44tim44- 8.5/10
There are some minor tile errors around the poke mart and the Pokémon center.
Be sure to check over your work more carefully.
Cronos- 7/10
It look peacefully but what is it? Just some trees and a Pokémon center. It looks to plain.
Try adding some grass, different path types and more.

Here is my new map.

It is the starting town.

It is the starting town.

Rating: 8.0
Reason: I like it, it is a very different take on the starter town. Instead of being small it is nice and large.
Suggestions: It might be too big. Also I see some tile errors, Mostly on the left cliffside.

Rate this please.

 

[+Sneasel™]

Rate this please.

Its not bad, but its a little empty (kinda), and the path should have those extra ends on the right side.
Rating: 7/10
Suggestions: Fill in the space a little better without using the path, and also make it less square. The door on the lab is also wrong.

Okay,

Spoiler:

Rating: 7.0
Reason: Not bad, it remains true to the original map, I don't really like the custom tiles though and it's weird how there is one house that is different from the rest. Too much empty space.
Suggestions: Put some stuff in the grassy bits like flowers and wild grass. Don't use the fence tiles. Make the circle things near the cave bigger. Change the colour of the gray roofs.

Spoiler:

Rating: 6.0
Reason: The pallete is blinding (maybe it's just late...). A route with no grass? The route altogether seems pointless as there is only one exit.
Suggestions: Make it bigger, add grass and flowers.

Spoiler:

Rating: 6.5
Reason: Way too much empty space. Tile errors in the mountains. It's weird how there are trees to the east when everywhere else there are mountains.
Suggestions: Don't put grass in unreachable places it is just annoying. Don't use fences all the time (use trees).

Spoiler:

Rate this please.

Rating: 4.5
Reason: Completely empty, towns do not look like that.
Suggestions: Use flowers, don't have each house sectioned off.

This is my maps I've made just because I'ts fun:

 

[dudez]

Description(or whatever): I edited this to look better now
and sign is supposed to be unreachable
It's edited pallet town

And to rate JZ95:s first map i liked the map but that big house with 2 doors looks horrible!(sry:P) Then one more but i dont know how to say it because im from finland and not that good at english 8/10
second map: I like it too but it looks like dead end unless you need to go caves to get forward if its so i say 8,5/10
Third map is very simple: It has no flowers or anything like that so you need to put someting decorating into it 7/10

Spoiler:

First map:
Rating: 9/10
Reason: What can I say? The map looks like the most perfect starting town I've every seen xD
The palletes and tiles are also wonderful, they look great. The mountainous look makes it look great, nice work. I couldn't even spot a tiny error on that map.
Suggestion: No suggestion, as the map already looks very good!

Second map:
Rating: 9/10
Reason: The map looks good and the mountain look on the route makes it good, The map looks great! I also like the greenness of the map.
Suggestions: The map looks great, the only thing is that there are abit few empty places so try to keep everything used up. The grass also should be in patches, and groups so don't keep the grass seperate, try to keep them in bundles xD

FIRST​

Rating: 2.5
Reason: Considering the quality of your other maps this one is really bad. Don't have a square border for water. Don't use those house tiles at all.
Suggestions: Start again, there are too many mistakes to fix.

SECOND​

Rating: 6.5
Reason: Looks great up til the mountains. Which need to be re-done, always have another layer of mountain over the cave entrance otherwise it looks like it has been chopped off. Thickness of the paths IMO is too large.
Suggestions: Fix the mountains and add more flowers.

THIRD​

Rating: 8.5
Reason: Very good, the mountain entrance needs another layer though.
Suggestions: Use a different house.

Description(or whatever): I edited this to look better now
and sign is supposed to be unreachable
It's edited pallet town

Rating: 2.5
Reason: Lots of tile errors, pointless mini-mountain. Flowers arranged incorrectly. Too much empty space, pointless fenced off tree.
Suggestions: Start again, practice a bit more before you post again. Next time don't attach the picture, host it somewhere.

Spoiler:

Spoiler:

FIRST​

Rating: 7.5
Reason: Looks great. Row of mini-trees look ugly (above the red roofed house).
Suggestions: It looks great but IMO it would look better with a different pallete and tiles but that's just my opinion and if I were you I wouldn't take it as the majority of people here like those kind of tiles and colours.

SECOND​

Rating: 8.5
Reason: VERY nice. The only bad thing is the pointless ledges.
Suggestions: Same as the first.

Spoiler:

Rating: 7
Reason: Looks great but you may have over used the ledges.
Suggestions: Reduce the amount of ledges (not by a lot just a couple). Disable the grid.

Well, i took took some of your advices, and i hoped these are better.
It are two maps, one of the first town of my hack and on of the first route:
Satus Town:

Spoiler:

Route 1:

Spoiler:

Map 1:9/10 The palletes look great and it does make sense for the beggining town but why it the top and right just trees?
Suggestion:Reduce the number of trees.The ledges screw up the end of the map.
Map 2: 9/10 Once again great map but the ledges should be placed in another place that makes more sense.
Suggestions:Think about where you're going to put the ledges.

Wow the palletes look great and pleasing. Like dshayubasa said,you have pointless ledges.But then again other than making the path longer,what point do ledges serve?With the exeption of not going back of course.
And thanks for the tip dshayubasa.
It would just seem to empty to me if i just made to little ledges.
I was also thinking of making the tiny stairs like G/S/C tiny stairs for the ledges but i wouldn't know where to put those.

Rating: 6.5

Reason: It looks okay for a starting town. I like that you added gardens, but if I were you I would make them smaller and add more houses.

Suggestions:

• Make the gardens smaller.
• I see a bunch of tile errors regarding the fences.
• If I were you I would make it so the map is not so square: make the trees jut out or something.
• This is just me but, why is that lake there? Is is raining a lot that town?
• Finally, add more house.

(PS: When you are designing a map, I find it better to just make everything black and start from scratch. Otherwise you can sometimes tell what the map is based off of.)

~C3LEBI

Rating:8.5/10
Reason:The map has good tiles but not only are there a few errors some oh te stuff just don't fit with the map like the blue house and the bush(s) that looks like it has legs.
Suggestions:fix the tiny errors and remove or replace the blue house with something else.
