Hello!
(Closed! Thanks for playing!)
As many of you know, while most Pokemon-fans are playing X/Y on this newfangled 3DS thing, I have in the meantime frugally and super-intelligently revived my Gameboy Color Pokemon Gold cartridge by soldering in a new battery, (and am actually having way more fun with it than I did the first time around-- usually it doesn't happen that way!) Unfortunately it seems that using that cheap magic soldering iron from Hong Kong (I didn’t want to invest in a good one, this being my first soldering and all) as well as using a magic-crystal battery (as opposed to lithium-crystal) has made the cartridge... a little unstable.
As is well documented, retro gaming devices tend to have mystical transformative powers (http://art.by.virmir.com/art/link_cable), and three CF community members happened to be standing next to me when my Gameboy exploded. GAH!
HOW IT WORKS:
- If you are interested in being a contender for accidental Pokemonizational Radiation Discharge, post below! Three people will be randomly selected to get Poke-ized along with me in a group pic.
- Roll 1d251 with your post. The number you get will correspond to the number of the pokemon you potentially *might* get turned into. (You don't get a choice! Mystical retro gaming devices are seriously chaotic dangerous magic!) Note that we're only going up to 251 as that's all that existed in ye olde Gold. Easy list here (http://pokemondb.net/pokedex/national).
- If you get the same number as someone who rolled previously, please roll again.
- If you do not like the number you get, you may edit your post and withdraw. If you withdraw, that's it! No zapping for you. You only get one roll (except for the case of a duplicate above).
- Please post a reference of the character who might be subject to the Pokemonizational Radiation Discharge. A description is fine if you don't have a ref (don't spend too much time on it though because remember only three people will "win". You may request someone else's character so long as the character's owner is okay with it.
- This is open to CF members who have joined before the time of this posting.
On Friday, November 22nd, right before bed I will roll 3d251. The three entries closest to my three rolls will be in a group pic with me as we all get transformed into our numbers via magical Gameboy explosion. In the event two numbers are equidistant from a value I roll, I will pick the lower number. I will then roll 1d251 myself to determine my fate. Unfortunately I do not get to opt out if I get something horrifying like Jinx. *toon-sweatdrops*
I will likely sketch this pic this weekend and then finish it the next. I think I want to place this one notch lower priority than getting a Virmir-World page out so along with commissions and Leaf Death Nightmare 2013, part 2, so there is a possibility for this to get pushed back a bit.
Roll away!

Yaaaaaaay me I guess.

I will totally sign up for this! [:)

Free art is kinda dumb to not take, so... hope I get something that isn't bad!
-
Well, lets see how's my luck :P
EDIT: Welp, next time maybe. I hereby withdraw from this >_>

Hm, let's see.

Wanna be human for this myself. Also, if I do get picked, kinda want mine to look like a TG as well. x3
Go dice roll!
PS - Tis funny me and Toast both got pokemon of the same evolution line. x3
-
I'll sign up!
-
On the way!
-
Did you just do the soldering by experience or were there instructions? Also if I wanted to do this with an old GSC cartridge, what battery do I need to get? e.e (Withdrawn)
-
I doubt I'll get any of the ones I like, but why not?

I'm with teh radioactive bread - Human to PokéTF. :P
*takes out a HUGE dice and tosses it, sending Virmir running Indiana-Jones style*

Well then! Let's give this a go!

I'll join this too. I'm with Toast and Digitalpotato, so starting from human.
(Heh, Krabby. If I get picked, this'll certainly be amusing.)
-
I guess I'll take a gamble. Who knows, it might be fun. |:P
-
If drawing yourself TFed into a Pokémorph doesn't disqualify you, then I'll take a shot.
And I guess I'll have my reference be this, to ease things up: http://artsyaxolotl.deviantart.com/art/tallyn-309000818

I was linked to this, so I'm gonna give it a try too :3
Edit: I didn't add the ref, but now I just realized, I may actually prefer post tf, but because it may make it impossible to recognize me that way, I may just decline...
-
I'll give this a shot as well. The picture I use as my ref was done by you earlier, Vir!

I do this purely for the scientific posterity to determine what pokemon I would be! If I happen to get chosen for some reason I'll deal with that then.

I'm in

Alright, let's give it a shot.

I watched a youtube video how to do it! Never did it before but it was easy and fun. They are common button batteries, but they need to have brace things on them for easy soldering. These are the ones I got: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171103428206?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 although I think some cartridges might use a different type. I bought the lot because they were cheaper that way and I have a few more games. Was slightly disappointed to find them all still working though. [;)

Well, let's have a look at the number...
Hm, yeah, I'll take that -- reference: http://art.by.virmir.com/art/hatchlings (http://art.by.virmir.com/art/hatchlings)

Let's see
Yeeeah I'm no blastoise [;)

A chance at free pokemon art huh? I'm in, my reference is the same as for the Halloween sketch-o-than. http://feartiger.deviantart.com/art/Sitting-Fear-405050257 (http://feartiger.deviantart.com/art/Sitting-Fear-405050257)

I would get in on this, but I've already got an rather established Mew form. I wish everyone else luck.

I'll put down a description later.

Might start on this this weekend. If not, it will be for next weekend. [;)
Thanks for playing!

I recently soldered in a new battery on my Pokemon Gold cartridge! But maaaaybe I shouldn't have used that cheap magical soldering iron from Hong Kong... or that magic crystal battery, for that matter.
Result of some random dice rolling. Fellow victims:
