September Fakemon Contest; Posted 2 days early
Topic Started: Aug 30 2009, 08:12 PM (47 Views)
♣Alternia♣

Hey there, looks like it's my turn again to handle the fakemon contest. As you guys know, last month's contest was held by Snow and the month before that was held by me. So if you haven't guessed, this will be our pattern in these contests with me judging one of them and Snow judging the next.

So, if this is your first contest then I suppose you'd like to know the rules and what you're supposed to do right? Well, here they are :] Feel free to send me a PM or ask Racer to text me if you have any questions.

Rules:

  • Information MUST be complete when posting or your post will be deleted.
  • Your entry should follow the theme of this month which can be found later in this post.
  • Entries must be submitted bytThe end of September.
  • You must submit your work with EVERYTHING we mention in the submission template.
  • No stealing!
  • No legendary pokemon or their attacks!! {These include: Sacred Fire, Aeroblast, Doom Desire, Psycho Boost, Luster Purge, Mist Ball, Heart Swap, Spacail Rend, Roar of Time, Seed Flare, Judgement, Dark Void, Lunar Dance, and Shadow Force}
  • Do not hack someone elses work! In other words, don't go and look at one entry and then just make a variant of it.
  • You are allowed ONE entry. This doesn't mean just one pokemon, but this mean you are allowed only one family of pokemon.
  • The use of the Elemental Hyperbeams is prohibited. For those that do not know this means you will be DQ’d if you add the Elemental Hyperbeams to your Fakemon entry. They are for the Starter Pokémon only and will be left that way. (These are Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon, and Frenzy Plant)
  • Do not post Pictures from Deviant Art without proof of permission. You will be skipped if you post the pictures without both a copyright information citing who the actual owner is and proof of permission.
  • I may add rules as I see fit.


So, I've told you that your entry should be about this months theme but I haven't told you the theme yet. Well, this is it, your entry must have some relevance to THIS quote:
Quote:
 
The important thing was that the monsters had to be small and controllable. They came in a capsule, like a monster within yourself, like fear or anger.


What exactly does that mean? Well, it's a quote from the creator of pokemon saying that pokemon was basically meant to be something fun, that each one should have some relevance to humans in some way. What I want you guys to work on this month is picking an emotion (any emotion) and make that into a pokemon or pokemon family. If you think it is too difficult to pick an emotion then you can choose one of the following which is something I personally think would be interesting: The seven deadly sins, and seven heavenly virtues:

Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride
Chastity, Temperance, Charity, Diligence, Forgiveness/Patience, Kindness, Humility

However, if you take on the alternate choice you must pair each sin with its alternate virtue. Here is how they connect to one another for those who don't know:

Lust - Chastity
Gluttony - Temperance
Greed - Charity
Sloth - Diligence
Wrath - Forgiveness/Patience
Envy - Kindness
Pride - Humility

Your idea should be clear in the pokemon's title (Ie: Nidoran is the Poison Pin Pokemon) and in its history. The more original or interesting your idea, the greater your chance of winning. However, think outside of the box with typing or that may cost you the contest.

So, what do you get for entering? Nothing. But what do you get if you win? Well~

PRIZES:

  • First place will have their pokemon sprited by Shad and/or Sora and have said pokemon spawned in their journey at a level equal to the average of their team +5. They will also receive 500$ for the discovery of the pokemon.
  • Second Place will have their pokemon sprited by Shad and/or Sora and will have their pokemon spawned for them in there journey at Level 5. They will also receive 300$ for the discovery.
  • Third Place will have their pokemon sprited by Shad and/or Sora and will a pokemon egg of the First or Second place pokemon (their choice). They will also receive 100$ for their placing in it.
  • Honorable Mentions: 50$ a Piece :]
