Hello Toro! For our anniversary, we decided that it would be fun to let the community add to our universe a little more! So without further ado, we'd like to introduce the first Toroan Form Contest! This contest will have you create a concept for a Toroan Form that could fit in our universe, and will be reviewed and judged by the GMs to see if they would be brought to life! The criteria that will be judged include (but are not limited to):
★-Design: This isn't an art contest, but we are looking for cool and possible designs!
★-Stats/Moves/Abilities: Is it viable? What kind of battler is it? Tell us!Design is super important! Will it look cool, or cute? Friendly, or intimidating? How does it fit with the 'theme' of your Toroan Form? We'll take art submissions or mock up textures of the Pokemon for this - but fear not! If you aren't the artsy type, we'll also judge text based descriptions on an equally fair scale. Texture Work is also an important part of this design, as if the texture is awful then it will be very hard for our texture team to work on creating it!
I heavily suggest making sure the Pixelmon Texture is able to properly be painted to your wants.
★-Lore/Theme/Aesthetic: Is it unique? How was this variant born?Your Toroan needs to be balanced! Stat distribution is important, whether it's a fast attacker or a sturdy wall. Abilities and moves are super important as well - bonus points if it fits the 'vibe' of the Pokemon! As a note, Toroans should share the same BST as their original counterparts, so no buffs or nerfs. You can either re-arrange the individual stat values, or re-distribute them entirely to your liking! Likewise, Toroans should have the same amount of moves as their original counterpart, so don't go removing/adding less or extra. Note that these may be subject to change if your Toroan is selected. (Disclaimer: You don't need to make a WHOLE moveset for them - just a few select moves would be good! Though if you wanna, go wild!)
What's the lore behind this Pokemon? You could mention how it changed into this variant, or maybe some flavor text (such as how Toroan Dratinis eyes never open, or Toroan Eldegoss loves to dance to spread its spicy seeds)!
Your Pokemon should also have a consistent theme to it. Toroan Relicanth, for example, is a cool lava fish that had its first change in forever due to the shifting environment of Garnet Island. Toroan Shiinotic is an icy mushroom that spreads its spores like snowflakes! Don't overthink it, just have fun!
