That looks nice. Better than I can do for sure.
Although sprites are suppose to face, not down, not right, not left, not up, but face at this angle:

First of all; USE .PNG AS YOUR SAVE FILE TYPE. IT MAKES SPRITES RETAIN THEIR CLARITY AND ORIGINAL COLORS WITHOUT THEM BEING DISTORTED. Sorry if that seemed like yelling, because it wasn't. :)

Well first I'll nitpick at design, since that's a major selling point to me. This creature doesn't seem all that different from your average, everyday television, besides appearing to be one from the 50's. You should work out a creative design that balances reality and a cartoon quality. For instance, look at Trubbish. It looks like it could be alive, but it also appears to be just a trash bag if in the right circumstance. If there's one thing I see when people are making sprites, its the common fallpoint to not have a solid and attractive design. Not enough embellishment is your issue here; for most people its making it TOO embellished, like adding wings onto a fox or spikes onto a rabbit. That face seems to be the most interesting part of the fakemon so far, so all you need to do is carry that through to the rest of the sprite.

Your shading seems to be on the fritz, so I'll throw this tutorial at you. This helped me out with spriting when I was just beginning. https://www.dragonflycave.com/recoloring.aspx#scratching

I was about to say that :P
And yeah, save them as a .PNG next time.
For shading the light source is from the north-west.

:o i see it now,the colours are really messy.
Thanks guys for telling me ^^
It would be a big mistake if i would post sprites
like this into public and then ppl would download it.
It wouldn't look good in the game heh,...
 
Okay, here's a Blob thing, decided to call it Blood the Red Blob of Slime :D

I think the shading and curves are of, but what I think is the worst is the shading....

Here it is,..... Angroud !!
 
Here are my first attempts at overworld spriting. I did make their other frames but lost it which made my excrutiatingly angry.

The 1st one is just an alien thing with a black robe thingy. Its definitely not best.
The 2nd one is my attempt at the male protagonist from BW. I dont know what his name is
The 3rd is a girl though with her hair pulled back. And she has a hat on her head, which is covering her hair.
Tell mwa what ya think. mmmhmmm?? Thanks
 
Electablizz and Electablaze

I want some constructive criticism on these guys. The only problem is that you can't suggest for new body attachments the outline has to be exactly the same as Electivires.

Hey guys. I will comment on your sprites but could you guys say something regarding mine as well? I am not that great of a spriter but I will try my best to help you.

Kazoki, your cloud, lightning sprite is sadly saved as a jpeg. That makes it look all gross and you cant do anything with that sprite. SAVE IT AS PNG.
I see you saved the bird, duckling as a png, so keep it that way. I like the duck but its shading looks kind of strange in some parts. Remember that the light source is to the top left. And I think the duck should be facing a little more downward. Great job otherwise!

Novastar. I really like those sprites. Are you asking for which palette is better or is that the male and female version of the sprite? I like the one to the right a little better for some reason. The shading and the lineart look great!!!

Finally, CharGrilled. Those are pretty sweet looking electivires! The only thing that I would have to say is that on the blue one maybe the outline color that you are using could be a little bit darker.

Well. Their heads are very large for overworld sprites, unless it was intended to deviate from the Pokemon style. The shading is good on these otherwise. Also, that's Hilbert, the boy protagonist I mean.

Anyways,great job!

Actually it was going to be the water starter of the region I'm starting to make.

It's the regular and shiny versions. Anyways I decided to go with the previous shiny palette over the original and made a new shiny palette.

Hilbert? Never would have guessed that!
Yeah, it wasn't originally intended but I kind of like the way they look so I might make them like these for the hack I am planning to make. Thanks for the comment!
