Flash Challenges are freeform artistic prompts centered around a particular theme, meant to inspire creative works for whomever wishes to take them on - and now, with the first Pokémon RPGs for the Switch released into the world, the time has come for a new one!
These don't have to be related to your particular playthroughs, and even those who don't have the games or aren't particularly interested in the game are welcome to participate - you could very well create a work featuring Pikachu or Eevee themselves - or just a journey through the Kanto region with your closest companion of a Pokémon by your side. And of course, works featuring the latest introductions to the Pokémon world, Meltan and Melmetal, are also highly welcome.
Visual and written works (artwork, stories, articles)
Most works will be submitted via the Creative Corner in the usual manner. In order to mark your entry as a Flash Challenge entry, you should tag your work with the tags flash challenge and let's go. It's also helpful to post a link to the work in the comments for this article. And of course, if you do not mind us featuring an entry you've submitted to the Flash Challenge on our social media profiles - be sure to tag it with the Pokecharms-Social tag as well!
Trainer Cards
To submit trainer cards, just link to them in the comments for this article. If you're not sure how to do this, there is a guide here.
Good luck, everyone!
