Poké[type] Archetype! (written)

[Ninjask Is Bae]

I had the idea of making Pokémon cards using a sort of "formula". If you just want to look at the cards I already have, they're in the bottom spoiler (feedback is appreciated!). If you want to look at the formula, it's in the top spoiler. And I know this is too much to ask, but if you have a cool idea for a card that fits into the formula, please show me!

 

Of course some sub-archs will have gimmicks that aren't described in the formulas. (I was thinking of giving "PokéGhost" monsters the ability to be tribute summoned à la "Infernoid", and making "PokéFairy" or "PokéPsychic" or both a Pendulum sub-archetype)

 

I will make a loooooooot more cards in the future.

1500 ATK / 600 DEF

 

So, it might look like a free plus one. And you're right. Thing is, it's kind of an empty plus 1. Woop tee doo, 500 extra ATK!

 

 

[spoiler=Torchic Line]

[spoiler=PokéFire Torchic]

PokéFire Torchic

Winged-Beast / level 3 / effect / FIRE

1300 ATK/ 200 DEF

 

Can Semi-consistantly make Blaziken or Combusken and some cards below thrive on dead "PokéFire" cards in hand anyway if you can't summon it immediatly.

 

 

[spoiler=PokéFire Combusken]

PokéFire Combusken

Beast-Warrior / level 5 / effect / FIRE

While this card is equiped with a "PokéFire" Equip Spell, it can attack an aditional time during each of your Battle Phaces.

If this card is tribute summoned using "PokéFire Torchic" as a tribute, it gains the following effect:

● If this card is Normal Summoned, you can add 1 level 7 "PokéFire" monster from your deck to your hand

2200 ATK/ 200 DEF

[spoiler=PokéFire Blaziken]

PokéFire Blaziken

Beast-Warrior / level 7 / effect / FIRE

While this card is equiped with a "PokéFire" Equip Spell, it can attack an amount of times during each of your battle phaces equal to the amount of "PokéFire" Equip Spells equiped to it. If this card is tribute summoned using "PokéFire Torchic" or "PokéFire Combusken" as a tribute, it gains the following effect:

● If this card is Normal Summoned, you can destroy 1 Spell/Trap cards on the field

2600 ATK/ 1800 DEF

[spoiler=PokéFire Chimchar]

Pyro / level 3 / effect / FIRE

You can equip this card, from your hand, to a face-up "PokéFire" monster you control. While this card is equiped to a monster it is treated as an Equip Spell. A monster equiped with this card gains the following effect:

● If this card battles, after damage calculation, you can target 1 card on the field; destroy it.

[spoiler=PokéFire Cyndaquil]

If this card is Normal Summoned, you can send 1 "PokéFire" card from your deck to your graveyard

1300 ATK/ 200 DEF

 

 

[spoiler=PokéFire Torkoal]

PokéFire Torkoal

Reptile / level 4 / effect / FIRE

While this card is equiped with a "PokéFire" Equip Spell, it is unaffected by your opponent's card effects.

If all other monsters you control (min. 1) are level 4 or lower "PokéFire" monsters, this card's DEF becomes 0, it gains 2000 ATK and all other "PokéFire" monsters are unaffected by your opponent's card effects.

Other face-up level 4 or lower "PokéFire" monsters gain 300 ATK.

200 ATK/ 2000 DEF

 

This card's usage will be clear as you read the gyms

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=Gyms]

[spoiler=Cinnabar Gym]

Cinnabar Gym

Field Spell

Face-up "PokéFire" monsters gain 400 ATK and DEF

Once per turn, you can tribute summon 1 "PokéFire" monster in addition to your normal summon.

If a "PokéFire" monster is tributed for the tribute summon of a "PokéFire" monster, you can destroy 1 card on the field.

 

Makes "PokéFire" a lot faster and clears the board for their beatdown style play. The ATK boost can be helpfull as it can be stacked with other attack boosts to maybe even make the level 3's decent size beatsticks.

 

 

[spoiler=Lavaridge Gym]

Lavaridge Gym

Field Spell

Face-up "PokéFire" monsters gain 300 ATK for each face-up "PokéFire" monster

Once per turn, you can discard "PokéFire" card from your hand; special summon 1 level 4 or lower "PokéFire" monster from your deck, if you do, you can destroy 1 card on the field. You cannot tribute summon during the turn you activate this effect.

 

So this might sound like a really elaborate combo, but keep in mind that if you can't do the combo you can still do other things with your hand, but. If you have this card (or anything that searches it), a level 4 or lower "PokéFire" monster (or anything that searches it) and another "PokéFire" card (not even needed if the level 3 you have in hand is "PokéFire Charmander" or a "Master SupPokéball") you end with a pop and a board of a Torkoal with at least 2800 ATK (more likely 3300) and a protected level 3/4 with a 900 ATK boost.
