This is not the same as the other Smash Bros set you're likely familiar of here, while that set uses the Smash Brother characters as trainers, this set (Well more like its own series based on the Pokemon TCG) uses the Smash Brother characters as the actual fighters.

I'm posting this here because the Smash Bros. Battle Cards practically uses the same mechanics as the Pokemon TCG with very tiny differences (Mostly more additions), and I'd like people's opinions on what they think of the cards and their effects. Do keep in mind that even though it uses the same mechanics as the Pokemon TCG, it's not exactly compatible with any of the Pokemon TCG sets because it uses a different combination of HP and damage formulas.

At the moment, this topic houses the Promotional cards made for Smash Cards. Below are link addresses to other topics containing cards for the other sets.

17 Mario

The Smash Symbol basically functions the exact same as Colorless. The Star symbols used for Mario's second attack is a new type I made for the series called Star. It's a mixture between light, magic and space elements, I think the word Star also fits more with the series than using the word light.

[pmg24]

Dude, that card looks awesome man. Can't wait to see how the set looks.

[Shadowmaster]

Thanks ^___^, here's another card I managed to cook up in about 15 mins.

21 Ike Ex

An example of both a Star type Smasher and an Ex Smasher, although I should really stop choosing the cards with more complicated effects...

[Arth]

Dude your cards rock, I'd like to know how to edit images so well like this

[Shadowmaster]

Cheers. Other than the tutorials which cover the basics that I can point to you, I can make a tutorial on how to replicate the cloudly background the official Pokemon cards use to some effect (You wouldn't believe how freakin long it took me to figure that one out X___x). The sparkly effect in the Star type card used for Ike is just a simple overlay with a sparkle image.

Speaking of which, for all elemental types, I'm gonna try adding a unique effect to each of their card backgrounds. Here's Wart from Super Mario Bros. 2, a water type Smasher which has a water splash/spray effect within the card background:

20 Wart

And here's a new Support (Smash name for Trainer) template I made, as well as a new sub-type called Ability. Which is very similar to TMs, but there's also another variation of TMs you'll see soon called Equipment.

15 Nova Falcon

If you're wondering why the illustration bar's a little too high up, it's cause one of my sets has a very annoying high set logo.

[Arth]

I've watched this Falcon Punch on youtube, it's pwnage, btw you could create abilities according to the characters Final Smashes

[Shadowmaster]

Funny conincidence, I once made Final Smash cards that function like Lv.X cards. I can't show you any of them at the moment sadly, I've yet to create the FS tab for the new card templates and that will be one of my later jobs.

Oh well, here's a Fighting type card, as well as an Evolution Smasher card.

1 Lethe
2 Lethe Beast Form

[Zathaz]

your cards are soo cool, keep up the good work :)

[Shadowmaster]

Thanks. Here's the dark type template.

22 Black Knight Ex

I tried giving the background a moon like texture, but that kind of failed since the card is too dark. But at least it looks space like, and space is dark. XD

[Shadowmaster]

I can't find the rules about double posting anywhere so apologies in advance. Here is not only the card template for metal types, but this card is also a dual Metal/Psychic type.

19 Armored Mewtwo

[Shadowmaster]

I'm gonna be using this topic to house the Promotional cards now, as well as any general news about the card series. Here's two new cards.

7 Cheep-Cheep
8 Cheep-Chomp

[Shadowmaster]

Here's half of the remaining Promo cards.

3 Dark Marth
4 Sothe
5 Soren
6 Rundas
9 Mysterious Black Dude Ex
10 Ghadius

Can't believe I just quad-posted, but sadly I'm not getting much feedback :\. You don't have to give your opinion on any of the cards:

• Is there anything particular you want to see from the card series?
• Is there any particular Nintendo character you would like to see as a Promo card?
• Are you just waiting on for the Melee set? XD

I may start accepting Promo cards requests again.

[MrSmileyPants]

If only Armored Mewtwo could evolve from Mewtwo in the Pokemon TCG...

[MattPL]

Hmm, I don't play much Fire Emblem, but I'm guessing that's where a lot of these cards are from. I also want to say that Rundas is from metroid prime hunters, but I'm only guessing

Where does Ghadius come from though?

Also, Nova Falcon seems over powered. The coin flip doesn't exactly balance it out very much either. Just a suggestion, maybe you should lessen it's power somehow?

Also, suggestion some other promos, why not make some third party characters as promo cards? Megaman comes to mind, as does Final Fantasy, but don't go jumping the bandwagon on Final Fantasy :P

As for nintendo characters, I'd highly suggest Animal Crossing cards, or even better, Paper Mario and Super Mario RPG cards.

Rundas comes from Metroid Prime 3, Ghadius comes from Klonoa (I wanted to hold off from doing third party Promo cards until I released the Third World series, any that have been currently were done as requests or I made them as a present). Since there are no current plans for any future Promo cards, feel free to make some requests. What Animal Crossing, Paper Mario and Super Mario RPG cards would you like to see (As well as characters from any other series)?

About Nova Falcon, yeah it may seem overpowered, but what about if I told you the coin flip damage equivalent for that amount of Energy and being a Support card attack would be 140? That's enough to kill nearly all Smashers in one hit. Generally coin flip attacks are more powerful in the Smash Card series than they are in the Pokemon TCG (Well at least compared to Base set).

If you think that's still overpowered, I can always up the attack cost by [C].

Anyways here are the remaining Promo cards.

11 Mewtwo Ex
12 Rosalina Ex
13 Space Pirate
14 Kain Ex
16 Thardus
18 Ganondorf Ex

[MattPL]

Well I was thinking, and I thought of a good series for Promo Cards, and that would be Golden Sun.

For Paper Mario, these are some possible cards:
-Paper Mario (Character)
-Star Rod (Item)
-Pit of 100 Trials (Stage)
-Thousand Year Door (Stage)
-Flip Dimension (Stage)

Super Mario RPG:
-Geno (Character)
-Mallow (Character)
-Smithy (Character)
-Axem Rangers (Character)
-Culex (Character)

Animal Crossing is hard because the characters are rather peaceful, but I'll try:
-Tom Nook's Lottery (Setting)
-Resetti Surveillance Center (Stage)
-K.K. Slider's Concert (Setting, Possibly Stage)
-Crazy Redd's Tent (Stage)
-Gyroid (Item)

Golden Sun:
-Issac (Character)
-Felix (Character)
-The Fusion Dragon (Character)
-Deadbeard (Character)
-Iris (Item)

Of course, I'm not requesting all of these, but I thought I would leave a lot of suggestions so that you may decide which ones are the best make.

Hope these give you some nice ideas.

[Shadowmaster]

That is great thanks. Here's the first new card I've made since using the new designs (The rest were updates to old cards I made before).

23 Paper Mario

Haha, Powerbounce and Quake Hammer, nice moves. Makes me want to play The Thousand Year Door all over again.

Great job.

Also, I just saw the Wario Card on your deviant. It looks pretty cool. Can't wait for the Brawl Expansion.

[Shadowmaster]

Apologies if it's been a while since my last card, I wanted to focus more on my Melee set, and wanted to get a group of Promos finished to post them all at once rather than posting them one at a time. But as it's been a while, Im gonna post this one right now. XD


24 Tom Nook's Lottery

[Shadowmaster]

EDIT: This post used to contain 2 cards from an SP Set I planned on making, but I've removed them. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Shadowmaster]

Here's what I've been working on for the past 2-3 days.

25 Lethe Beast Form FS

[Shadowmaster]

BOOYA!!! New Promo card! (In over a month... >___>)

26 Piks

[Pyro Entite]

I like that card but I think you should have named it 8bit Mario because then you could have made a Mario for each nintendo system that came out and it would have been cool. I could see that really being a set of cards.

[Pyro Entite]

Here I made some Mario cards just for fun.

True, but I had planned on making multiple Mario cards, and most of them would of shared the same name so they would come under the 4 per Pokemon/Smasher rule anyways.

Cheers for the Mario cards, they've helped given me a few ideas. But I see you was unaware that I already made a Fire Flower card.
