Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

toj1988's CaC Apprentice Contest - Team 2's Thread

Here is the pokepower for reference

Poke-Power: Thinking Cap
Once during your turn, you may draw challenge your opponent. If your opponent accepts your challenge, place the top card of your deck face down next to Slowking. Your opponent guesses what this card is. If your opponent guesses incorrectly, all energy may be counted as (P) until the end of your turn, and return the card to your hand. If your opponent guesses correctly, discard the card you drew. If your opponent refuses your challenge, draw until you have 6 cards in your hand.

It is VERY wordy, and very hard to follow what is happening. Also, What do they guess? The name of the card? The type (Trainer, supporter, stadium, prime, energy)??? Also, What does having the energy count as (p) Help??
 
Cacturne lv. 68
Stage 1 - evolves from Cacnea
Weakness - (R)x2
Resistance -
Retreat cost - (C)(C)

Flavor: After many years of training and battling as an Elite 4 Pokémon, Cacturne expels a different type of poison.

Now I just need the last attack, but I'll get that on my lunch or something.
 
It helps because if you pair it with the Xatu 1. DCE will count as :psychic: :psychic: and 2. It charges up Xatu's attack faster for better damage.
It was supposed to be a fun 'Blaine's Quiz' type challenge, but if it's too hard to follow, then sure. I will take a look at it.
 
Metagross 120 HP :metal:
Stage 2: Evolves from Metang

Picture: Metagross is in the middle of Steven's battling room, facing Steven's Skarmory. The Skarmory's leg is pictured rising up into the air, and a bit of its tail is visible. Metagross is squatted with its stomach touching the PokeBall pattern in the middle of the room, right arm fully extended and glowing in preparation for Meteor Mash. Its eyes are staring at what appears to be Skarmory and are dilated into a smaller, rage-esque size. Steven is in the right corner, shouting and pointing his hand at his Skarmory.

:pbody: Hellbent Ambitions
Each of your other Metagross's attacks do 30 more damage to the Defending Pokemon. (Before applying Weakness and Resistance.) You can't use more than 1 Hellbent Ambitions Poke-Body each turn.

:metal::fighting: Earthquake 80
Does 10 damage to each of your Benched Pokemon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokemon.)

:fighting::colorless::colorless: Hammer Arm 100
Metagross can't use this attack during your next turn, and flip a cin. If tails, Metagross can't retreat until the end of your next turn.

Text: A Metagross of champion-level caliber, this engine of destruction is cruel and ruthless. It is seldom used by even Steven because of its unwieldly power.

Weakness::fire:x2
Resistance::psychic:-20
Retreat Cost::colorless::colorless::colorless:

P99- Please correct the Pok(e) parts where it doesn't have the apostrophe or whatever over it. -David

You might want to add something about the defending Pokémon to the body, otherwise, if you have one on the bench and one active, it does 110 and 40 to each of your benched Pokémon.
 
Sorry guys, but I have to go for dinner.

I MIGHT be able to post tonight, if not, ill post tomorrow sometime
 
HP: 90
Last attack:
(D)(C)(C) - Relentless Assurance -
Put 3 damage counters on the defending Pokémon for each special condition on it. If Cacturne has any (G) energy attached to it and the defending Pokémon would be knocked out by this attach, you may out any damage counters not necessary to knock out the defending Pokémon on one of your opponent's benched Pokémon instead.

I can correct the grammar later at home.
 
Electrode
Type: (L)
Stage 1 - Evolves from Voltorb
HP: 70
Weakness: (F)
Resistance:
Retreat Cost:

Poké-Power - Power-Up
Once during your turn (before you attack) you may flip a coin. If heads, you may attach a card from your hand to one of your Pokémon face down. Treat that card as a Special Energy card that provides Energy of the same type as the Pokémon it is attached to (all if there are more than 1) but only provides 1 energy at a time, it has no effects other than providing Energy.

(L)(C)(C) - Zap Cannon
You may put a number of Damage Counters on the defending Pokémon up to the number of Special Energy cards you have attached to all you Pokémon. For every 3 Damage Counters placed in this way (rounded down), put 1 Damage Counter on Electrode.

I am updating your card into my master post now. I will also reword some attacks so they make sense, and will fix a couple spelling mistakes

If Cacturne has any (G) energy attached to it and the defending Pokémon would be knocked out by this attach, you may out any damage counters not necessary to knock out the defending Pokémon on one of your opponent's benched Pokémon instead.

Ill correct any grammar issues that I can see, and will update this into my master post

Weakness: (F)
Resistance:
Retreat Cost:

Poké-Power - Power-Up
Once during your turn (before you attack) you may flip a coin. If heads, you may attach a card from your hand face down as a basic energy card of the same type of that Pokémon.

Thanks for posting this, ill update my post again in a minute
It does in gen. 4, but basics don't evolve from their baby stages.

So you are proposing that I make Roselia a basic?
Sure I will do Slaking. Looking great guys! :thumb:

Thats great!


TL:DR
Updated master post with all cards, and am fixing spelling and grammar issues.
Also need to consider whether to make Roselia a basic, or go and do Roserade
 
does anyone have any updates on their cards? I just want to know before I go and make a final read over and post the cards in a nicely formatted post
 
Here are the corrections for your post on my Metagross. Edit it like this:

Slaking 140 HP [C]
Stage 2 Pokemon
Evolves from Vigoroth

Poke - BODY Heavy Sleeper
When Slaking is asleep, flip 2 coins instead of one between turns. If either of them are tails, Slaking is still asleep.

Roll Over [C][C] 50
You cannot use this attack unless Slaking is asleep (you can use this attack even if Slaking is asleep).

Sloth Slide [C][C][C][C] 100+
This attack does 100 damage plus 30 damage for each time you have flipped 2 heads to wake Slaking up from sleep. Slaking is now asleep.

A Pokemon which does its best to avoid all forms of exercise.
