RedRecker Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Hey guys, it's been a while since I posted some cards on here and that's because I've been working on this set. It's taken a lot of time and effort to get these to be what I hope are some of the best Pokemon cards around. I'd noticed when looking around at what people had already done on the forum that they seemed to struggle with getting the evolution idea to work nicely with Yu-gi-oh, hopefully my idea works, but let me see what you think. Oh, and if there are any big problems you can see, please tell me now so I can change it early on as I'm planning to do ALL of the Pokemon created so far plus some extra, special ones that I've seen around. So I present to you the first 31 Pokemon. Disclaimer I do not own the artwork used for my cards. I only use them as a means of increasing the overall quality and effect of my work. I do not claim ownership of them.

2sick4u Posted May 4, 2008 Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Dude. Not bad ;D.Making pokemon cards myself, i know your pain. I just wouldn't put "POKE" where effect should be. I would kill for your ekans picture. I would literally commit a crime for that picture, as i spent 2 hours getting the crummy ekans picture i have now. Deviartant decided not to be helpful. Anyway. Because of all the pictures being TCG rips, but of good quality, ill give you a say.. 6.5/10? would be 8-ish, but the putting of the name in the [Type/Effect] Area Didn't work for me =S.

RedRecker Posted May 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2008 Thanks for comments so far. Yeah, even I will admit that some of the pics are really bad, but its so hard to find pics of every single pokmon out there. The popular ones are easier but ones like butterfree, beedrill, venusaur (god damn venusaur!) are so hard to find images for. If you can find a better one please let me know, otherwise tough just put up with it, I'm doing the best I can.And yeah, 2sick4u, its a real shame you don't like the idea of my Poke type with the effect and the placing of the name next to it, but this cannot change as I would need to redo every single card I have made so far (being 92) and I'm not going to. If it's just that you don't understand why, let me know and I'll explain as best as I can.Oh, and if you want my ekans picture by all means take it from my card. It's not mine so I have no right to stop you. Good luck with your pokemon cards, let me know when your done and I'll have a look at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v8561v Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 They just need to remove the ''POke'' and other types.Also,the name before the effect doesn't fits well and the text is too long.*coughsubtitlescough* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 um...not bad i have to say. the poke on your effect thing should be pokemon.not bad monsters there, but i've seen that pikachu pic for at least 10 times in this whole forum (get some novelty plz) some pics were just horrible like charizard and venusaur, some were good.but it was good overall 6/10p.s if you really wanna see pokemon cards go to my thread at: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/showthread.php?tid=43423&pid=656751& Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRecker Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Yeah, you have a point with the pictures, I'll change the pics on the ones mentioned when I can; pikachu, charizard and venusaur, so thanks for that. Hopefully you'll prefer what I find. However, you are incorrect in saying that my Poke part should be Pokemon. How do you know that? You didn't make these cards, it's meant to be the way I made it. Besides what would it be like if I said "you can Tribute the above Pokemon monster"? Now to me that just sounds wierd. Frankly, all I've really heard with this set is people complaining about the bits I've changed on the card, like the [Type / Poke], to make them original. Only 2sick4u has said to me that it's my idea and I can do that if I want, and that's right. It's my idea and I want to stick with it. Furthermore, as no-one has commented on the actual effects of the cards, not even on the OCG, this makes me think that you are only looking at the way the card is laid out and the pictures, then if you don't understand it you don't bother to go any deeper. So, I would appreciate it if further comments addressed the actual content of the card effects and not just complaining at my alterations in the card's mechanics. Now, if your simply confused about it, then please visit my card archive. Link below: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/showthread.php?tid=32038 There is a picture there designed to explain the changes I have made to these cards. I bet I'm not the first person to make changes to a card's structure or layout and I bet they aren't being criticised for it on every post. *Sigh* ok, I've had enough with this for now. I appreciate constructive criticism, which I have seen little of so far (except for 2sick4u and warmaker29, you did have a point with the pictures and I'll work on that) but I don't appreciate comments that are more destructive. If you attack the very base of the card, what do you expect me to do about it? That's not constructive criticism at all, I can't change the very basis I built these cards on. If you don't want to accept that then just don't post here anymore. Goodness look at me rant on. I know this is a lot, and that you're all just going to ignore me anyway, but I get really annoyed when I spend so much of my own time making these cards with it only ending in very few helpful comments, or practically none at all. Even when I posted my Naruto Set on here, next to no-one said anything I could build on. Can anyone explain why? Oh well, I'm going to finish this here before it becomes an essay rather than a post. I hope the next comment has more to say about the ACTUAL cards (I don't want to hear anymore complaints about the POKE part). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
