    Yes, i'm making a 10 card Promo set in preperation for EX: Fury.

    1/10 Ralts
    2/10 Kirlia
    3/10 *image removed*
    4/10 *image removed*
    5/10 *image removed*
    6/10 *image removed*
    7/10 Machop
    8/10 Machoke
    9/10 Machamp
    10/10 Shining Tropius

    Here's my view on naming. I think that an adjective describing a Pokemon should be the same size as the Pokemon (except Shining and Shadow) name since "Dark" and "Light" are. However, if a Pokemon belongs to a trainer, it should be smaller than the Pokemon name, but in all caps. It's just the way I do it, I don't want to sound like MoCE, but you know what I mean...you can do it however you want.

    Whoo! Excellent job, King Shuckle. I'm glad someone is using - and enjoying - my blanks. Thanks!

    As I told you on AIM, I love it. The picture fits so well with the card, and Ritual Dance is a great attack. There's nothing to not love about the card. I can't wait to check out the rest of the cards (and EX: Fury, as well)!

    It's what Contest Pok?mon have instead of HP. For future reference, here's Kat's rules (he came up with the idea, I made the blanks):

    Katsuya @ Serebii said:
    First of all, you can customise these anyway you like. I'm just posting this because I kinda came up with the idea.

    Now, all placements and sizes are exactly the same with normal HL cards. So, what's different you ask.

    1 - Instead of having a normal HP, pokemon now have "ER" or "Energy Rating". Basically, instead of having 50 HP, you'd have 50 ER. Pretty simple.

    2 - Attacks are mostly the same, with only a few changes. Gone are the ideas of Paralysis, Confused etc. Now there are only 3.

    Judges' Attention: On your next turn, flip a coin. If heads, your attack is doubled. If tails, nothing happens. (Would be put in an attack as "Your Pokemon has the Judges' Attention")

    Boring Judges: The next time you are attacked, flip a coin. If heads, nothing happens. If tails, you receive +20 D from the next attack. (Would be put as "The defending pokemon is boring the judges")

    Scared: Your next attack's damage is reduced by 20 D. (Would be put as "The defending pokemon is scared")

    3 - Pokemon can also have a Combo Attack. These attacks are triggered by either: Having a certain pokemon on your contest team / Using a certain Trainer card / Using a certain attack a number of times, or the order of your attacks. Combo Attacks normally do alot of damage, but may differ depending on the pokemon in question (you choose really).

    4 - Your bench is now called your "Contest Team". Just for attack effects really.

    5 - You don't need to put "Tough" or "Smart" etc. in the name, since we have the blanks and symbols.

    EDIT: 6 - I forgot to mention Weakness and Resistance. Normally, it'd be

    Tough - Weak against Cute, Resistant against Smart
    Smart - Weak against Tough, Reistant against Cool
    Cool - Weak against Smart, Resistant against Beauty
    Beauty - Weak against Cool, Resistant against Cute
    Cute - Weak against Beauty, Resistant against Tough.

    Hope this explains things.
     
    WEll we really dont need them weakness/resistance stuff...
    But anyways, good job.
    I'd like to see more from you and CMP's blanks. Oh and cool blanks too.^^
     
    Ah, I didn't make the rules, although I believe the Weakness/Resistance is needed, only because the Pok?mon aren't represented by their true types (in which case a Psychic Weakness on Beauty Jynx would not make sense). And thanks for your compliments about the blanks! You can find a link to them all (and more) in my sig.

    KS - I'm quite looking forward to Smart Chansey. Can't wait to see it.
     
    Heh, Smart Chansey hasn't been started yet, but I have managed to finish Gardevoir. Check it out! I'm not going to represent all Contest types right now, but the next mini-promo set, which will be after EX: Fury, I plan to make will have all 5. EX: Fury is basically a Light/Dark set with a few top secret cards...but I'll get more into it when I make an official thread for it.

    EDIT: Smart Chansey is up!

    Whoo! Smart Chansey.

    Looks awesome, KS. As I told you on AIM, I like your art - it adds a different feel to the card. Attacks are great as well.

    Nice work!
     
    err... isn't Smart Chansey a bit broken? O.o; draw cards and damage, along with the possibility of nervous if the trainer card is in play, for 1 energy? O.o;;; 110 hp is killer as well...

    and what's the glasses in the chansey picture doing? =D;;

    I LOVE gardevoir's picture ;_; Gardevoir looks even more elegant in that picture...
     
    Nicely done cards, KingShuckle! :P

    The Jynx is very pretty. I don't know what Chansey doing either...and the Garde is extremely elegant. (PM original pic, pls) *cough* <_< >_> What? :nervous:
     
    I'm glad you like my work. Tough Sudowoodo is finsihed!
