Slowpoke, Slowbro and Magmar (front AND back) are now done, I'll do the Charmander line and Snorlax ones tomorrow.

The ideas are there, but these need some work. 

 

Firstly, you're actually editing the wrong backsprites.... We're switching from 4th Gen to 5th gen. I supplied you with the 5th gen back sprites in the

main post.

 

That aside, I have quite a bit of criticism. 

Spoiler

Well, let's start out with this. A lot of the outlines of the normal pokemon are left alone, which creates a conflicting contrast with the the new colors set in.

This mostly stands out with Voltorb and Electrode.

 

->

 

You have to reblend the gray pixels around the eyes and the top of the sprite otherwise it'll look weird like this. When reblended, it'll look like this.

 

Though, I can't say I'm a huge fan of this color theme. I'm assuming it's supposed to be a Cyndaquil line theme. Perhaps try to mock a different Pokeball? Preferably not the Great or Ultra Ball. 

-----------------------

The hair on top of the Slowbro isn't the same resolution as the sprite, so it looks really really weird. You have to resize them by 50% before spriting anything new on them. 

 

-----------------------

 

   ->  

 

The idea of coconut Exeggcute is cute, but I think the brown is too harsh. There's also a problem with the outline again.  If you brighten the colors a bit and add a black outline for the red, it'll come out looking like this. I'll be using the one I fixed up so you can move on to Exeggutor with my criticism in mind. Though I think some slight changes to the leaves might be good as well. 

-------------------------

 

Same with Exeggcute. Amazing idea, but the execution isn't all there. the black shades are too similar so I can barely see its body. The blue is a nice blue in contrast, though. The outline needs fixing here as well. This one might need to be redone from scratch. 

------------------------

 

This one has outline problems too, but it isn't as bad. I just don't really think the color scheme here works. The blue and green are conflicting. I think it's best to start from scratch with this one.

I'd like to try my hand at Cubone and Marowak.

Brainstorm: Camo Cubone

I like the idea, but it needs a little work. There are outline problems that need to be fixed. Try changing the body's outline to a darker shade of the blue the body has. The red marks on the face needs to be blended slightly better.

Mew and Mewtwo are here! The Mega Mewtwo will be done tomorrow.

Approved! Nice work!!

Here's the beedrill line done (including mega).

 

I'll take the Pidgeot and Butterfree lines next.

A big improvement from what you showed me before. Darken the purple on all the sprites just a tad and show them to me again. Almost there!

Here's the shiny Poliwag. Wasn't sure if you were going to like red or not, so wanted to know what you think before doing the rest similarly.

Gonna work on sandshrew,sandslash and psyduck

Spoiler

 

[Ojama Yellow]

been trying to work on a shiny arcanine since yesterday, will also do growlithe later

 

im gonna be honest, im not a high quality spriter, though. so even though im working on them rn its probably a good idea to allow other people to take a shot at them either way

 

(barkus is god)

 

edit: oh yes, small mention of what palette im using exactly- im trying to give arcanine a palette similar to stoutland, with the fur looking alike to stoutlands and the manes having the color of stoutlands 'stache. figured id let this know already so that if its not a good idea I can already start working on something else

[Zumi]

Eevees are done!

ty, fixed now (hopefully). also the black lines just match the outline of the forums, they are there, jus trust me

[Bluedodobob]

Improved beedrills as requested.

Spoiler

 

Also, what do you think of monarch butterfree and pidgeospray?

 

[U-M]

Alright, updated Cubone and Marowak:

Not sure about the eye area on marowak, but Cubone looks a lot better to me.

[EliteFlyingTaco]

Put the Mega Mewtwo's on hold because I got an idea for Farfetch'd. Here's the front sprite.

[Hycrox]

Ayyyy, that's pretty good

Voltorb resembling a TM and Bluish Magmar. Yea or nay?

[Cyanna Cyril]

Poliwhirl reporting for duty! Lemme know if you want me to clean them up in a certain way. Don't know if the front sprite's edges are good enough/

 

[Guzam]

Here's what I've got for Paras and Parasect so far:

Liking the Parasect more than the Paras tbh. Get back to me when you can Janiel/Zum

 

Edit: Since it doesn't seem like anyone else wants it yet, I've got a Mankey loosely based on Stufful's color scheme (Minus the white):

Like the two above, I'll wait for approval before I start back sprites.

[Azeria]

Switched around the colour schemes for Omanyte and Kabuto for fun. 

 

Oh and I made 2 versions of Aerodactyl but idk which one I like more.

Omg... This is so cute. Either Sandshrew works so I'm going to take the one on the left.. That Perry the Platypus Psyduck is too precious. Approved!

The colors for Paras and Parasect are good but they need to be corrected. The shading is a different shade of blue entirely. Perhaps add some saturation to the purple so that the spots stand out more. Overall pretty solid job! Mankey is fine too, so if you want to make a back sprite on that then go ahead.

Also, what do you think of monarch butterfree and pidgeospray?

 

Beedrill line is accepted as complete. Monarch Butterfree is pretty nice and I like the idea. So that's approved. All I need is a backsprite (And the other gender differences for Butterfree.)

Pidgeot is fine, but I would go more toward a golden yellow rather than a greenish tint.

The color choices are fine, but they need to be blended better. The outline on Cubone's and Marowak's body are still incorrect. They should be a dark blue instead of a green. Try adding a different shade of red to the spots.

Voltorb is much better. I would avoid using brighter colors for Magmar. Try going with something darker. The outline is still incorrect here as well. It's a red when it should be dark/light blue. 

Also let's slow down on claiming stuff. Wait until I approve your other ones first. Quality over quantity is key!

I skipped this one by mistake so yolo double post. Just pretend it's one big post. Overall really solid job. 

I think I like the Aerodactly on the left better. Approved!
