TCG Fakes TFP's Text-Based Fakes!

Attention! My next/current set is in a new thread. So be sure to check my new thread out! -> quick link
But that doesn't mean that this thread will be abandoned! I am still going to post my ideas here.

Plasma Dragon said:
I like it!!! When I created the attack names I was thinking that you would use Double Dipping as the ability and Aura Abduction as the attack :p I think it turned out great though :D
Click to expand...
I am glad to hear that! :p
 
Like it!

One or two little things I would change. Golducks ability currently states: As long as this Pokémon is in play, each player can't play any Stadium cards from his or her. Maybe add at the word hand to the end of it? (text should be: each player can't play any Stadium cards from his or her hand.)
Also Whirlipede's Rapid Spin attack, might want to change the word "the" to "any" like when a Pokemon discards a Stadium card (Avalugg Flashfire has this attack, so the text should be: Discard any Hazard card in play.)

Other than those things I don't see anything else. Good job!

[BREAK Evolution] Rampardos BREAK / HP: 170 / Fighting

rampardos.gif


[F] Head Smash 110
If the Defending Pokémon would be Knocked Out by this attack, this Pokémon does 80 damage to itself.

It shiny looks amazing! :p
 
Last edited:
That Rampardos BREAK looks really interesting! I initially though it would be a bit overpowered, since Head Smash 1-hit KOs with just a few buffs, but considering that it evolves from a Restored Pokemon, I think it can afford a power increase. I would recommend dropping Head Smash to 110 damage and increase the recoil to 90, as Protection Cube can still nullify the recoil (which makes it fairly OP).
 
You've got some really neat ideas here, TFP! There is two changes I would recommend though:

For Return Sting, the wording could probably be changed to be a bit more specific:
"If you flip 4 or more heads in this way, you may leave your opponent's Active Pokémon Paralyzed."

The Shaymin is broken, especially considering Shaymin-EX and Unown. Any form of Ability draw requires careful consideration due to how much impact they can have on the game. Drawing two cards in rapid succession is particularly powerful, as you can net yourself an extra six+ cards with ease, considering Trainers that are available in this format. The fact that it can be reused by Super Scoop Up (unlike Unown) is particularly notable. It also only gives up a single prize, and considering it has really powerful attacks, this Shaymin and Virizion-EX/Sceptile/Max Elixer would very likely become more powerful than Night March if it was to exist. :p

I'm loving the Venipede line in your set. The Ghost types are good, but could do with the resistance being Fighting rather than Colorless.
 
That is a really neat Chatot! It's extremely powerful due to its diversity, but it is also very interesting manipulation of a common form of energy acceleration.

Thanks! I get what you mean with the Fighting Resistance, but I am keeping the Colorless Resistance. I used Colorless as Resistance, because Ghost types in Diamond and Pearl had the Colorless Resistance too.

Assuming you are referring to the Toxic Orb, the first clause can be rewritten:

"Attach a Pokémon Tool to 1 of your Pokémon that doesn't already have a Pokémon Tool attached to it. As long as this card is attached to your Active Pokémon, it is also attached to your opponent's Active Pokémon."

or you can remove that clause entirely and write:

"At the beginning of each player's turn, flip a coin. If heads, that player's Active Pokémon is now Poisoned. (If that Pokémon is already is affected by Special Condition, replace that Special Condition.)"
 
I really like that Poison Heal ability on Gliscor. Stealth Rock is so much like the one from the VG. And Chatot, that's a really cool ability! You are really getting the hang of this, keep up the good work!

(If only they would bring back the CaC competitions *sigh*)

Proper wording for "Box of Objects" (Aegislash XY as reference):
Switch any 2 of your Rotom you have in play with 2 Rotom in your hand. (Any cards attached to this Pokémon, damage counters, Special Conditions, turns in play, and any other effects remain on the new Pokémon.)
 
I think this sounds better (might not be perfect.) But your way was kinda funny :p

When this Pokémon is goes to your Bench, you may heal 40 damage and remove any Special Condition affecting this Pokémon.

In your wording, Plasma Dragon, moved should be "goes" and bench should be capitalised. I think the use of wording (yours or TFP's) depends on whether TFP wants Regenerator to activate only at the cost of Retreating, or not.

Then why did she add the "for whatever reason"? I personally thought that she was trying to make it so when gets moved to the bench its effect activates.
