OrangeManiac Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Um, so.. as the tiers are changing constantly how exactly would you rate the entry if the metagame is different in the end of submission time while it was when the submission was made? Or are the tier's current state taking consideration when valuing about this entry? Link to comment

Shomari1 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) I like the challenge ok, but i think some areas won't show the creativity a person can express when you say the ability and moves are supposed to be written as they are in game which could also just be a skew from an existing one. Example for ability: "Warm sensations"-"X pokemon moves faster in sunny weather." Example for moves: "Cartwheel." "Cartwheel raises all stats of one pokemon +1 stages."

DoubleJ Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) This looks legit. Inb4 can't win cuz no art skills. Also props for saying a shiny gift without comp, but still making it comp. Hope this becomes the new standard and that shiny gift without ivs and nature options just go away. Edit: Also what does a finished pokemmo metagame look like? Does this poke have to be final evo or no evo? Edited June 19, 2015 by DoubleJ YagamiNoir and SirAlbert 2 Link to comment

CaptainGrey Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share Posted June 20, 2015 I received some message for a translation in french so I added it in the thread :). Sylou and Hassan 2 Link to comment
Hassan Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Loving this offical, looking forward to seeing these entries. Good luck everyone \o/ Link to comment
Kiliminati Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) I received some message for a translation in french so I added it in the thread :). Question: Can we use pre-existing creature designs and morphology found in other games that aren't Pokemon to serve as the art/appearance for our contest submission? Edit: This means that we would have to draw the creature ourselves, but the idea would come directly from another game. Edited June 20, 2015 by Kiliminati Link to comment

Kiliminati Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I don't see the interest. Create a pokemon is a call to your imagination. So is it OK if we draw inspiration from a game then? Not sure if that's a yes or no sorry :< Link to comment

dsteel23 Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 When You Say: 10. 3 Pokedex entries and add a species. Does that mean we create '3 New Pokemon Entries' ? Additionally, Can we create a 3 New Pokemon Evolution? E.g. (Pichu - Pikachu - Raichu) ? Link to comment

MrSeverO Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 For the 1st topic, do we have to create a new concept for it or can we use existing concepts like "tank", "sweeper", "wall"...?? Link to comment
