
60 HP {P}
Basic Pokémon

Poké-POWER Appliance Switch
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for another Rotom and switch it with Rotom. (Any cards attached to this Pokémon, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) If you do, put Rotom on top of your deck. Shuffle your deck afterward. You can't use more than 1 Appliance Switch Poké-POWER each turn.
{P}{C} Shadow Particle Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon in play and put a damage counter on it.

Weakness: {D} (x2)
Resistance: {F} -30
Retreat Cost: {C}
Rotom is a Pokémon known to possess appliances. Six documented forms are known; however, it's unknown just how many different forms a Rotom can take. Lv. 18 #479
Picture: We see Rotom (its original form) standing right next to a hair dryer in a dark bathroom. Rotom appears to be in a pose in which it's about to possess the hair dryer.

Just for the record, the {P} type represents the fact that Rotom is part-Ghost-type in the video games.
