My entry:
I created a new mechanic, Imaginary Pokemon, that are a play on Prism Stars crossed with GX Pokemon. Essentially a GX that gets placed in the lost zone if knocked out. Also, they have weird energy requirements, weakness/resistance, and moves/abilities.

Dragon Type
Basic

[ABILITY] Radioactive
Once during your turn, if this Pokemon is on your bench, you may place two damage counters on both active Pokemon.

(F)(C) Ready Aim Fire
During your next turn, this Pokemon's attacks do 70 more damage.

(L)(L)(C) Thunder 70

IMAGINARY Rule
If this Pokemon is knocked out, your opponent draws two prize cards. If this Pokemon is knocked out by damage from an attack, place it into the lost zone.
Weakness - (P) x2
Resistance - (N) - 20

EDIT: Agghh forgot HP. I'll take the point penalty.

Hi! I fixed my Photoshop, so consider this sign-up and entry all in one.

Nothing super impressive, I was mostly testing to see if I could find my way around the updated program. But here's a little babby

oT1WSLt.png

So mostly I made this for the second attack. Obviously the whole point here is that deliciously dark lore that is associated with Cubone, and the dead mothers being the discard/grave. Cubone also has an interesting branch evolution of sorts now, with no Alolan Cubone but an alt version of the evo.

The first attack is a nod to the Alolan trend for him now, of energy acceleration. Mostly I just thought of the name and couldn't resist.

In comparison with say, Night March, it is not too over-powered I hope. Of course in Expanded it could be very powerful with all the [F] support and items like battle compressor. But then you only have four attackers (more if you start considering Marshadow GX and the likes), and you cap out at 90 with all Marowaks discarded before adding modifiers.

50hp is a little low but it is a bit too good a card already so some limitations were required. For the same reason you accelerate basic energies which will screw with attempts to build this deck with DCE or Strong energy. This needs to come from the discard, which is where you are also trying to dump many Marowaks so that can help and hinder your build. I did leave it all colourless so the attempt could be made to use a special energy mix, and also so it can be part of an [F], [R] or even future [P] build where this is just one part of a bigger strategy.

My own template, but icons and font guide from the ever-present @aschefield101

The image actually is a 3D print by Nick Schwerin. I love how tactile it is. You can find him here and even print off your own if you have the faculties.

My card upload cont.

I was joking with my brother about how broken Pikachu was and how it beat arceus but it lost to a level 4 snivy

and I also think that buzzwole, shrine, and zoroark break the meta,

so I combined it all into one meta-destroying card

Actually I want to change from text to image, if thats okay.
That's fine, but given that you've already submitted one entry, it'll be treated as though you've edited your submission and you'll correspondingly lose two points. You good with that? ^.^
