Well, with Bronzong, anything Metal with a high damage output becomes pretty good. But if this is its own format, I don't think it's too OP at all.

Wording could be improved, though. I think this would be more accurate:

[M][M][M][M][M] Crater Maker 180 damage.
Discard 2 Energy attached to this Pokémon. Discard any Stadium card in play.
 
Yeah that sounds much better thanks! Also do you think every Pokemon in this set should have a hidden power or just some of them?

I really like this idea. I think the hidden powers should be for all non-evolving basic Pokemon (ex. Audino) and all final evolutions (ex. Garchomp).

Only once in my memory has a mechanic ever been applied to every card in a set, and that was Magma's/Aqua's Pokémon in Double Crisis. And that wasn't the same sort of mechanic, anyway, so I think it would be best to limit hidden powers to a few Pokémon. :)

Essentially a repeat of Plasma, then? In that arc of sets, only Pokémon that would not evolve could be Team Plasma Pokémon.

Yeah, pretty much. I feel like the novelty of the Hidden Powers would get old if you could plop down any old Pokemon and it would have a Hidden Power. With only non-evolving Pokemon having the ability to have them, it becomes a much more fun concept, IMHO.

Personally I'd say that HPs really should be reserved for the main stars of the set, or just some cool Pokemon, a bit like how ATs are used.

With the Steelix, I'd even be weird and go as far as saying 170 damage tops for Steelix's Hidden Power attack, but it's probably not too important :p
 
Well I was thinking that it could do 180 because you can't attach a muscle band... (unless you used this set as a stand alone). And yeah what I originally did was just put Hidden Powers on cool Pokemon.
 
Here is some more stuff!

Energy Accelerator

Attach a Energy card from your discard pile to 1 of your Pokémon. And If you did, your turn ends.

You may play as many Item cards as you like during your turn(before you attack).

Read Tropical Beach for the first item. Pathfinder needs a captilised draw.

"(before your attack)" should be italicised. Also, instead of "is now Confused. And the Defending Pokemon can't" you can just write "is now Confused and can't*.
 
Fixed... will I ever get this stuff right? :(

You're doing fine - you can't get better without the practice and help! :) Besides, you're attempting more difficult wordings (which is awesome to see) that are hard to get right on the first time, so I think you're doing really well!

See the AOR Volcarona for Carbink wording. I just took the picture off ebay if you're interested :p
 
Thanks @bbninjas I have been trying to make my cards as interesting as possible and I could not have made these cards grammatically correct without you and @Jabberwock so thanks to both of you. (and anyone else I missed that helped me)

Lowercase "this" and probably put in "...opponent's Benched Pokémon." If you intended the extra damage to go to the Active as well, it'd be:

[D][D][D][D][D] Dark Dragon Tail 100+ damage.
Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 50 more damage and 50 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon.

As far as I know, that's never been done before, so I'm not sure about perfect wording.

Power levels I don't feel very savvy to atm, so I'll not rate those for now.
