TCG on 'pedia

[Archaic]

I'm looking for someone interested in the TCG who would be able to dedicate themselves towards creating pages on the various TCG sets, archetype decks, and possibily some of the more important cards. Applicants should post in this thread.

[Mew Jadester]

PinkMew, you are sarcastic.

Well, Archiac, I can help out - yes I am serious.

 

[Artruis]

I have one of the old Pojo magazines with all the card lists up to Neo Genesis in English, and Neo 3, plus all these promo cards in Japanese, I can scan them for you if that helps any?

Cheers Liam

A list of all the cards from every set would certainly help.

 

[Mew Jadester]

I just whipped up a page on EX Delta Species in the style of the original pages from fakecard.com. Any suggestions for improvements? I'm trying to extract a proper set logo at the moment.

EDIT: I uploaded the set logo, but the image isn't appearing in the article for some reason. Some help from someone who understands wikimedia better than me please?

 

[Archaic]

Fixed the set logo, using the one I'd uploaded earlier myself for the BulbaNews article. Looks like you might have simply got the image name wrong.

 

[Zhen Lin]

Hmm, why is it spelt '[delta] Delta'? Isn't that... redundant?

 

[Archaic]

That's how it's written on the cards.

 

[Zhen Lin]

The set name is listed on the cards now? I really have to get around to looking at the layout of the new cards...

 

[Archaic]

It's not written on cards as a set name. Some certain Pokémon are marked out as "Delta Species", Pokémon which have been altered by something that was in the backstory behind the set.

 

[Zhen Lin]

It's not the δ at the end of card names I'm asking about, it's the phrase "δ Delta Species".

 

[ZoraJolteon]

A Real "δ Delta Species" Pokemon.

 

[nYoo]

A Real "δ Delta Species" Pokemon.

hm but that's completely in caps, so you can't really tell. It could be "delta species" in this fancy small-caps thingy to make it look cool. (I hope you know what I mean ... the one which is done in css by "font-variant: small-caps;" or so)

 

[Archaic]

It's not to make it look cool. It's to specifically label a group of Pokémon. It's kinda like a Metal type counterpart to the Dark Pokémon....with a few differences. The whole thing behind the Delta Species is that their types are somewhat different to the usual. For example, Fire/Metal T-Tar and Mewtwo.

 

[Zhen Lin]

Hmm, I see. Perhaps they intended it to be a logo + text combination - that δ looks a bit stylised. How are they referred to in the book text?

 

[Archaic]

I don't know yet. You'd have to ask someone who's been to a pre-release in the US.
