Why don't you just make the deadline sooner, and make us wait for the results. That ay inactive people get removed, and people who still care can just wait a little longer for the results.

Anyways, I will be away Monday to Friday next week and will not have Internet or cell connection. Sorry if this will cause any problems.
 
What part of "I'm postponing it due to irl issues" don't you guys understand?
 
I'm aware of that, but you could just keep the deadline and make us wait for the results. All I was saying
 
Here is the current player list.

Afro-G
Eevee
~Glaceon
HypnoticLuxray
~Matryoshka
~Nengeni
~oyeah1988
PMJ
~Reshiwott
TDL
~The Yoshi
Zorua

As you will notice, about half the names have strikethroughs in them. Those are people I didn't receive a submission from this round. Thus, in the interest of speeding the game up (or rather what's left of it, accursed Werewolf drawing all the attention + me not being around enough), they're automatically eliminated.
This means there are now 6 of you left. The top 3 will get immunities, leaving the other 3 free to be voted off. After this round...I'm pretty sure I'm going to have the immunities narrowed to just 1 person.

I'm going to be grading on Creativity, Wording, and Believability (10 points each possible, for a total of 30). It's the same rubric that CMP uses in his Create A Card contests, just with different point values.

Ready?

Glaceon:

Supporter Trainer:

Shuffle your hand into your deck. Draw 2 cards for every Stage 2 Pokémon on your bench.

You may only play 1 Supporter card during your turn (before you attack).

Creativity: 8/10 - Kinda reminiscent of PONT, but also hearkens back to the era of Stage 2s. However...there's no name on the card.
Wording: 10/10 - Flawless.
Believability: 9/10 - The problem would be setting up all of those Stage 2s, but other than that I see no issues here.
Total: 27/30

Matryoshka:

Trainer-Supporter

DNA's Sexy Seduction

Flip a coin. If heads, look at your opponent's hand. Choose a Supporter you find there and discard it from his or her hand, and use the effect of that card. If tails, your opponent discards a card from their hand, and you may draw up to one card.

Creativity: 7/10 - I'm...pretty sure the entire purpose of this card was flattery. It only KINDA worked.
Wording: 8/10 - "Choose a Supporter card you find there" - "and use the effect of that card as the effect of this card" - "and you may draw 1 card" (because 'up to' is going to be 0 or 1).
Believability: 8/10 - I uhhhhhhhhhhhh...I guess this could work. It's like a lulzy version of Raticate in Supporter form.
Total: 23/30

Nengeni:

Darkrai LV.46 : 90 HP
{D} Basic

Poké Body - Nightmare
As long as darkrai is your active pokémon, place 2 damage counter on any pokémon that remains Asleep between turns.

{D}{D} Dark Void 50

The Defending Pokémon is now Asleep.

Weakness: {F}+20
Resistance: {P} - 20
Retreat Cost: {C}

"Folklore has it that on moonless nights, this Pokémon will make people see horrific nightmares."

Creativity: 8/10 - Basic Darkrai, nothing special here. However, bonus points for including a Pokedex entry.
Wording: 8/10 - "Darkrai", "Active", and "Pokemon" aren't capitalized in the power, and it's "put 2 damage counters".
Believability: 10/10 - Looks good to go.
Total: 26/30

oyeah1988:

Sparkle Dimension
Trainer - Stadium

Each Pokémon can use the following attack (instead of its own):

{C}{C} Rare Twilight- 30: Flip two coins. If both are heads, your opponent shuffles his or her hand into their deck and draws three cards. If both are tails, shuffle your hand into your deck and draw three cards.

This card stays in play when you play it. Discard this card if another Stadium card comes into play. If another card with the same name is in play, you can’t play this card.

Creativity: 9/10 - Although I am loath to say this, this is actually quite innovative.
Wording: 9/10 - Any number should be written as a number (3) and not a word (three), and it's "his or her deck", not "their deck".
Believability: 10/10 - Yup.
Total: 28/30

Reshiwott:

Heatran-EX - Fire - HP170
Basic Pokemon

Ability: Burning Desire

Once During your turn, Before you attack, You may draw a card for each of your evolved {R} Pokemon in play. You can't use more than one Burning Desire each turn.

{R}{R} Magma Storm: 70 damage. Discard all energy attached to this Pokemon. Flip a coin. If heads, The Defending Pokemon can't retreat during your opponent's next turn.

Weakness: Fighting (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 3

Creativity: 10/10 - Evolved Pokemon draw power and a reasonable attack. I like it, I like it.
Wording: 6/10 - A lot of missed capitalization. There are words that are capitalized but shouldn't be, and there are words that aren't that should be.
Believability: 9/10 - Evolved {R} Pokemon are few and far between, but that might be the whole point behind this behemoth. Reminds me of Charizard (Arceus) deck.
Total: 25/30

The Yoshi:

Format for this card is BW.

Shedinja - 10 HP - Stage 1 - Evolves from Nincada

Ability: Wonder Guard

Prevent all effects of attacks, including damage, done to Shedinja by your opponent's Pokemon that do not hit Shedinja for Weakness.

(No Energy) Grudge: Discard Shedinja and all cards attached to it. Then, discard the Defending Pokemon and all cards attached to it.

Weakness - Dark x2 | Resistance- None | Retreat Cost: 0

Creativity: 10/10 - As always, Shedinja needs to have some weird gimmick. And...this is a very interesting gimmick. Very difficult to get out, to hit, and to stop.
Wording: 10/10 - I'm not sure if the "that do not hit Shedinja for Weakness" is the best wording, but it definitely seems fine to me.
Believability: 9/10 - For something with an attack as good as Grudge, there needs to be a trade-off - and so there is; Nincada has to survive without a single damage counter placed upon it. This is the kind of card I love to see!
Total: 29/30


Cobalt, Glace, and the Yoshi are this round's winners, and cannot be voted off this round. Send your votes in to TheGuy; I believe he has something in store for the next round.
 
I forgot the name? :/

The only reason I know the wording is because Gliscor's a spaz about correct wordings on his fakes.
 
The Fabulous Five does not include Reshiwott, I'll have something up by Sunday night at the latest, probably earlier.
 
1) No, I won't be. This game is taking forever.

2) It doesn't say Sunday night anywhere?

Yes it does.

And deal with it, if you don't want to wait, you're more than able to drop out.
 
Who's that Pokemon?​

For this one, your Pokemon Trivia Skills will be tested, each day an open ended question about Pokemon will be posted, at a random time no doubt. The questions may have more than one correct answer. You will have approximately 24 hours to post an answer in the thread. The first person to get three correct wins immunity. Simple Enough?

Question One: Who's that Pokemon? It's national dex number is the same as its weight.
 
Are we allowed to look it up?

Scyther if we are.

Or we could just speed it up. Thank you TheGuy.
 
I'm going to give points to both of you this round, for all rounds following, only one answer will be sufficient.

Scores:
1 Nengeni & Glace
0 Everyone else
 
I thought everyone had 24 hours to correctly post an answer?

Or will it be first come - first served until all the correct answers have been used?
