Welp.

 

I know there is the Map/Screenshot/Sprite Showcase topic, but It seems to be dead.

So I'm just gonna post this here. (If it's the wrong place, just remove it or something)

 

I'm kinda new to mapping/spriting, so if there is anything wrong with em, just tell me.

 

*Warning, Big images*

*If I did something wrong by posting this, I'm really sorry, I'm

new here!*

  Reveal hidden contents

 

Is there anything wrong with the sprites or the map?
 

Thanks sooo much in advance! :D

I don't know anything about sprites. :( 

But at least I can guess who they are:

  Reveal hidden contents

And I'm sure someone should be helping you! :D

Yea they're recognizable.

I've done character sprite edits for Reborn and Rejuvenation and my tip is always look at ref as you go, if something looks off figure out why by example, but also know when to break off a bit. This is mainly for characters, but be sure to have a sketch of what you want.

For VS/Trainer card sprites you may also want to decide to either stay with pokemon's canon style or branch off a bit.

 

also!! If you want input, there's a few game mods here, but https://reliccastle.com/ is a forum that has many more fangame devs so I'd look around there for more opinions and tips.

 

also the last ones Lysandre.

Cookie for you!

 

But seriously, thanks! I'll check out reliccastle. Mugshots and Trainer sprites are something I'll practice on since i suck at them.

Woops pressed a wrong button.

 

Trainer sprites can be annoying but mugs. Ho boy. Those take hours for me. Use layers and sketches and be sure you don't mess up the pixel rule. You might not get it the first time around but you need to accept that and keep moving. It's not frowned upon to use bases, so feel free.

Here's a tip for anything you're working on. If you're not 100% proud of it, edit it. Don't let anything slip into your work that you're not proud of. Seems like a simple tip but it helps me a lot whenever I'm drawing or working on my own game.
