    Good pokemon. nice colors could be alittle neater and other than that it is very good
    Origonality: 10/10
    You made your own pokemon from scracht and is a new idea so perfect
    Palet: 8/10 You used beautiful colors that mixed well but i would like to see soome more colors
    neatness: 7/10 There is a few pixels outa place but is still neat
    skill: 7/10 looks like its preaty easy but seems like you took tijme on this.. plus it looks kinda blurry at bottom. an average spriter could sprite this
    Overall: 6.5/10

    THE WINNER IS!!!!!!!!!!!:
    THEGATEKEEPER!!!
    SECOND PLACE IS GIR?!!!
    lets congratulate these too spriters .
    it was a tuff desicion but in the end i picked thegatekeeper.​

    ...I think Gir should have won.
    TheGateKeeper just recolored Darkrai.
    Gir's was original.
    Also, TheGateKeeper's is pillowshaded. Bad.

    Do you mind if I rate the pokemon?

    Originality: 9/10. Not completely original because it appears to be another evolution of eevee, still original though.
    Pallet:9/10 Good pallet, you should have dithered around the head.
    Neatness: 8/10 a fwe spots are a little off...
    Skill:7/10 A Novice couldn't sprite this, but many average spriters could sprite this.
    Overall: 7.5/10

    Originality: 6/10 - Not completely original, because you used Darkrai's outline and basically made a recolor.
    Pallet: 10/10 - It's a good pallet, just need to use it correctly!
    Neatness: 8/10 - It's off in several spots, and it looks a little messy in areas.
    Skill 6/10 - It's a recolor, most spriters can do this, and you pillow shaded.
    Overall: 6.5/10 - It was a good idea, but it's pixel shaded, and pixel shaded is a bad mistake that novice pixelers tend to make.

    That's not difficult.
    Select a red color in microsoft paint, zoom in 500%, then trace around the lines.
    Also, do you know anything about spriting?
    Pillow shading is really bad and is an easy habit to get into, and that Darkrai is Pillow shaded :\

  • I'm agreeing with Pokemoon on this one Todoroki, the Darkrai is basically a recolour with flames and as Pokemoon has pointed out, it's pillow shaded and kinda flat looking.
    Now, the Eevee evo, whilst having a few errors, shows more skill firstly as it's a scratch sprite, all be it, the shading needs a little work and the tail looks too pointed but overall, scratch spriting is much harder than "flaming" as I'm going to put it (believe me, I've sprited for years).
    Now I believe the reason it looks better to you is because it's an official Darkrai sprite with a "flame" used on it and it still holds the shape of the original sprite and as we all now, most people prefer the official Nintendo sprites as opposed to scratchs.

    Now, I'm just pointing this out and mean no offense to any competition members.

    A fire is brightest in the center as in this picture
    Team New Era!


    See what I mean a fire is white in the center and the colors get darker the farther away it gets from the center.
