Design A TM Contest

So I decided to run a little easy Star Token earning contest. As the name states, you will be designing TMs.

For participating, all submissions will earn the Poster 3 Star Tokens and each person may post up to 5 TM ideas. So just for entering you can earn up to 15 Star Tokens. Star Tokens won't be added until the conclusion of the Contest to prevent cheating.

What are the rules?

Well first and foremost, Please do not submit any attack that is in the Custom Attack thread. Whether it is yours or not, they won't be allowed.

Secondly do not Copy other attacks listed in here. We will consider that as stealing even if you had a similar idea. Now to prevent an issue of leaking your idea and having it stolen. You MUST Post the idea here first for you to be able to claim that your idea was stolen. If you willingly share your idea, I cannot stop someone else from posting it.

Finally, practically any idea is welcome so long as it has Battle capabilities. I do want to ask that you keep Nonsensical ideas away from this just to farm Star Tokens. We won't even consider judging your attacks, yes this means all of the attacks you design, if you enter just to make fun of the contest.

Now Please follow the template to enter. I will be allowing Multiple Attacks within one post so you are able to edit. However if your edit tag is newer than someone elses post and you are reported for stealing we will revoke your entry.

Template
 
[b]Attack Name:[/b]{what it the name of the attack?}
[b]Attack Element Type:[/b]{water/Grass/Fire/Etc.}
[b]Attack Type:[/b]Special/Physical/Other
[b]Attack Power:[/b]*E|D|C|B|A|S (Rank Damage is for Special and Physical attack only. If your attack is Other then please leave this blank or post N/A)
[b]Attack Description:[/b]{How the attack looks when used}
[b]Attack Effect:[/b]What the attack does. Please be specific with the effects.
[b]Target:[/b] Please classify if this attack is Single Target (Targets 1 Other Pokemon), Self Target (targets self), Wide Area (Targets opponent's side), or Super Wide Area (Targets everyone but the user)

[spoiler=Pokemon that can Learn]In this Area you list ALL Pokemon capable of learning this attack. Legends do not have to be counted, but you must add Fakemon as well. These attacks will not be added to the Fakemon's Template, but we will have a list on here stating what Pokemon can learn what Custom attack.[/spoiler]


Winners will be chosen at the end of this Month and all winners will receive 20 Star Tokens. This isn't a conventional First, Second, Third placing. There can be more if there is a tie for the ones we like.

With this all said, have fun.


EDIT: Guys make sure you use the Template posted in this Post only. If you don't follow the template here we will not look over your TMs. Also it says to list the Pokemon. It means List them. Please do not Generalize them. Post the names or Sprites please.

Attack Name: Vine Defense
Attack Element Type: Grass
Attack Type:Other
Attack Power:
Attack Description: The user builds grass type energy which takes on the shape of a large seed. The seed is slammed into the ground where it will germinate, blossoming a number of thick vines, which rests beneath the battle field near the user. If an opponent pokemon attempts a physical attack, the vines will burst from the earth and take the damage.

Attack Effect: Prevents physical attacks. Once a vine (which may number between 2 to 4) are struck, they wither and die.
Target: Self target.

The epitome of betterness
Attack Name: Sand Tornado
Attack Element Type: :ground
Attack Type: :special
Attack Power: B
Attack Description: The user starts to spin around. While moving in a clockwise direction, the users lover part of the body ( mostly legs) throws small bits of the ground into the self made tornado. Using this method, the user approaches the enemy in order for the tornado to attack with small rocks or ground bits. It is more effective in a Sandstorm
Attack Effect: This attack takes two turns to perform. The attack makes the user unreachable with physical attacks between turns. While in a sandstorm, the power doubles.
Target: Single target

Note: I picked ground pokemon, because of the affinity to sand. Some of the were dropped because of the inability to spin around their axis. :D
