Well, I have decided to try and make a set. The set is made up of quite a few cards (91). It is not just a set, but an elaborate and convoluted scheme a way to show off my fakemon. It also includes a card I made called the Divine Stage. However, it is nothing fancy, just the Prime card with the words "Divine Stage" where the stage goes. Divine Stage can apply to any stage of pokemon because of a Trainer that goes with them, Mysterious Egg, but Divine Stage only applies to certain Pokémon. And, because the Divine Stage Pokémon are special fakemon, I'm afraid they can only be released in blurred out Teasers until I am ready to show them. Now, here is the list of cards, all 91 of them (Any bracket with "----------" is a Divine Stage Pokémon)

Anyway, the first card is... a Divine Stage card. It's Aura blurs the card, so you cannot see anything but a teaser, unfortunately. It should clear up soon.



The next is a simple Nidorino. It isn't divine in any way whatsoever, so it looks just fine.



Comments and Criticism are appreciated.

EDIT: I edited the Nidorino card. I also edited the Divne Stage one, but I don't wanna edit the blurred one.

It's a Venusaur with Frenzy Plant! :o

And why is that Nidorino so strong? 1 energy for 50 damage!?

These have quite a bit of potential, but here are a few things to note (if you want to make your cards realistic):
* Attacks with the lowest energy cost come first. If the Pokemon has more than 1 attack with the same energy cost, the one that does the most damage is listed first. If the attacks have the same energy cost and do the same amount of damage, but only one has an effect, list the attack with the effect after the one without an effect. If the attacks have the same energy cost and do the same amount of damage and neither or both of them have effects, list them in alphabetical order.
* Status conditions in the TCG are known as "Special Conditions."
* Digit orientation is always used in place of word orientation for numbers (two should be 2).
* Text should not extend beyond the silver bar below the attacks and should thus be continued on another line (press Enter after oozes).
* In-text energy symbols should be resized based on the text they're used in.
* Nidorino is a Stage 1 Pokemon, not a Basic Pokemon.

However, feel free to make your cards as unique as you like. I suppose that's what faking's all about, but many of us tend to assume you're trying to make them look real.

:facepalm: I am a frikkin idiot, I don't see how that even slipped through...

Well, still, thank you for those tips. I still have a lot of editing to do on these cards, but this helps me, so thank you.

Also, it is not the Pokémon Venasaur. It wouldn't be Godlike enough to be on a Divine Stage card. But, it shouldn't be too long before things clear up... And, I think I'll scrap Pin Rush.

Still, thank you for the notes. This means I have to redo the cards, but, I'm still learning. This whole thing is a learning experience.

Well, I have a new card now. Technically, it's two new cards, for it is a Legend card.

GIRATINA LEGEND:


Man, that text is hard to read. That was not intended. Well, I plan to have more cards up soon.

Pretty sweet Legend, I like it :) It's hard to make readable text on a LEGEND, so don't worry.

Thanks, FC. Now, I have something new: A Trainer Card!

"WHAT! A Trainer? But we're a-scared of Trainers!"

Don't worry, it functions as a Pokémon.

Yes, the Mysterious Egg. There are some Divine Stage Pokémon that would be the first stage in the games. Therefore, they evolve from this since I can't find a Prime card without the evolution thing and don't want to try and get rid of it. Its function is based off of Mysterious Fossil.
