    This was my first time working with "oils" and my first time doing a difficult Pokémon like Necrozma but here it is. Not very happy with the end result but it could have been a lot worse either.

    Not shown was the recommended generator not liking the aspect ratio I was using :x
     
    Well, here's my entry. I haven't been involved with the TCG scene in a long time so I hope it's not too out there/the wording isn't too terrible lmao

    Spoiler:
     
    I'm not sure I've ever actually played the TCG, though I do have a collection of it =3

    I made one with the Sun/Moon template, drew the images for Grumpig and the prevo Spoink myself =D
    The Set image is the silhouette of a Glaceon head.
    Spoiler:


    Been wanting to draw Grumpig and Spoink for a while now and this was the perfect excuse =3

    Ah darn, I got beaten to the punch for Tag Team. Anyway, here's what I made. No clue how to do large scale art though. I guess it would be one of those goofy styles of cards, but is a bit unfitting for a Tag Team GX.

    Don't really play TCG, but what I was going for with this one was supposed to be a kind of supporting card that can still come in for a very strong GX move that benefits your team in the long run.

    Also I made it 2/239 for Unified Minds since they're both unified in the mind of dancing?!? Increased expansion card count from 236 to 239 so account for the fact that if this card existed, it'd have a full art and rainbow version.

    1 entry coming up!

    So I decided to actually showcase a TCG based around a Fakemon... that Fakemon being mine and Chura's Spiroak we've entered into the Fakemon competition actually!

    So for a little background on Spiroak: this is an evolution of Trevenant based around the idea of sacred trees (Yggdrasill, Oaks in Celtic Folklore) whilst still tying into the ideas of possession and spirits. The result is a tree Pokémon which, like Yggdrasill, has dragons attacking it (think Nidhogg) and essentially becomes exorcised, having the evil spirit in it disappear and replaced with a sacred protector per se, hence the tie-ins to resurrection, life and holiness.

    For the card, I've tried to capture this by building a GX card based around the idea of moving 'Life' around, bouncing damage counters around your team to keep vital cards healthy before then nuking something with all the damage counters you've been accumulating. I've also added in an attack that specifically does better against Dragons to once again hone in on that Nidhogg i.e. mythological reference. Had to include it in the Dragon Majesty set as a sort of counterbalance to all the Dragon stuff in it, as I know TCG sets tend to try and include 'counters' to their general theme as it were.

    And here's the end result!
