How to make a Groudon card

1: Find a cool image. For creativity points, find one NOT drawn by Ken Sugimori, or used on an existing TCG card. I'm not saying NEVER use a TCG image, but if I were you and I really wanted to, I'd crop it well, make sure it's a crisp image, and make sure none of the sparkles from the scanner that made the card's image are on it.

 

2: Try to reflect the effect to the actual nature of the creature. In this case, Groudon's quakes making other monsters' legs buckle, and his burning rage destroying a card in retribution for his witnessing of a life taken. (I'm not sure if he'd give half a funk, actually.)

 

3: Balance his stats. 2800 ATK isn't TOO high, but high enough to make use of his legendary status without being overpowered. 3000 DEF reflects his enormous size, not really how thick his hide is.

 

4: Don't give him a lame fake type, like "Pokemon" or "Legend". That's noob, man. Knock that off. I chose Rock-Type, because he's not exactly a dinosaur, and not really a dragon. Groudon is based on a Hebrew legend of a creature called Behemoth, so he's sorta the representation of the land itself. Or some sheet like that, I dunno.

 

 

I predict no one will find errors in this card. But I would love to eat those words. :P

 

I also predict no one will post. I'm hungry for those words, as well.
