Thanks to everyone who leave me a comment letting me know that they like my cards
Sorry for the bad english too :'v

Beautiful cards, mate!

On Silvally, isn't the point of Colorless Energy that you can use any type? I like what you were going for, but I'm pretty sure you could just use Colorless Energy for the attacks and it would mean the same thing. The wording doesn't sound correct, but I don't know the newer cards very well, so I could be mistaken. I'd look at something similar to Kecleon from Plasma Freeze.

Since attacks deal damage based on the Pokémon's type (and not the attack itself), Multi Attack doesn't really need the description, since you intended for Silvally's type to change as well.

Also, be sure to always capitalize Pokémon (it's lowercase in RKS System).

One thing to keep in mind, though, is not to cover up the Illustrator credit. Seems you did so (pretty blatantly) on quite a few of them -- proper crediting is a must.

thanks! that would be nice, maybe i will try to make a text based first, because i can make a more polished work but i dont play the game that's why i dont know how to make a text based pokémon (silvally was made with bulbapedia text :'v), anyway i will try to enter :)

These are looking very pretty, Edwin! I think you've done a great job at adding the holosheets and making them look most flashy, perhaps even too flashy my taste! :p

Just so you know, when you post new cards here, it's best to post them as images directly rather than posting a link to the image. I've fixed up the links above for you already. Also, I've removed the links to your DeviantArt profile from your OP post, since if you'd like to advertise your profile, you should use your signature! ^.^
 
Just gotta say you do a really good job on these. Could we maybe see one of the Regis in the future? Also, could you link me the holosheets you used for the rainbow effect?

Nice Regigigas! A few things, though

For Regigigas, move the ability and first attack downwards to make the spacing nicer and to make Regigigas visable.

Slow Start should say, "This Pokemon gains 10 HP and its attacks do 10 more damage to your opponent's Active Pokemon for each turn this Pokemon is in play" or something like that.

Also, outline your energies

Plus you have "name of the artist" where artist should be :p

Other than that beautiful cards! What program are you using?
 
I said it over in the C-A-C thread, but these are bloody gorgeous. As someone who is looking to play around with shimmer & shine effects like you have going on here, I'd love to see a tutorial.

That Tsareena is amazing. I have been afraid to make non-FA cards because they tend to look meh but I think I'll have to try that effect.
 
Jeje, thanks man, i will try to release an tutorial o mini-guide.. and yes, im too, previously, in fact, my first RA card was horrible, but i try again with the oficial artwork and the cards looks better now!
 
Still looking pretty good, but I'd love to see more cards with attacks/artwork that aren't copy/pasted from official cards.

I think he said earlier that English isn't his first language. Edwin, would you like us to provide you with text/ideas for your cards? Also I agree with you about the artwork. I know deviantart has some good artworks if you sort by most popular all time - just make sure to give credit to the artist.
 
thank you, but i think that i will not make RA cards anymore with official art because in deviantart group they are banned, maybe i will continue to do them as commissions for people who want oricas, and want them in high definition. Thanks for your help! If anyone want to make a collab card let me know! :)
