Description I always wondered how Gameboy exclusive cards from the Pokémon TCG would look, So I gave it a shot .  Since the best reference I could use was the little scan that exist from a price guide, I asked a friend (which can be found here turnip-miracle.tumblr.com/ ) help with the illustration, and here is it. 

This proxy has adapted the "random effect" on the GB cards to be played in real cards. The easiest way to do was with a six-sided dice, so any suggestion regarding the wording will be apreciated. GB logo on the card is still missing, but hopefully I'll be updating this with the logo soon, once I have it. On my experience, Mew cannot deal more than 20 damage (which does rarely), so 2 coin flips seems accurate, and it often deal a special condition, so it's worded so you have a 60% ratio of getting a special condition (Burned was not included as its not part of the format).

I know this is old but, for the first half of the effect, wouldn't this wording work better?

"Flip 2 coins. This attack does 10 damage times the number of heads. Then, roll a six-sided die..."

Or, if you want to avoid typing out 10x (for more effect space):

"Flip 2 coins. For each heads, put 1 damage counter on the Defending Pokémon. Then, roll a six-sided die..."

It would be easier to write, but after testing a lot mew on the game the odds should be 50% 0, 25% 10, 25% 20. It works similarly to Dark Raichu which has similar odds and it was worded like that in printed cards. It was a pain to test many times, but I tried to go for the most accurate representation of the attack in the game.

I thought the wording was wierd  and needlessly repetitive, but it turns out I'm just bad at math! xD

Still a couple typos in there though (its instead of is, dice instead of die, active instead of Defending, and a comma where a period should be).

Oh! I'm gonna check that, I remade the card after I moved from GIMP to Photoshop, but I haven't remade the playable versions
