Okay.. Before all other details:
Do NOT post your artwork in this thread! This thread is only for questions about the contest.
There are four categories of drawings you may do, with five Pokemon assigned to each.
What you are to do is pick a Pokemon from those listed below, and convey the feeling stated in its category as best you can through your drawing.
Example (not an actual Pokemon ninja ) -- This can probably be considered to be in the Cool or Tough categories... Your drawings will be rated only on the category they are listed under.
Before you pick a Pokemon to draw, here are the rules:
All drawings must be either colored and/or shaded. Which of these options you pick will enormously affect the feeling you're trying to convey.
Any drawings not shaded or colored will not be considered for winning.
Only one Pokemon may appear in a single drawing. This means only one Pokemon, not only one type of Pokemon. For example, it can't be a group of Pikachus, only a single Pikachu. (Pikachu isn't a choice, just an example)
Any drawings with multiple Pokemon in it will not be considered.
You may draw as many objects as you like. Your Pokemon can wear clothes or hold items if you wish. Your backgrounds may be more than just color or shading. You may draw random floaty stuff, such as stars, bubbles and the like. There is no limit to the objects that may be used.
Also, your Pokemon can be doing anything. It can be eating, sleeping, using some kind of move, be in a random attacking or defensive pose... Whatever you'd like, as long as it's not inapproprate.
Edit: It is not recommended to draw your Pokemon in the exact same pose as the images I've linked them to. I'd like to see some creativity.
You may submit up to four entries -- one for each category below. Should you have multiple entries for one category, you will be disqualified from the contest entirely.
Read the bottom of the post on how to enter. This is very important. --Just making a note on this above the Pokemon list so people don't miss it. mrgreen

How to Enter:
Send a PM to me, and in the post, tell me what Pokemon you've drawn, and the category that Pokemon is under. I'll reply with a link to where you can post your entries. Read the first post completely when you get there to find out what to do.
Please don't post your drawing in the PM to me. It won't affect your ability to win at all, but it's unneccessary to do so.
Deadline
All entrants must PM the information stated in "How to Enter" by midnight Pacific Standard Time, at the end of Thursday. You have two days to draw, so there should be no problems with this.
Edit: I'll judge the entries after I see that all contestants have read my replies telling them where to post their entries. (Once those messages aren't in my outbox anymore)
Winners:
There will be one winner for each category. Each will get 250,000 gold.
Though you may submit an entry for more than one category, you can only win in one.
