    There's an error on Emerald's Shiny Gastly sprite...

    But Emerald's animations are lame so I'm not surprised.

    Silver, HeartGold and SoulSilver has the cutest Mew sprites ever.

    And Gen IV has the best Mew back sprite ever imo.

    Someone should do Gligar. Why did the colors keep changing for each one? I would if I had 15 posts.

  • Here's Typhlosion!
    Spoiler:

    Ho-oh!
    Spoiler:

    I did Gyarados too.
    Spoiler:

    Edit: I have more!
    Togepi
    Spoiler:

    I hope this one hasn't been done yet: Gastly!
    Spoiler:

    DOUBLE EDIT: Here's that Gligar, Shingy1!
    Spoiler:

    Btw, what I think happened with Gligar's coloring is that Sugimori's original art was dark purple so they attempted to match that. The reason GSC's coloring was light purple/pink was because I don't think they could bring it down to dark purple. Gastly is a perfect example of this. Then when he redrew Gligar for HGSS he changed the coloring to light purple.

    His eyes are gigantic and wide open which is slightly unsettling and weird.

    It's caused by poor shading on his eyes. The tops of his eyes are brighter than they should be, this draws attention to them in a way that's not natural. From a human point of view, the top of our eyes are almost always obscured by the eyelids or at the very least they're a large dark area serve to draw attention away from them. Because here the lighting makes it seem as if we can see Cilan's entire iris it gives the impression that he's forcing his eyes open very wide.

    It's something that can be toned down pretty easily e.g:
