Well, I have never publicly unveiled a scratch sprite so I wanted feeback for them, before they go on my youtube channel
Any corrections?

ok i will if i see him on
*Moved*
thank you =)
That's not bad...
(i'm beginning to think that i should try my hand at spriting people and creatures)
How many do you have or plan to show?
currently i cant see anything that might be wrong with it so yeah this looks great so far.
I also like how you've got the color palette with the pokemon it definitely helps when you wish to recolor something.

They're good concepts but your technique still needs work.
Can't really make any specific suggestions though since I've never sprited.
As far as 'Crowspark' goes, I think it looks as though it is sort of tipped sideways a bit. The angle on the [beak?] is a bit off and the eye is too high imo.

Yeah it's a beak. I don't have the time to level him out so i have the palettes in this pic (not the flame palette for obvious reasons). Feel free to edit him yourself.

For some reason it actually looks better there

Another thing to work on is to reduce the amount of shaded area. If you imagine where the light from an unobstructed sun would hit, it would illuminate a lot of the throat, much more of the head, the paws, and more of the back.
The light should also be coming from the top right, not the top left.
EDIT: IB tells me I'm stupid. Flip those directions. But it's not as bad as I first thought, but there should be more light on the front-ish of the sprite. The light looks like its directly overhead.
Unless I'm mistaken, we've always had the light coming from the top left.
so far so good (me i'm not so worried bout the lighting unless of course you plan on having it be consistent with all other pokemon official or fanmade...) personally i think it's great...
i pretty much suck at it so i wouldnt be able to edit too well..

I would suggest making the lines for the abs more curved.
EDIT: And you should shade the Pokemon that you edited into your post.
Look up tutorials on shading. I typed "sprite shading tutorial" into Google and this looks like a good one.
