IDEA:
MildlyFrightenedBoy
NOTES:
With this spell, skills work in pairs.  If a creature has a skill on the right side, it will flip to the skill matching it on the left side and vice versa.  Creatures with no skill do not gain a skill.  The skill cost is unchanged except for Mitosis, in which case it costs the same as the card cost, and Guard, in which case it costs 1 quanta of the element of the card.
Mitosis -- Heal
Lycanthropy -- Stone Form
Deja Vu -- Guard
Dive -- Endow
Firefly -- Scarab
Firefly (elite) -- Scarab (elite)
Evolve -- Rebirth
Evolve (elite) -- Rebirth (elite)
Paradox -- Gravity Pull
Immortality -- Devour
Ablaze -- Growth
Acceleration -- Momentum
Mutation -- Hatch
Improved Mutation -- Hatch (elite)
Dead and Alive -- Poison
Infect -- Plague
Inflate -- Scavenger
Deadly Venom -- Neurotoxin
Psionic Wave -- Steam
Freeze -- Congeal
Photosynthesis -- Web
Mummy -- Undead
Any creature with a skill that is not included gains <element> - Generate <element> each turn.
Any flying weapon or creature with a skill of a flying weapon gains the skill of the opposite element except creatures with Earthquake.  Creatures with Earthquake gain Aqueous - The attack becomes X and the creature deals 4/5 plus the number of  :water you own divided by five.  Creatures with Fiery now have attack power equal to 4/5 plus the number of  :fire you own divided by five.
Nymphs or creatures with the same skill as a Nymph gain the skill of the Nymph of the opposite element.
Creatures that generate quanta now generate quanta of the opposite element.
This thing seemed dead inside. It seemed like an automaton, trying to act like as if it was alive. The effect was unsettling.
Orianna made a sound that supposed to a girl's squeal of glee and hugged The Ball. While it might have been touching, it was unfortunately only horrifying.

1. How would evolve/rebirth work on something like, say, a ruby dragon?
2. Firefly/Scarab aren't abilities.
3.is immortality the ability like anubis has?

1. Evolve: It becomes a Shrieker.  Rebirth:  It becomes a Phoenix.
2. Yes, they are.  Firefly Queen has Firefly, Pharaoh has Scarab.
3. Yes.  The other version is called Immaterial.

Changed the first one.

Devour and burrow... that should be self-explanatory.  Burrow is not there; it will gain the skill to generate quanta of its element.  Devour switches with Immortality.

No, I meant I didn't see them on the list. I see devour now, but not burrow. Also, what about including abilities such as vampire, voodoo, or Devourer's ability?

It isn't like it's the simplest idea I have ever made... I had to go through the wiki, element by element, and type up every single skill one by one, then pair them up, and then retype them, then revise to make sure that I didn't miss any...

Did you get burrow? I don't see it, but I could've easily missed it.

No.  (By the way, if you use ctrl+f, you can find it faster)  :)
