Pokemon-Magic Hybrids

[DarkDragonite]

This thread is more for the fan of Magic: the Gathering, but I'm sure some of you Pokemon TCG fans can appreciate these. Some of the artwork on these may look janky, so if you can find some better artwork for me, that would rock. The same goes for the cards themselves...if you think you have a better ability, let me know. And finally, if this is in the wrong section of the forums, either let me know or move it for me. So here we go.

Dragonite

Alakazam

Blaziken

Suicune

Ho-Oh

And that's just the tip of the iceburg...I've made over 450 cards, so if there's a Pokemon you want to see, I've already got it made and ready to post on here.

 

[ESP]

Wow! Those are good. But the abitities seem wierd. I like Alakazam & Dragonite the most.

 

[QFred]

Awesome, please post here the Mudkip and Charmander evo line, and also Scyther please!

Where did you got the blanks, the fonts and stuff??

 

[~Sirnight~]

Really good, I liek the abilities you used on them too. THough Suicune seems kind of broken and I also think Dragonite should cost more, that's a good ability! And lastly, Blaziken seems kind of odd as a Red/Black, maybe White instead of BLack, or just Red.

Just a little kind of critism, hey, I know my Magic! But they're really good.

 

[Ultamis]

WOW i like those.Can you give a link to those blanks/symbols/fonts

 

[Poke'Blaze]

The Suicune, Ho-oh and Dragonite is the coolest.

 

[General Blaze]

Interesting. I've never played Magic, so I have no idea what the abilities mean, but their pretty cool. And I'd like to see Scyther and Pinser please.

 

[Chimaera]

Those are all really broken heh. Dragonite should have spirit link insead of gain 4. Suicine is waaay too efiicient for a blue creature.

 

[~Water Lucario~]

Really good job and very creative. I could never understand the Magic cards but I liked how they looked.

 

[DarkDragonite]

Sorry...long weekend. The program i used for this is called Magic Set Editor....all you need to do is type that into a search engine, it's been a while, so I'm foggy on posting links.

To clear up some of the confusion, I also set myself a set of ground rules. Pokemon that evolve three times without the help of an item, have the second in line make the last cost less, as you'll see with the Charizard line. The other thing was I did set certain types in certain colors, although this is one i didn't set in stone....i had to up the number of spells/permanents in some colors and take away from others. And lastly, I tried to keep the abilities flovorful....paralysis and freezing means you don't untap...posion is destruction or -1/-1 counters

*White*
Normal
Flying

*Blue*
Water
Flying
Psychic
Dragon

*Black*
Poison
Dark
Psychic

*Red*
Rock
Ground
Fire
Dragon

*Green*
Grass
Bug

Blue-White
Ice

Blue-Black
Ghost

Red-White
Electric

Black-Red
Fighting

And here's the requested cards....
Charizard line...

Swampert Line.....

Pinsir and Scyther...

Would also like to make a note, I've done moves too, so name a few off and if i got it, I'll put it up on here too....But here's three examples....
Did a "Burst" cycle for each color..

Did a cycle of 2 mana hybrid spells with my TM ability I made up....

And finally I did some spells that are sorceries but can be played at instant speed for an additonal cost...

And then there's a cycle of 2 color spells and just random mono color spells....

 

[QFred]

Awesome!

Still you must tell me where did you get the blanks!

 

[Cipher 2008]

They are actually quite good.

 

[DarkDragonite]

Like I said, you need to use a search engine for Magic Set Editor and download the program. Everything you need is right there....it gives you a blank card face...the text is automatic and the pictures you can just copy and paste...the only thing you have to do on your own is make the expansion symbol.

 

[ESP]

Can I see Espeon and Xatu?
Also I like the frenzy plant and ice beam artwork.
Oh, and Charmander seems like a better version of Frostling

Try Mogg Fanatic

I guess im looking way too much into established color pie functions when looking at these cards, I should be looking more at pokemon type/abilities. Its just I played so long and extremely competative in the game (Going to Canadian Nationals in Ottawa in August) that something about an aggressive 2 mana 2/1 FS in blue/red that makes mana makes my brain hurt.

Nice job on Pinsir btw, flavorful in both games, I would really like to see that creature printed. Scyther is also solid.

Safeguards wording is a little off though, should be able to redirect additional damage "for each card named safeguard in any graveyard" You refered to Safeguard the card name as a supertype like Enchantment, or in coldsnap coming out Snow . Ice Beam is sweet. Should probably be attach to target creature you control, more flavaful.

Whats funny is look what I did to some of my magic cards...Sorry for bad quality I should borrow the camera instead of using the webcam

Eraser + pencil crayons FTW!

 

[DarkDragonite]

chimaera......
Lol, thanks for the Mogg Fanatic save....if you didn't say something I definately would've....
With the 2 mana 2/1 FS..I could probably drop it to a 1/1 since red's first strike creatures are usaually 1/1's for 2 anyway....I added the first strike since I gave that cycle of 2cc 2 mana producers an extra ability so they wouldn't have to settle with being bland...but red is #2 in the current color pie for first strike anyway...but I mean there's mono blue creatures in my set with Trample so I'm not being too strict to the color pie for certain abilities in a color, anyway.
Plus very awesome cath on my TM keyword...I've tweaked it so much, I didn't think there was anything left......and the wordings are hard....tried to use the wizards database for anything questionable that I didn't know off hand.

And ESP, you have NO idea how hard it was to find some of the artworks for the moves...a couple ideas I had to scratch since there was no decent artwork....not as easy as the pokemon were

If any of you catch this now, I'll post my requests in this spot around 11 a.m eastern....

Oh and as a side note, If anyone can find a clearer large version of the Swampert artwork I have or a better non-foil one, post it on here, or let me know.....(And before anyone says anything, i'm going to up the activation cost of the draw ability to 1U)

 

[ESP]

Does this work?

 

[DarkDragonite]

Thanks for the attempt, but I need non-foil cards to work off of....the only ones that are foil, are like that because i couldn't find anything not.

Anyway here's the requested cards plus some.

And here's the cycle of dual lands I did.....

The wording's old on this, so you can see why I wrote the others the way I did.

I know it's Team Magma, but this is the best artwork I could find.

And let me say, thanks for the encouragement....

 

[ESP]

Natu is way undercosted. It's a better version of the already efficent Flying Men
Otherwise, Eevee seems strange but it works.

 

[Chimaera]

Whoa those lands are powerful. The worlding on the first one is prolly closer, people who don't know the rules might think they have to use them for mana as they come into play. "As Union Cave comes into play, if you do not control a creature it comes into play tapped"

Natu is cool, kind of like a creature Divining Top. Xatu is a bit confusing, "Look as the top 3 cards. Put one of those cards into your hand, then shuffle your library". I look at real cards for examples "Tomorrow, Azami's Familiar".

Evee is pretty neat. Come into play tapped seems a bit harsh compared to the power level of some of the cards but its probably nesessary, Espeon can kill ground based attackers if Eevee is saced before blockers thats savage.

Oh and the 2/1 First Strike, thats perfectly fine its only the mana production that hurts my brain, red gets it by sacrificing creatures "Skirk Prospector" and I doubt blue has it at all unless its a really old obscure card.

I use a free program called Magic Workstation to play, make decks and you can even make your own sets like you are doing. I downloaded pictures for all the cards too, it is soo much better then anything wizards has like gatheror. I know of another card creator but I forget what its called, I think it can make cards at twice the resolution but yours looks to work fine.
