These look really good. Im no expert but I think the shading is very well done. Do these starter have names yet? The water one reminds me of a cross between dratini and corsola.

And with the grass starter why does it have a white face. It sort of makes the face stand out too much and the white doesent really work with the green. Why not just have a green face? Regardless I am looking forward to seeing the evolutions.

I agree with Ciax really good. Shading professional.
But, have you concerned making the grass type face a lighter green rather than white. Still looks good just a suggestions. I love the concepts Grass Lion, Fire Dino, and Water Serpent. Really excited to see the Ivory Pokedex Complete.

Those are good,I've found a couple of flaws tho.
The grass starter's left ear(our left) is badly placed and makes it look strange.
The fire starter is very well done but the form of his head is clearly not PG :p.
The water starter is less good then the others and it has some shading problems,mainly on the bottom of it's body(where it should clearly be darker) and finally the shading on the coral creates the illusion that it's not connected to the head.
Hope I helped,keep up the good work.

I agree with the other posters. The leaf type's head seems kind out of place. The coloring does not match well with the green color of the body.

the water type's head seemed to be pretty busy. there are many unneeded features, like the corsola like thingies. If you want to include them still, try coloring it the same color as the body.

the fire dino is just epic.

Thanks for the compliments and critiques/suggestions!

I changed the design of the grass starter so it's like budew's green and yellow coloring. The ears are now floral, and more connected to the grass elements.

The water starter was completely resprited. Smaller nose, less pink, extension of body, and new tail fin! I also started it's evolution sprite.

Beyond the starters, I added a few more sprites, which may need a bit more editing. I also created a pokedex design. I will need to put the names in later this week.

Again, thanks for the helpful comments!

It seems I'm covered for comments about your fakemon by everyone else here, and the designs are really exotic.

What I noticed, though, is that the background you set for the pokedex gets too flashy. Maybe you should go for smoother colors or increase the size of the brighter lines.

Looking forward to any updates.

Wow Ty! These are really good. I finally get a taste of your spriting style. They are all really cool except the first evo of the normal ferret looks like it is missing a back left leg. Also the rock chipmunk may need to have his face changed a tiny bit to make it fit with a pokemon style. Like I said you did a really neat job. I'll be expecting more great things from you!

Great coloring and shading on these Fakemon. My favorite one will have to be the second favorite water type Pokemon on this list.

Are you planing to do any dual types yet?

Aww, I like my flashiness. lol. I may play around with the color/design.

Thanks! Oh, okay I will look at his pose and change it up a bit. I actually like the atypical squinty eyes; I think he will make up for my tendency to sprite large eyes, lol.

:t354:TG
Yeah, I have been thinking about dual types.

GRASS STARTER:
KITNIP (kit=kitten, pun of catnip plant) -GRASS TYPE
MEOWILT (meow+wilt (dying plant) - GRASS TYPE- the intermittent transformation to darkness.
LEOMINIS (leo=lion + Ominous for dark) - GRASS/DARK - Thorny-stem tail with black rose petals.

WATER STARTER:
ECHORAL (echo, dolphin call, plus coral)
REEPHIN (reef, plus phin of dolphin.)
BARBARRIER (Barb, poisonous, Barrier Reef) I am going to add on a jellyfish tentacle flowing train on it's tail, and possibly sea urchins in other areas to create an entire poisonous reef on it's body. Basically like torterra, except with a reef.

FIRE STARTER:
PONCHAR: (poncho+char)
CHARCAPE: (Charchoal + CAPE)
PYROMAGE: (Pyromaniac, plus mage) The top of his head will appear like a miter, with a longer cape. I just want to get away from the stereotypical fire +fighting starter.

Types are: GRASS/DARK, WATER/POISON, and FIRE/PSYCHIC

GRASS=>WATER AND POISON => GRASS
WATER=> FIRE AND PSYCHIC=> POISON
FIRE => GRASS AND DARK => PSYCHIC

just wonder if the bug type final evolution is gender specific?
I am sorry that I didn't get the gender Icons on the dex.
The ants are much like Nidoran. One is male, and one is female. The male one evolves into the fighting ant, while the other turns into the female ant hill queen.


Thanks for the comments, suggestions, and questions!

MUGSHOTS OF GYM LEADERS

Sorry,-ty-,but there are some problems while making your Pokedex:
1.Since your Fire Starter was based on a Dragon/Dinosaur,it should be Fire/Rock or Fire/Dragon.
2. The Water Starter went before the Fire Starter.
3. Since the Water Starter is based on coral,it should have a Rock Type too. =Water/Rock
4. The Male Ant looked like it evolves to the Female Ant,and it looked like the Female Ant evolves to the Anthill Queen or the Boxing Ant.
5. Since the "Birds" were in the Pokedex,they should be Normal/Flying Types since they ARE birds.
6. The Rock One also needs to be a Normal/Rock Type,since it's based on a type of mammal.
7. The Poison Gym Leader didn't look so anime-ish to me. Just to remind you!:D

I like the fact that the mugshots are your own style and not the canon one, though it is evident that you're going for a similar style. The faces need some work-on the upper part especially. I like their hair the most.

Also, something about the plume of the bird fakemon seems... off. It looks pretty heavy and thick, maybe you smooth it around a little and make it whip in a more casual manner, if you know what I'm saying.
This is my December . . .

Even things like balloons and birds with wings made of clouds are not pure flying, why would any normal bird be?

And the anthill looks familiar...

you could take the concept and come up with something original that doesnt look THAT similar

7. The Poison Gym Leader didn't look so anime-ish to me. Just to remind you!:D
1. I don't think that's really a requirement. There is no "it should be this type, because it's based on this." There are plenty of Pokemon that were based off of something but could have been a different type to match.
3. Again, /not/ a requirement. With it based off of a coral reef, it could be rock, grass, poison, even steel or some other type. It could also be pure water, but seeing as it's Water/Poison, it does fit.
4. That's a matter of opinion . . . not a problem.
5. While, yes, Normal/Flying would make sense, there's nothing wrong with making a pure flying type. Though, I do think these three should be Normal/Flying.
6. That . . . since it's a mammal, it should be normal-type? That doesn't even make sense.
7. . . . So? Is originality a problem? If we're speaking of anime looks, let's look at this:

imaged removed

Well, the stage-two quail(?) is especially bug-eyed. Also . . . I think the entire quail line could use touching up. Probably just a bit more shading/slightly different colors (perhaps lighter black) and . . . perhaps some of the positioning, like the head feathers on the stage-two. Maybe you could just have it facing the other way, so that it is going a bit more behind the quail, but is still visible.
And that . . . rock chipmunk thing? Um . . . is it just standing on those boulders, or are those its feet? They don't really look like its feet, and if they aren't I don't think they should really be in the design? You could attempt to emphasize the rock typing some other way.



I think the dude's lips are either kind of large, or are too . . . pink. It's probably the pink thing.
The girl is rather cool, but still looks . . . odd? Dunno why, but she is cool.

These fakemon look really good! good job at spriting :]
The birds may need a few tweeks, a different color palette in one of the evos would do the trick.

Exactly what Nakuzami said.
1- They don't really have to... Charizard is a flying dragon but it's Fire/Flying.
3- Yeah, not a requeriment. Corals can be pictured as a rock/plant/animal... so yeah.
5- mmh, I actually think this one makes sense :0... (not because they are birds, though)
7- Anime is not a requeriment. It's not an official game, it's a fake game so originality is the best.

1. A starter with those types would have either too much of an advantage or huge weaknesses. For instance, when fighting your rival the first time in the said game with a fire type against their automatic water type, hypothetically of course.
2. I would agree with that. Order shouldn't change. And Victini, is so wrong...
5. Every generation has had Normal/Flying type, so that would make sense, but it is the designer's choice.
6. That's like saying Sandshrew has to be Normal/Ground when it's only Ground. Or Pikachu has to be Normal/Electric, but I'm sure anyone here could tell you he's just Electric.
7. The style IS very different, but not everyone draws the same. And if we did, it would be very boring. D:

@ -ty-

But anyways, these sprites look pretty dang cool. Like super awesome. A little concept tweaking on them could help though. Those birds do need some reworking or to be resprited completely. They look too similar between evolutions and the third one looks like it's facing too straight on.

these are good sprites but really the only great ones are the grass line along the bottom the problem with the other sprites is they are posed in a boring way and are disproportionate in several cases such the case of the bird line the designs dont change very much between evolutions but all in all much better than quite a few fakemon spriters out there (like whoever designed the fakemon for chaos black -__-)

No, you didn't. She's a good friend of mine on deviantART and she did NOT appreciate you taking her hard work. I request that you take it down immediately.
