Pokemon ???(name undecided)

[Chesu]

is this good for a start?

It's definitely better than before... the major issue was the size. As WILLBILL2 said, if you look closely at my sprite, you'll see that I used lighter shades in the outline as the shades in the body got lighter. The two big problems I see now are the eyes, and the hues you chose.

The eyes should be looking ahead and slightly to the Pokemon's right... they shouldn't look like they're looking down at all. As it is now, Leefin seems to be looking at its armpit, rather than the opponent ten feet away.

The colors are... well, Pokemon are generally not day-glo. This is why I was saying to use colors that already exist in the games... if you were to put Leefin next to anything else from LeafGreen, it would look completely out of place.

Oh! That's why it was only an outline when I put it in ruby!!!

Edit: - This Better?

Not really but I can't give much advice because I'm no good at outlines. My suggestion would be to do trial and error when you have time and see which ones look the best. Right here looks like you just minorly changed the outline. But I do like that you aren't giving up.

Still a bit too much black. Only use black for some smaller parts of Leefin. The legs I would suggest a darker colored yellow. Please try to make it a little smaller!

Okay! Thanks for the great advice, I will improve on my skills.

5qwerty, I threw a spriting tutorial thread together today... hmm, alliterative. Ahem. It should be up in the Tutorials section sometime tomorrow, I'll let you know when it is.

edit: The tutorial ended up in the Pixel Art section. I made this mainly for you, so give it a try!

Thanks, and I edited my LEEFIN, how does it look now? -

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

That's actually pretty good now. Eyes still should look forward, but, coming from someone who doesn't sprite, mind you, it doesn't look too bad apart from the fact that its shape is not leaf-like and it shouldn't have arms

 

[Crimson Stardust]

There can be improvement in your fakemon...
you can make it more realistic...the color play a role making it look realistic

 

[Master Terrador]

The yellow Noodle...I mean arms are a big turn off...Try not to make them so Bright Yellow...I mean its a leaf...But the Base is a bit of an Improvement...You don't have to listin this...I mean who Am I to judge Spriters...

 

[5qwerty]

Yellow is probably the most logical colour for the arms, because, you wouldn't want a leaf with purple arms, right?

This game might turn out not that bad and the Fakemon look wierd but i like wierd i guess well i think as long as the plot isnt bad it'll be good!

I just noticed something.Hows your rival master of pokemon,and he still is your rival?If he has strong pokemon,you can't battle he him,you only can battle him at the end-i quess- where you have enough strong pokemon.

I have no idea what you are saying.
And I just decided that I'm going to do everything by myself, and does anyone know how to insert scripts into a map and how to insert sprites into a map?
