They'll be posted with the results in June.

Hi all! Giving you a quick update on the status of the contest judging. At this point one judge has finished evaluating all the entries, one has one story left, and the other two are both over halfway done. I'd say we're still on track to make our goal of releasing results at the beginning of...

Everyone who enters will still receive reviews from all the judges. The only thing different from a traditional Serebii contest is that the judges will only rank their top three choices, rather than ranking every entry.

@Starlight Aurate Since the entries were anonymized (to a loose degree), I'd rather not give the author list away to maybe make it a little harder for the judges to guess who wrote what. Of course, some people have stated that they entered or have described what they'd be writing anyhow, which...

@DeliriousAbsol Too bad you won't be able to enter, but I'm glad you had fun writing the story nonetheless! I look forward to seeing how it turned out. @Ivy Towers I'm glad the extension was helpful! Thanks for your entry. And to everyone else... Time's up! Submissions are now closed. All in...

Nope, all submissions should be sent to me! I just sent the latest batch off to the judges. Expecting to see at least a couple more come in before the deadline, but one way or another it's looking like we'll have a decent number of entries!

We've got just slightly under twenty-four hours left to go until the submission window closes, so keep that in mind if you're wrapping things up! We've had several submissions already, but there's plenty of room for more!

I hear you. I don't really like to do extensions because it can be unfair to people who worked hard to make the original deadline. But as this is the board's first contest, I'd really like as many people to be able to participate as possible, and considering all the... everything... that's been...

Awesome! I'm glad you two are making good progress on your stories. Is there anybody out there who thinks they're going to need an extension? I'm going to decide whether or not to give one in the next couple of days, so please speak up if you think you'll need more time to finish!

Oh man, good luck! I definitely know the feeling of an uncomfortably ballooning word count! Some people have been asking about the potential for extending the contest deadline, so I figured I'd post an update here. Whether or not there's an extension will depend on how many entries it looks...

I am going to do my best to hold judging to two months or less, and please wait to publish your stories until the results are posted.

Well, I would say that you shouldn't ask one of the judges to beta read; that seems like it could definitely cause conflict of interest issues. But I don't see anything wrong with asking someone who's entering a story of their own, since they won't be able to do anything to influence your final...

You may! You can even use stories you've already started writing if you'd like. But previously published stories, no.

Absolutely not! And if you were to pick a canon myth, it wouldn't have to be one involving a legendary pokémon, either.

One-Shot Contest: Myths and Legends The Pokémon world is full of incredible creatures, from common Pokémon capable of calling up thunderstorms to immensely powerful beings able to stop time, level continents, and perhaps even revive the dead. The humans living alongside Pokémon have been...
