Creating Pokémon: Task

Creating Pokémon: Task

If you want to be a Pokémon Master than you have one job: capture all 151 of the original Pokémon with the help of Niantic's latestmobile application, "Pokemon Go." Just like Ash Ketchum, you must travel across the land and search far and wide to catch them all. However, as you go about your journey through the neighborhood, you'll start to notice something that even Ash himself struggled with in the beginning. Some Pokémon are more common than others. If you've downloaded the app, you may have already run into handfuls of Pidgeys, Rattatas, and Caterpies. Meanwhile, you have yet to capture a Pikachu, Dratini, or Magnemite.

To give Pokémon Go a more diverse selection of Pokémon, for a future Pokémon master to collect, you will be designing an original Pokémon with a Pokémon Card.The Pokémon that you create will need to be given a Binomial Nomenclature based upon your Pokémon’s specific characteristics and cellular structure. Your newly designed Pokémon will be sent to the Pokémon Company.
