I'll give the cave 9/10: it looks great, it's original but i'm still missing the final touch
the Lake of rage i'll give 6/10: the gyarados got the blue spikes on his head, the shiny version got it in red; The house looks like something saurav created and it is far from original. The good thing is that you added the fog and the tiles are good (but i still think you got some of saurav, if you do so, give credit for him).

I know it's kinda bad comment, but face it, everyone just see the thing he don't like first.
Maybe if you got a litle more experience you get the lake map really good, but the highest score i'll give on non-original map is still 8/10

Ye the lake was just a through together to be honest I wasent trying all that hard on itI have credited him in my deviant art but ya know, Its not even the full lake as you can see :D but it was just like a spur of the moment thing with the lake.

Is there anything else that you might be able to say about the cave that i could add
 
you got 3 wide open spaces.
You can fill them, but then you'll probally got the problem that the map would be to crowded.
So it's a Dilemma, if you add something it will look to full, if you don't add something, you miss the final touch.

So my advise would be: if you want to use it for a game, leave it as it be.

PS: i just noticed something, the underwater tiles got the square edges, maybe you can fix that.
If you do, i'll give you a 9.5/10, that is as good as perfect.

The map itself looks good except for the slightly artificial treeline.

Also, it looks like you are using two different tilesets stuffed together. Some of the houses cliffs, and a few other things look animated while the rest of the map looks like dp stile tiles. A quick palet change could fix that though

First thing that comes to mind - the houses clash horribly :\
For example, the house at the bottom looks way too bright compared to the others, and Kyledove's D/P gatehouse doesn't fit with the FR/LG tiles.
I'd stick to one kind of house per town (obviously excluding important buildings like the lab), and switch Kyledove's gatehouse for a FR/LG one.
A similar thing applies to the flowers; you have two distinctly different styles of flower tile (FR/LG and D/P). Choose one of those; don't use both.
Finally, some of the tiles look a bit odd; most of the trees look like their shadow's been cut off at the bottom. A quick tile edit should fix that. Also, the hedges look too bright compared to the rest of the map; try using a similar palette to that used for the trees. The water could use a bit of toning-down, too.

Now for the good points. I like the tree layout; it looks natural, but doesn't make the map unplayable. I like how you've included a shortcut from the entrance on the left to the houses at the bottom; I hate having to spend ages walking through towns just to reach a few inconveniently-placed buildings (unless they're supposed to be hidden away). Most of the tiles work well together, too.
 
To Pikastorm:
Thanks! Well, that is if your talking to me....

I'm just trying to get the region done and then I'm going to do a HG+SS redo. Thanks though!!!!!

I love what you've done with the trees and tiles! Great first town.

Looks nice, but some of the stuff is too boxy and open:

Would you please make it smaller next time, Hard to see it all.

I like it except for some of the tiles.
I don't like what I think are rocks and the little tuffs of grass.
9/10
The trees are good and the houses look nicely placed.
 
man, everytime i think of an idea for a map, i come on here, and someone has something way to similar! life is tough.

You have the concept right, placement of trees, buildings etc is good. But the buildings and trees and the grass just don't seem to match each other, the grass is way too bright too. I think you just need to experiment more with different tiles :)

Wow, really like ti Luka! The pallette is perfect, the green cliffs are really nice, and the whole idea of adding levels into Viridian, and it all looks great!
