Hello, So I’m doing an raffle. All you have to do is sign up for the the Ruff Publishing newsletter and you are in the running.For every 5 sign-ups, I'm going to raffle off a random custom animation.^(The length/quality would just depend on how cool your description is of what you want animated)**(only SFW stuff)
Last Pokemon Animation

This newsletter would be sent *out at most* once a month, but probably less than that. Basically, if a current month doesn't have enough content, it will combine with the next month (and so on) until we have a fun thing to look at. The newsletter would contain my current commission prices/slots and general advertisements about projects I'm doing and also any winner's finished animations.

I need to get the gift poffin but I only have one copy of the gen 4 games, I’m trying to make my cranidos a ribbon master so I desperately need the rest of those ribbons before the 3ds online service shuts down. I know of a way to get ds online on the 3ds ,so please, if you can help me I will send you further instructions.

The gen 3 master rank smartness contest is BEATING MY ASS. There’s this natu and... actually it’s a long story, the point it I have combo moves I maxed out my stats I have the scarfs and I’m still losing. Any advice?

Hi Everyone!

So with the prices of pokemon cards & products going sky high recently I'd imagined that it's probably pricing a few people out of their dream cards so I thought creating a prize competition site where they could have the chance to win at a much lower cost with decent odds might be of interest & actually create some good!

This is the site here, just launched! :) https://passionforpokemon.com/

I'd be super interested to hear if there's any feedback on the site layout/design & if you think people would be interested in this? Along with anything else that comes to mind... :)

Seems pretty quiet in this thread so I wanted to share a spicy idea. How about a playthrough for contest coordinators like they did in the anime?

RULES:

1. This playthrough can be ran on R\S or ORAS. You are a Pokemon Contest Coordinator and your goal is to be the ultimate contest master.

2. Only 1 Pokemon allowed for each contest type (coolness, beauty, cuteness, cleverness, toughness). You cannot use a Pokemon that has won a coolness contest for a cuteness contest for example.

3. Each contest rank is assigned to a contest hall (Normal - Slateport, Super - Verdanrurf, Hyper - Fallarbor, Master - Lilycove). You are not allowed to do a rank at any contest hall other than its assigned hall.

4. Each contest type for a given rank must must be completed before the city of the next rank can be entered.(the cool, beauty, cute, clever, and tough contest of normal rank in Slateport must all be completed before you enter Verdanturf)

5. You ARE allowed to replace Pokemon but the contest type cannot change.(if you used a Pikachu for coolness contest and want to switch it out for a Flygon the Flygon can still only do coolness contest)

6. If a Pokemon loses the same contest (type and rank) 3 times in a row that Pokemon must be replaced before another attempt can be made on that particular contest.

7. The playthrough starts when the opening cutscene starts and ends when the final master rank contest ribbon is obtained (all master rank contest ribbons obtained).

8. Have fun on your journey! :]

I went back to gen 3 and am going after SPECIFIC nature shadow pokemon for 2 reasons-

1. Battle use
2. Have a move pool that will blance out in contests.

First up is Makuhita. I'm aiming for a defense boating nature without the attack stat getting effected.

View Poll

Hey, so I know this thread might be dying but I still would like to ask for help What individual pokémon would be great for each contest? So far I know only this one.

Cool- Beauty- Cute- Barboach Smart- Tough-

I'd like to complete the Lilycove Museum Art Gallery with different pokémon, also I played the game like 9 years ago and nostalgia brings ne back to play it again.

May I ask for the pokémon, moveset and nature best for each category? Like I know Barboach should have Mud Sport, Water Sport and Water Gun, but not the best nature for it

A few buddies and I are having a contest tournament followed up with a battle tournament to determine who has the best team without the use of legendaries. My idea is to use Froslass for smartness, Milotic for beauty, Kabutops for toughness, Seviper for coolness, and Blissey for cuteness.

I've got Froslass all figured out and ready to go and Blissey has soft-boiled and egg-bomb for moves. I'm stuck for everything else after that though! Can Reddit help a battle-junkie get into contests?

[6th]Hello, everyone! fire_Damage here. Back when the Diancie codes came out I got one the day of release. Since then, I received 2 codes (USA) as gifts from friends. I don't need these so I will be giving them away in this thread, and I know some people were not so lucky to receive even one code. Anyways, on with the contest and the rules:

First and foremost, here is proof that I have these codes. And some more proof.

Rules In order to receive a code, I would like people to write a short story that includes you and Diancie. It could be anything you can think of between a day in the life and an action-packed battle. Anything goes as long as it's SFW.

Winners I will choose two winners to receive a code each on 11/15/2014 at 1:00 PM PST at which time I will PM those users their codes. The first will be the person whose story is most well written and the second will be chosen at random so everyone in this thread has a chance of winning. (Note: I will stop reading new submissions after Noon PST on 11/15/2014.)

As for the judging of a well-written story, I enjoy reading just about everything. I will do my best to be as objective and subjective as possible in choosing the winner. Of course, since one person will be chosen at random and since there can be a low turn-out, some people might submit nonsense or one-sentence stories. In this case, I will just choose my favorite.

Either way, I hope you participate, and I look forward to reading every submission!

EDIT: Alright, the time is up.

The winners are:

• The most well-written story: /u/SilverBlossom

• The randomly chosen (using a number generator): /u/Jirachi3

(I had comments set to best and then rolled between 1 and 5. It came up 2, so the second post on my page was /u/Jirachi3)

I will be PM'ing you two the codes in a few minutes. Please confirm once you have them :)

This is my first contest so I hope everything goes okay~

The other day I saw /u/chipsafari 's trade post and it had this art attachted to it: http://i.imgur.com/rS9VkWW.jpg .

I thought that it was so cool, I decided to have a contest to have my team drawn like that! I'm thinking about trying to get it put on a sticker for my viola case actually lol

So the most important thing! Prizes!

• 1st Place: Shiny Goomy|Sassy|Gooey|31.31.31.xx.31.31
• 2nd Place: NA American Event Pinsir!
• 3rd Place: Any breeadable from my list

More Contest Details:

• Contest will run until Monday, unless I get a few extension request.
• I will choose the winner based off my own favorite submissions.
• No stealing! Original submissions only please!

Finally, the details of my team!

• Noivern
• Azumarill
• Manectric
• Venasaur
• Raichu

• (and yes i know this is 7 lol) Togekiss!

Artwork doesn't not have to be exactly like the picture above, that's just there for background on what inspired this contest!

Fine Print: Will reject submissions that look like they put no effort into them. I feel like I'm giving away nice prizes, so no stick figures please lol!

EDIT: This giveaway is closed. Sorry :(

Hello everyone! As some of you know, /r/PKMNRedditLeague opened up a few weeks ago, and we are challenging all of you to come join us in some heated battles!

Hello folks. After half a thousand egg hatches I finally got a shiny Honedge which I intend to use in competitive battling. I have a few ideas for a nickname, but seeing as how sword names are plethoric, I thought it would be fun to let people compete over the name!

Rules

1. My brother and I will be the sole judges of this contest.
2. Only 1 nickname submission per account (subject to change depending on how this post goes)
3. Please use ctrl+f to check if anybody submitted the nickname you thought of first. No duplicates!
4. Non-existing sword names allowed! Fantasy literature has thousands of cool sword names, but if you come up with one on your own don't be afraid to post it!

I'll check this post as often as I can, but please keep in mind that real life sometimes interferes.

Good luck!

Going to be getting the shiny charm very soon and so i'm going to be hunting in friend safari's for shiny pokemon to give away in contests. What pokemon should i hunt for first?

The contest ends on the 20th of January!

Greetings all!

In my stay at an inn in New Hampshire, I noticed that the owner of the inn had a copy of Pokemon Black, salvaged from a room. I put it in my DS and had a look, and let me tell you, someone was probably annoyed when they discovered they lost this. I'll list some of the identifying features of the game, and let me know if any of these sound familiar, or if this belongs to you.

The trainer's name is Mickey, ID No. 54999, adventure started 3/9/2011. There's about fourty hours logged, all eight badges, plot complete. The PC boxes are full of pokemon transferred over from Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum. Many of these have the OT of Kim or Kimmy. A significant other who owned the other version, perhaps? Who knows. Many shinies, some that smack of illegitimacy or outright scream it, but I'd need to hook up to Pokecheck to test that for sure. Some notable mons in the PC include a shiny Ho-oh, Venusaur, Darkrai, two Shaymin, Lapras, Heatran, and Arceus. There's also the legendary birds, (a Zapdos called NICK AWTRY, a Moltres called FIRE, and an Articuno called NICK JR), and two sets of the DPPt mascots. Mickey doesn't seem to have any items that are out of the ordinary, aside from a Liberty Pass. This fits in with where he was when I booted up the game, on the dock in Castelia City.

That's about it, I believe. I'll ask the inn owner if I can have the game. He'll probably say yes. I'm not trading any of these at the moment. Don't ask, I'm sorry. If you are Mickey or Kimmy or know them somehow, please be in touch with me! For verification purposes, I would ask that you name the inn I found the game in, or the town. It's a bit dodgy, I apologize, but it's the best thing I can think of. Maybe your starter and your current team, or the one you beat the E4 with. Cheers and happy new year, everyone.

This contest ends on New Year's Day 12AM. Or until there is at least 5 entries...

A simple haiku contest to help rejuvinate this sub, maybe. Tell your friends!

1. Must be 5/7/5.
2. Must be pokemon related.
3. One grand prize, four runners-up.
4. Multiple entries are allowed.
5. You can only win one prize.

Grand Prize - A 6IV Jolly Smeargle with the hidden ability, Moody. It also comes with Pokerus and the Japanese event-exclusive move, Happy Hour. All wrapped up in a fancy luxury ball.

Four runners-up will recieve a 5IV version, with all the same perks, of the gender of their choice.

You may choose between Own Tempo and Technician if you don't want Moody.

Entries will be judged by my drunk friends.

Whoever draws me and my team best can chose from any 5-Perfect IV Gothita with the non-perfect IV of your choice :D

My team is as follows: Gothitelle(Shiny), Electivire, Archanine and Absol(Shiny)

This is my trainer (He's wearing Red pants and boots you can't see em in this pic :/)

I want my team for pokemon Y to be drawn and from what i've seen in the past the people on here have some serious art chops. I would like if the pokemon are drawn according not only to what pokemon they are but also what they're nature is.

My team is as follows:

Gallade - Impish - Chevalier

Ninetails - Sassy - Kyubi

Crobat - Calm - Zippy

Ampharos - Serious - Ampharos

Octillery (Shiny) - Hasty - Shoots

Alakazam - Sassy - Zeref

You can draw my team in any medium (Pen and paper, tablet, line art, vector art, ect) but it has to be your original art work. Color, shading, pose and all that jazz is up to your digression.

The amount of 3+ IV pokemon I have has increased to too many to list so I will only list the best few:

Deino: HP,SP.ATK,SP.DEF,SPEED

Pinsir: HP,ATTACK,DEFENSE,SPEED

Squirtle: ATTACK,DEFENSE,SP.ATK,SP.DEF,SPEED

Pawniard: ATTACK,DEFENSE,SP.ATK,SP.DEF,SPEED

Vulpix: HP,DEFENSE,SP.ATK,SP.DEF,SPEED

Delibird: HP,SP.ATK,SP.DEF,SPEED

Ralts: HP,DEFENSE,SP.ATK,SP.DEF

I also have an assortment of untrained Legendary Pokemon on my 5th gen games if that floats your boat.

A parallel contest for the same set of pokemon: A drawing that shows my Impish Gallade doing something romantic/heroic toward a Serious Gardevoir (the person I like leads with Gardevoir and I want to have an inventive way to ask them out)

Again this contest is using the same pool of pokemon as the one above and yes you can win both.

Judging on which piece(s) of art that wins will happen at the end of the week (Dec. 8th)
