Holiday Fakemon Design Contest

Welcome one and all to the 2015 Holiday Get-Together Fakemon Design Contest!

The purpose of this contest is for participants to design an original Pokémon based around the given theme. At the end of the contest, the top three designs will be chosen and announced, and these designs will be added to The Pokédex of PokéCommunity. Of course, if you don't want your design to be added there, just say so. It won't affect how your design is judged, so don't worry about it! All entries will be judged by myself, and judging shall be done anonymously. If you want individual feedback on your designs, feel free to message me about it after the event!

Designs will be judged based on their adherence to the theme and overall quality, so don't worry about all the little details that can sometimes accompany a fakemon design, but feel free to add them if you so wish!

Theme

The theme for this contest is "Winter Snow." How you choose to interpret that is entirely up to you! Designs may vary from something as obviously wintry as Cryogonal or Beartic to something that perhaps just occasionally dwells in a snowy environment, like Teddiursa.

Rules

• As always, all general PC rules apply.
• Be sure that your entry matches the theme!
• All designs must be fresh! Meaning anything that was created before the start of the Get-Together may not be entered.
• All designs must be original! Plagiarism is absolutely forbidden. Do not use a design that you did not create yourself, even if you somehow got permission to use it.
• To enter, simply post your design here. If you'd rather it be judged/displayed anonymously, you may send it to me in a Private Message instead.
• Likewise, if you'd prefer that your entry not be used in the The Pokédex of PokéCommunity, please state so in your entry post/PM.
• Please submit your design during the Submission Period. Any designs posted afterward will not be judged.
• Above all else, have fun! That's what the Get-Together is all about, after all. Do your best, and don't worry about the rest!

Submission Form

• [Design]
  
  You can either post the image here (preferably in a spoiler), or you may link to it. If your fakemon is part of an evolutionary family, existing or otherwise, you may link to the other designs here as well, but please make clear which is the design that you would like to be judged.​
• [b]Name:[/b]
  
  The name is a large part of the design, after all! You can also state what the inspiration for the name is here, if you so desire.​
• [b]Type:[/b]
  
  The theme may be Winter Snow, but that doesn't mean the Pokémon needs to be an Ice-type! Even if it is, it may have a secondary typing as well.​
• [b]Species:[/b]
  
  For example, Bergmite is the Ice Chunk Pokémon.​
• [b]Other Details:[/b]
  
  You can get as detailed as you want with the design. These "other details" may include anything from abilities, gender ratio, base stats, flavor text/Pokédex entries and beyond. Details in this section are just for fun and the sake of the design, and will not add to or detract from how your design is judged.​
