Number 649: Genesect, the paleozoic insect

[ems97]

This is Genesect. The effect is firstly, the type which is both Insect and Machine. Secondly is what type of drives (attribute) you want for Genesect. And finally, Infestation since it decreases the target every turn (4 or 5 turns) I put the limit 3. Image is from pkmongiudizio.altervista.org

 

Edit: Well do some a little editing. While research, I fix and add the effect where the monster cannot leave the field and cannot be used as a material for anything.

This card is also treated as a Machine-Type monster. When this card is Summoned: You can change the Attribute of this card. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; target 1 monster your opponent controls; during the End Phase of your opponent's turn, that target loses 400 ATK, and if you do, that target cannot be used as a Fusion Material, Synchro Material OR Xyz Material. This effect lasts until your opponent's 3rd End Phase after activation. This card cannot declare an attack until the effect is resolved.

OCG Fix: target 1 monster your opponent controls; that target loses 200 ATK during each End Phase that passes since this effect was activated, this effect resolves after your opponent's 3rd End Phase. This monster cannot declare an attack until it's effect resolves.

The Attribute-changing effect is nice and does fit with Genesect's plates; though keep in mind that plates can be changed. It could be helpful for Rank-Up stuff or something, but there aren't any Rank 7 Insects, other than Number 28 [but it's weaker] and Machines have only Dracossack if you decide to change this to WIND and 42 for EARTH [if you choose not to change it]. In terms of 28, its Type is unknown but presumably it's an Insect [if not, then there exists no Insect Xyz to go into that is Rank 7+].

 

As it is, the ATK cutting effect is extremely slow and not worth giving up its attack; especially when the opponent can simply use that monster to Xyz/Synchro/Rank-Up or whatever. Keep in mind that Infestation also keeps the opponent from switching; you should incorporate an effect that prevents the said monster from being used as Extra Deck material or something AND increase the stat drop (200 ATK per turn is really slow; if you were dropping it for a higher amount + factoring in the Extra Deck lock, then it would probably be worth sacrificng three turns worth of attacking).

 

This is personal opinion, but you probably would've done better with making an effect designed on Techno Blast [though that is somewhat referenced in its Attribute changing effect].

 

 

Summoning-wise, Inzektors, Hazy Flames and some other Rank 6 Archetypes could summon this (none related to Insects though), but this really offers no synergy to them.
