Let me know what you think!

Thanks!​

EDIT!
This is the updated one with new attack font, any better?

The fonts in the attacks need work, but the art is done well, the wording is pretty spot-on, and the ideas are clever. Pretty good for your first card!
 
Thanks :D

Which font is best for the attacks?

EDIT:
@klepman: Wow, thanks. Will do some more soon!
 
Did you go to the "Fake Card Resources?" It's Stickied in Fake Creations. They have the Frutiger fonts for Download, and you can ask around there if you have any questions.
 
Have updated the first post with a new version with new font.

I think it looks much better, thanks.
 
Great job on your first fake card. The updated font looks much better than the previous ones and the background of the artwork looks really nice. Keep it up.

I'll be the judge of that :p

"Once during your turn, when you play Combee LV.X from your hand onto your Active Combee, you may look at the top 10 cards of your deck, choose all Combee you find there, and put them onto your Bench. If you do, choose as many Energy cards you find there and attach them to your Pokemon in any way you like. Shuffle your deck afterward."

"This attack does 40 damage times the number of Combee on your Bench that has any Energy attached to it."

And on the LV.X text, you put 'it's previous level'. It can use any attack from it is previous level? The word to use in this case is 'its'.
 
Wow, for a first card, I'm impressed!

Besides what was mentioned, you might want to get a new symbolsheet -- with the blanks you use (edited from a scan?), the symbols should be bigger. Also try playing around with percent width -- the attack/power name looks a little too wide. The Illus. still says Ryo Ueda. Other than those small things, fantastic!
 
Thanks for the feedback.
Don't know why I put an apostrophe in 'its' and those re-wordings sound much better :)
And yeah, I did notice the energy symbols were too small, i'll have to find some better ones.

Thanks again.
