As for the path behind tree tiles, those were edited by me

That's Peyi's tiles and my palettes, in the ROM base I made for PHO.

Rating: 7.5
Reason: Looks good. I don't like the flower gardens and overused fences.
Suggestions: Get rid of some fences and join the two paths together and get rid of the flower gardens.

Spoiler:

This is the basement of Tykon cave.

This is Tykon Cave.

This is Route 1.
The cave entrance leads to Tykon cave.

FIRST​

Rating: 3
Reason: Bad. Very annoying map to play. Nothing really going on in the map and it's too long.
Suggestions: Add more stuff or make it shorter, but you should probably just start again.

SECOND:​

Rating: 3.5
Reason: Little better than the first one. Still two empty the ledge path that leads to the cave entrance doesn't make sense. The border of a cave is not black.
Suggestions: Change the border add more stuff, make the ledge path possible.

THIRD​

Rating: 8
Reason: Awesome! Only problem I can think of is the lack of grass.
Suggestions: Maybe add some more grass.

Spoiler:

Rating: 6.5
Reason: Much better, I don't like the flower gardens though.
Suggestions: Don't have such large sections for each house, what are you going to do when you start making bigger citys?

FIRST​

Rating: 7.
Reason: Very nice. I don't like the new tiles though and there is not enough grass.
Suggestions: More grass

SECOND​

Rating: 7.5
Reason: Nice, don't like the rocks or the random grass.
Suggestions: More flowers, make the lake bigger.

Spoiler:

Rating: 5
Reason: No real path to follow, empty space in the middle.
Suggestions: More grass, make the player follow a path.

map title [ Route 03 ]

map game [ LeafGreen ]

comments
[ player comes in from the right side , left exit links to Aquilune City ]
[ the ledges at the top are for the player to get back to the city on the right quicker,
there'll be a lot of trainers scattered about, and the player will be able to choose between battling more trainers, or running through more wild grass ]

map name :route 101
map game:fire red

Rating:8/10
Reason:The map is great but the grass should be in the way sometimes.
There is also too many trees.
Suggestions:Make the map have less trees and put grass in the way.

 

[Luck]

Itman i did that because i just don't like simple routes.
Sure it's the first route but it doesn't mean it should be an easy road.
I just like obstacles in the way itman no matter what the route or city/town, etc.
Just personal opinion.

Rating:10/10
Reason:Cool. No errors that i found and its simple for a beginning town.The tiles blend with the surroundings as well as the fact that flowers aren't put so closely together.
Suggestions:I don't know...

Rating: 5/10
reason: the map is very empty
Suggestion: make a pathway up to the exit, and fill more space with trees, flowers, houses with no doors ect..

 

[Hyunbin]

okay... i just realized one of my maps was supposed to have three exits instead of just two... LOL
so here's the semi-new map:

MAP:

Spoiler:

I don't mind this map, might I recommend you fill in the space behind and to the right of the bike shop, the signs (wooden) probably need to be moved around and the water next to the Pokemon Centre seems to be small. Maybe connect the lakes together and then have bridges to walk across. Also a minor error, that I spotted is the tree behind the house at the bottom right hand corner, it has no stem.

I'll give this map a 6/10.

PS. I am tough judge also xD

Rating: 6.5/10
Reason: Well it looks like a good map, not too much squareness and looks ok. There were a few errors which were spottable and the error near the bike shop which was clearly visible. There was alot of emptyness in the map, like Blazichu said, you could've added some flowers around the houses...anyways looks good
Suggestion: Don't keep it too plain and simple, try to use your imagination alot more....

Map Name: Route 409
Map of: Route
Map base: LeafGreen
Other comments: This is mainly a test to see how this new mapping style is. I will bring back either Pokémon Harmony or EmberOrange, but this is the style I might use, depending on the reaction I get. Also, I will probably use different tiles.

Comments: It was supposed to be a beach-like starter town but it turned out a little different from what I wanted, I should have made the map a litttttttttle bigger to fit a lab, and ignore the border I have surrounding maps planned for the sides.

Rating: 9.5/10
Reason: This map is great. It has a wonderful layout, just the right amount of detail, and no noticible errors. The size of this map is also wonderful. the shape is great, though it is a little square. This is an excellent Nintendo-style map.
Suggestions: Definantly change the tree tiles. Peyi's tiles have many shading problems, as well as some problems with the shape. You might also want to make the buildings on the lowest part of the beach a little wider.. The one to the left, add one tile to the left. For the one to the right, add one tile to the right. you could also make the mountains of the beach a little less square.
Final Comments: This map is really good, and I can't wait to rate more from you. :)

Rating: 9.5/10
Reason: The mapping is done really great. The palletes and tiles are very good for a beach styled map. I love the shape and layout of the map, it looks like the perfect starting town. Great work!
Suggestions: Don't use amny of those red spot tiles, use them in the places which are necessary the most. Make the houses in the bottom in the sandy area alittle bit wider, since they don't look very good looking small.

Rating:9/10
Reason: Nice work Don, I like the way you've used those tree tiles in a nice scattered way, which makes it a great route. The advanced type of tiles you've used are great. The only thing is that the paths are used like little dabs only.
Suggestions: Try making the paths abit longer(I mean the dark green thing xD!)

(And sorry about the tree tile, I don't know how to change palettes yet so I don't want to insert different trees yet.)
