Common Wording Errors Compilation
Designing your card spoiler can be one of the toughest tasks in creating your TCG fake. Not only should the mechanics and content be considered, but also the wording. Wording is among the most important - and most daunting - aspects of faking, important in establishing professionalism and consistency across your works. It certainly doesn’t help that the card game has a binderload of unspoken rules for wording. Below you can find a compilation of the more common wording errors to cut your workload in cross referencing your spoilers.

This compilation is written for the XY era, however is in most cases suitable for older eras. This compilation is also not all-inclusive, so if you known an error you think should be added, post it in this thread.

Terminology Errors:
Damage is done, damage counters are put. [References: Gengar BRK, Golbat PHF -Blui]

Types are always written in Energy format; i.e. [P] type. [References: Dimension Valley, Hariyama FFI]

Energy is Energy when attached, it’s an Energy card when not. This means you can’t search your deck for Energy. [Reference: Palkia-EX, Lugia-EX, Fisherman, Aromatisse XY, Shuppet ROS]

Only damage counters may be moved from one Pokémon to another, not damage. [References: Dusknoir FLF, Meowstic FLF]

When an attack or ability references the Pokemon using it, it is always referred to as ‘this Pokémon’. [Reference: Hawlucha FFI, Raichu XY]

“While” is used for an effect that is active for extended time periods for as long as something is true and is used in present tense. [References: Pangaro XY Promo, Dangerous Energy]

“If” is used when an effect is triggered by an action performed in the past or by an action that is present at a single point in time (i.e. is not constant). [References: Sceptile-EX, Malamar XY Promo, Ace Trainer].

“Whenever” is similar to “when” as it is used when an effect is to be triggered by an action in the future. However, “whenever” is used when the action and effect can happen on multiple occasions rather than just one. [References: Regirock XY Promo, Goomy AOR]

“When” is similar to “whenever” as it is also used when an effect is to be triggered by an action in the future. However, “when” is used when the action and effects can only occur once without outside interaction such as by trainers. [References: Shaymin-EX ROS, Skyfield, Healing Scarf]

Structural Errors
When referring to multiples types of Energy, the word “Energy” is mentioned after all the Energy types are listed. [Reference: Scorched Earth]. However, with Pokémon, “Pokémon” is mentioned after each listed type. [Reference: Rough Seas].

When listing Energy types in an order, the order is always this: [G], [R], [W], [L], [P], [F], [D], [M], [Y], [N] and [C]. [References: Kecleon RR, M-Rayquaza [N], ROS Lucario PLS]

Whenever applying a Special Condition, the structure used should be “XXX is now [conditioned]”. If applying a Special Condition is optional, use the structure “You may leave XXX [conditioned]”. [References: Pumpkaboo XY, M Ampharos-EX]

If you wish for one effect to only apply if a condition is met, then the structure used should be “Do [X]. Then, do [Y]”. [References: Archie’s Ace in the Hole, Maxie’s Hidden Ball Trick]

Starting from the XY era, "This attack" is always put in front of "does", notably when "does" would otherwise begin the sentence. [References: Compare Meloetta-EX to Joltik PHF]

Parentheses Errors:
As separate sentences:
- (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
- (This counts as evolving that Pokémon.)

In the same sentence:
- (before your attack)
- (before/after applying Weakness or Resistance)
- (even if this Pokémon is Knocked Out)

- (excluding XXX Pokémon)
- (except for XXX)

NOTE: Note the italics of each clause. Formatting is important in wording.

Miscellaneous Grammatical or Formatting Errors
EX” is italicised. i.e. Pokémon-EX [References: Suicune PLB, Milotic FLF]

Numbers are always written as digits, i.e. Flip 2 coins. [References: Beedrill PRC, Meowstic BKP, Palkia-EX]

Contractions are always used when available. i.e. “can’t”, not “cannot”. [References: Raticate BKP, Evosoda]

Other Errors
If you are searching your deck for a specific type of card, it must be revealed; i.e. “reveal it”. If the card you retrieve can be any card, then it is not revealed. [References: Ultra Ball, Teammates]

If a damage modifier is applied to the Attacking Pokémon, it is always applied “(before applying Weakness and Resistance)”. When a modifier is applied to the Defending Pokémon, it is always applied “(after applying Weakness and Resistance)”. [References: Muscle Band, Kricketune BKP, Assault Vest, Machamp FUF]

It is important to specify how damage modifiers are applied whether it be “to this Pokémon”, “to the Defending Pokémon” and the like. [References: Mr Mime BKT, Snorlax BKT]

Cards heal damage in recent eras as opposed to removing damage counters like in older eras. [References: Azumarill AT, Potion]

Any card that searches the deck, and in general most cards that interact with the deck, must specify that a shuffle is to be performed afterwards. The clause is “Shuffle your deck afterward.” [Reference: Ultra Ball, Jirachi ROS]

Captilisation Errors:
Always capitalised:
- [Ability Name] i.e. Water Veil
- Active Pokémon
- Asleep
- [Attack Name] i.e.
- Splash Dance
- Basic Pokémon
- Bench/Benched
- Benched Pokémon
- BREAK
- Burned
- Confused
- Defending Pokémon
- Energy
- Item
- Knocked Out
- Mega Evolution
- Paralyzed
- Poisoned
- [Pokémon] i.e. Lunatone
- Pokémon
- Resistance
- Retreat Cost
- Special Condition
- Stadium
- Stage 1
- Stage 2
- Supporter
- Tool
- Trainer
- Weakness

Never capitalised:
- attack
- basic [Energy]
- [Energy], [Trainer], [Pokémon] cards
- damage
- damage counter
- deck
- discard
- discard pile
- hand
- heads
- opponent
- tails
- this [Pokémon]

Thankyou to...

Common Attacks Compilation
Deciding on your attack's name can be a difficult task when faking. Coming up with something original can be difficult due to the smorgasbord of attacks in the entirely of official TCG.

And it's up, after months of dedicated work! Many thanks on behalf of the Creative Works team to everyone that helped make this project a reality! I'm really excited for the future prospect of card faking, and I look forward to the development of the faking community. And let's not stop here - let's continue supplying the community with resources and guides!

Just a little note, I've now locked this thread and the Skype chat that was used for the project has now been renamed as the "PB Faking Community Room", so anyone in the faking community can join and easily ask questions and the like.

Otherwise, happy faking!
