Make it Double3RG
Instant (R)
For each creature you control, put a token onto the battlefield that is a copy of that creature. Those tokens have haste. Exile them at the beginning of the next end step.
IIW: Take an ability that has been previously been printed on a Magic card and design a new card with that ability as a keyword, ability word, or keyword action.

A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
Note: Although not an explicit "make Team Rocket" challenge, that seems to be the way most people went. That's okay, but please be aware that this doesn't technically fulfil the challenge and if your card isn't amazing, you're probably insulting my childhood.
Brofaux - Team Rocket
Flavourful, but boring. The cycle is far too tight, and they are far too efficient. 5/10
secrethumourman - Team Rocket
Too expensive, not monored or monowhite, name is too long. 5/10
pstmdrn - Red Rocket
This denounces dogs, not truth and love. 2/10
avatarz - Giovanni
Kinda cool, but tokens seem mechanically out of place. 6/10
Gallus - Dark Ball
I guess this is denouncing love? Also, probably too good. 4/10
Summon Legend - Blasting Off Again
This is not white. Ability seems slapped together, but it has some utility, I guess. 5/10
NotoriousLynx - Meowth
At first I thought "Oh, cool. Fury swipes!". And then I finished reading it. 6/10
PanchoPonceN - Team Rocket's Meowth
Too good, too doesn't make any sense. 5/10
MagicBrains - Contagious Brain Rot
Denounces truth, is probably too good. Seems a little uninspired. 5/10
Megiddo - Lies//Hate
Could it be that somebody actually completed the challenge? I think so! Lies is adorable. I've always liked Pure Intentions. 7/10
FoxxyEDarko - Butch and Cassidy
No, their motto was different (slightly). No P/T. May I suggest . . . 5/10?
GiantAmbushBeetle - Magikarp Salesman
Someone so devious obviously has no respect for truth and love, but . . . too expensive, too not black, too nobody-would-ever-play-this. 5/10
Stapler - Splashing Magikarp
"T: Untap". Adorable. Doesn't denounce truth and love, though. I also don't remember Gyarados flying. The "flail" ability is actually really cool. Red should do that more often. 8/10
bloodyspasm - Master's Pleasures
Seems kind of bad, but okay for a common, I suppose. 5/10
wizzpig - Truth//Love
Somebody else takes the challenge at face value! Truth is nice, Love is perhaps less of a choice than it pretends to me. 7/10
Ninja Caterpie - Team Rocket Motto
You can recide the Team Rocket motto all day long. Go ahead. Knock yourself out. Nobody will ever pay life for this. 4/10.
k-rad - Unite all Peoples Within our Nation
Yeah, I can live with that. 6/10
DeusofCalamity - Denounce the Evils
"Your opponents are screwed forever, but they get to choose how." 4/10
Sir Aureus - Make It Double
This is pretty neat. Once-off Parralell Lives / Aggrivated Assault. Nice! 7/10
Stapler!
It was pretty close, with Megiddo, Sir Aureus, Stapler and wizzpig all hovering at the 7/10 mark, but in the end, Stapler's "Tap: Untap" ability put him over the line.
Do this: Minecraft cards! (Note it isn't enough to just make a Zombie; there has to be something about that Zombie that makes it related to Minecraft for it to meet the prompt.)
Building Block - 1
Artifact (U)
Exile Building Block: Add 1 to your mana pool.
Exile four building blocks: Search your library for two lands. Put one on the battlefield tapped and the other in your hand.
Creeper2RR
Creature - Elemental {U}
Forestwalk
Whenever a red instant or sorcery spell deals damage to Creeper, transform it.
When Creeper deals combat damage to a player, sacrifice it. If you do, that player sacrifices a land.

================================================= Supercharged Creeper
(O) Creature - Elemental {U}
Forestwalk
When Supercharged Creeper deals combat damage to a player, sacrifice it. If you do, that player sacrifices two lands.

I've never done Minecraft, so I don't know what to do. Also, I've been doing very boring cards lately and I have too much work these days... so I'll skip some challenges before I do this again.
Spider Jockey3BG
Creature - Spider Skeleton Archer (U)
Reach, first strike
When Spider Jockey dies, put a 2/4 green Spider creature token with reach onto the battlefield.
3/5
Only once have I encountered a Spider Jockey. I find it weird that they kill themselves.

I actually included an alternative challenge in my sig if someone didn't know much about Minecraft (there almost assuredly was going to be one), CC just didn't post it. >: O But it's fine if you don't want to do the challenge.
FULL CHALLENGE: Minecraft-themed cards! Note it isn't enough to just make a Zombie; there has to be something about that Zombie that makes it related to Minecraft for it to meet the prompt.
Alternatively, design a card that says "build it" (not literally).

I'll be judging sometimes tomorrow (it's a surprise!).
EDIT: Oh, and Gyarados is Water/Flying type, that's why he has flying.
Skaab Bodypiler4
Artifact - Equipment (R)
Equipped creature has "T: Exile target creature card from a graveyard. Put X +1/+1 counters on equipped creature, where X is the exiled card's converted mana cost. Equipped creature gains all activated abilities of the exiled card."
Equip 3
The flavor is that you're piling dead creatures on yourself, gaining the abilities of the dead body.
Body Pile 2B
Creature - Wall U
Defender
When Body Pile enters the battlefield, return any number of cards you own in exile to your graveyard
Body Pile's Power and toughness are each equal to the number of creatures in your graveyard.

I know y'all all missed me *SO* much (effin' grad school is killing me)... but here I am, bringing you the awesomeness of this... (and no, I've never played the game, so...)
MinecraftB(R/G)
Enchantment (R)
Lands with mine counters can't be tapped for mana.
At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice all lands with three or more mine counters. You lose 3 life for each land sacrificed this way.
Put a mine counter on target land you control: Add two mana of any kind that land could produce to your mana pool. Abundance yields to gluttony.
IIW: Really don't have time to judge, just wanted to enter (cuz I miss you guys so much). So, figure something else out.

"Here only miracles. Here, only the rising of spirit. And yes, love if it was pertinent (which it was so often); and sometimes bloodletting. But never the prosaic, never the trivial. Here the man who brought the strangest tale was the most welcome. Here every excess was celebrated if it brought visions, and every vision analyzed for the hints it held to the nature of the Everlasting." - Clive Barker's Imajica
EndermanUBR
Creature - Illusion Horror (U)
Whenever Enderman becomes tapped or untapped or becomes the target of a spell or ability, it deals 2 damage to itself. UR: Enderman gets +1/+0 until end of turn. If it's blocked, you may tap all creatures blocking it and remove them from combat. (This causes Enderman to become unblocked.)
