Permission to post by Cherrim and the rest of the mod team! Thank you!
Showdown Coding, my Pokemon Showdown Coding server with over 700 members, is hosting a Halloween-themed Showdown mod competition from today until 10/28 at 11:59 PM GMT-4! Rules:
1. The theme must be spooky/scary. Whether all the Pokemon are Ghost/Dark/Psychic type, or they're Fakemon based around typical Halloween tropes (or Lovecraftian nightmares, etc.), take your pick.
2. You must have at least 25 significantly edited Pokemon in the mod's format, and you cannot include non-significantly edited Pokemon in that format, as well. By significantly edited, I mean at least 2 somewhat notable changes to vanilla Pokemon (for example, one changed/added Ability to a Pokemon, and at least 3 movepool changes/pickups). For Abilities, one change/addition counts as a significant edit. For moves, at least 3 movepool changes/additions counts as one significant edit. For stats, at least 2 stats being changed counts as a significant edit. NOTE: If you are using Fakemon, each Fakemon is significant enough in its own right to be counted.
3. You may work in teams. If you work in a team, you have to have one person that gets the entire prize.
4. You may commission.
After the submission period ends, all the mods will be hosted on a public server/client by 10/30 at 11:59 PM GMT-4. The winner receives a $25 Amazon gift card via email!
Judging criteria (out of 100):
