Creatémon Challenge: December 2022 What Is The Creatémon Challenge? The Creatémon (that's "Create-A-'Mon") Challenge is a monthly event where you, the wonderful members of Lake Valor, can work on creating your own Pokémon that fits within a certain theme that changes from month to month. Rules & Regulations Each entry must include a name, type and visual representation in order to account. Other details may be included but are not required. Any art style can be used for the visual part of the entry. All submissions must contain at least one Fakemon or alternate form created specifically for the event. Evolutions/pre-evolutions/alternate forms of official Pokémon will be accepted unless stated otherwise in the monthly them. Evolutions, etc. of pre-existing fakemon that you created may be included in an entry as long as you add at least one new form for the event, which must be specified in your post. Entries may be submitted as individuals or worked on in teams. If you want to work in a group, then one member will submit the entry here, with a list of everyone who worked on it and what they did. Submissions and winners may be shared on the official Lake Valor Twitter account (@lakevalorforums), but only with the artist's permission. These are your creations, which naturally means that you are free to use your Creatémon submissions for whatever you want outside of these challenges. All submissions must follow the rules of Lake Valor. No offensive or NSFW content. Absolutely no plagiarism. Any participant caught plagiarizing will be disqualified. This Month's Theme: Arts & Crafts We're back after an unscheduled hiatus with another Creatémon Contest! This month the theme is to create a 'mon themed around art. What art is can be a very subjective term and its up to you how you want to interpret it. But if you want some examples of official Pokémon that fit this theme, Smeargle and Grafaia are both obvious painters, but then you also have the likes of Mr. Mime and Sudowoodo as preformance artists, Hisuian Lilligant and Mr. Rime are both dancers (another form of art), and there are also singers and musicians such as Kricketune, Jynx or Meloetta. But there are also plenty of other art forms out there. You could try making a sculptor, a basket weaver or anything else you want! Go wild and create something that can create something! Prizes: 1st Place: 100 pp 2nd Place: 75 pp 3rd Place: 50 pp Consolation Prize: 10 pp All Entries Must Be Submitted by the end of the month. Any posts submitted or edited after that point in time will be disqualified. The voting thread will be opened shortly after that.
Spoiler: Melpyre and Thalice Melpyre: The tragic Pokémon. Typing: Ghost/Fire Pokédex entry: This Pokémon eternally dances, leaving embers everywhere it steps. If someone looks at these embers too closely they will feel compelled to dance themselves Thalice: The comedy Pokémon. Typing: Ghost/Ice Pokédex entry: This Pokémon loves snow, and genuinely believes that everybody loves the chill as much as it does. It will lure people to play in the snow, whether they want to or not. Just something simple based off of the greek masks of tragedy and comedy, as well as just theater in general.
Spoiler: Weavling Line Spoiler: Dex Entries Weavling - Ability: Sticky Web - contact lowers opponents speed. Dex: Weavling hatch with a scarf and boots given to them by their parent. They scatter in the wind to find their own home. Worber - Ability: Sticky Web. Dex: Worbers begin to weave thier own webs to make clothing for the next generation. If fed a nectar it will change the eye color and web color. Gleaver - Ability: Sticky Web.
