Although the last few days have been pretty stressful, I was really glad that you helped me out and gave me some wonderful inspirations for our restaurant. Your ideas were amazing and there was a lot that's gonna be super useful for me in the near future. Who knows, maybe my next trials will include to cook following one of your recipes, haha!
So let me thank you all for your hard work. In the meantime, some Pokemon seemed to have caught interest in your creations as well, I bet the delicious smells brought them here. Since they love your creations, why don't you give them a new home?

- details, like storytelling, presentation, pictures

This was a neat contest. Very enjoyable. I'm glad there are so many that partook. Reading over all the other recipes was so much fun; especially those that were able to provide pictures of their own baking haha!

Congratulations everyone!

Yay, the results are here!
I can imagine it wasnt easy to judge the entries, especially around this time of the year.
Plus, Mallow probably needed some time to try them all out :3
Thank you for the contest <3

And for all the winners...congratz^^

WHAT? I got best place? Wow, thank you. I'm honored.

There were actually a lot of good recipes in the submissions. I'm impressed by the creativity of the entries. There's more than a few of them I'd be willing to try.

Thank you so much for the contest, it was really fun ♥

I don't really get it why some entries are judged worse than some others, even if some best ones don't even have pictures und are sooo similar to some good ones. I really would like to know all criterias so I will do better next time.
(It is really frustrating if you sit down hours and hours, draw something AND layout the whole recipe and don't know what others made better or if there has been overseen something in your entry.)
Is there some way someone could explain it to me so I can do better? ♥
Out of the criterias listed above I (personally think) met nearly all:

- provided sources for the ingredients used ✓
- finding substitutes from the Pokemon lore and why they were used that way ✓
- mentioning Pokemon, regions, effects on humans/pokemon X
- details, like storytelling, presentation, pictures ✓
- overall creativity ✓ (even made a layout)

Woah, I was hoping to get into the "Good"-category, so being under "Best" is quite an honor, thank you! And congrats to everyone :)
I have to say that this has probably been the most stressful contest for me so far XD Maybe some of the entries for older contests took longer to create, but with those I always had some kind of idea in mind and then just had to carry that out by using the stuff I know. But since I'm really, really, REALLY bad at cooking and have no clue about anything realted to it, this one took so much more research and reworking and adjusting the whole idea over and over again. (While constantly being in doubt if I was doing it right! XD)
So again, I'm really happy that you liked it and I really love that you came up with such a different theme for a contest this time!
(And I hope none of you had to try out all of the entries and eating them all! XD)

Yay, I'm really happy that my idea was according to the rules and even made it into the best category!
I think even with some knowledge of cooking it was still quite a challenge to come up with your own recipe that fits into the Poke-World. That's why creating my entry took much longer than expected. As an artist ofc I would have loved to provide pics of my meal too. But I'm glad that the overall idea could balance out the lack of visual references ^^

Congratz to all other fellow participants! ♥

That's the thing, this wasn't about cooking or drawing.
I think the most imporatant thing was to think about the recipe itself. So, references to the Pokémonworld, links and explanations were what counted the most.
With Ashys words, "making it fit into the Poké-World", not how good it looks like.
Sure, cooking knowledge (that I totally lack^^') or drawing skills helped, but doing your research and lore were as imporatant as the good written recipe and what made it possible to be in the best category even without a picture.
That made it really something different this time and it sure took longer than most of us probably thought when they started with their idea^^'

I hope it isn't a second legendary. Would prefer there was some other event that happened around him. Otherwise everyone who didn't win best here would get double whammied all of a sudden.

I am fine with a secondary legendary, because there will be at least a second chance to receive them. :-)

I hope it's not something like normal Volcanion either. I don't like it at all^^'
But we'll see what it is^^
There is probably a reason why it was hidden, so let's wait :3

It will be shiny volcanion. Hear me now, believe me later! Mu theory is the normal volcanion will be released to the general public soon, but only the prize winners will have the shiny version. TRUST me!~
