DA's backlog of sprites
Well.. I may not have been around exactly (I'm sorry, I have no great excuse), but that doesn't mean I didn't at least do a few sprites in that time;
Started with doing some devamps and gsc style sprites, had a few more in the works but didn't finish them, nor any backsprites.
Then I did a sprite based off the old Dark Arbok tcg design, though went overboard and shaded it in a more detailed way than normal pokemon sprites.
This.. this came up briefly during a discussion on shintendo, about if SL had a coat of arms- it was just wistful thinking, but I just had to go ahead and make it for him.
And lastly, Karasu knows what these are.

They all look awesome and I don't see anything wrong with them. I'm not a spruter so that only means that mostly small details could be wrong.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
Either way, I appreciate the comment.
I tend to criticize my work, never quite good enough for me.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
I know that feeling... that's why I rarely look over any of my own writings after publishing too. Never seems good enough. I'll try my best at a critique, though.
I have mostly good things to say about these. The top group largely looks like what could be actual game sprites from that console, at least to me. My only complaint is the color schemes chosen for the Weaviles... idk why, but those color combinations are just really off to me, like poor shinies, but I can see where the second and third designs of those are coming from... the Trapinch line seems great though! As does Arbok! All of those seem to come off very natural and all are rather professional.
The crest is actually pretty interesting... I've been looking at crests too, to look into my family history. The one you made makes a nice, proud front and I can see the representation behind the Pokémon chosen to be in the design. The only thing I'm not sure about is the symbol on the front of the shield, but that's just because I don't recognize it. Is it a halved wing, like mirroring Lugia and Ho-oh? The Potterhead part of me is thinking of the Goblet of Fire in the design... but I know that can't be the case. XD
Lastly... is that the Caterpie line as a fire type? So cool! Since you mentioned a name, I can tell this was commissioned or something, so I can't really judge it for its intended look here.
I can definitely see you're talented overall!

Yes, the shiny Weavile suffers slightly compared to the non shiny, because when it comes to the actual games, no pixels can be changed between the normal and shiny, only the palette- thus the black that worked fine for the normal one really stands out on the pink.
And as for the design on the shield, it's a stylized Silver Wing- the item needed to encounter Lugia in GSC. None of the traditional heraldry designs really seemed to fit.
I do like Harry Potter though.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
I actually wasn't comparing the shiny to non-shiny sprites, I was kind of comparing the color scheme that seemed so glaring to me to encountering, say, a not-so-favorable shiny. In retrospect that's a pretty bad thing to say, but everything in the design itself was very good! I realize what was being done here and the limitations that were being worked with. To be commended!
Ahh, the silver wing. Sometimes my fandoms clash, what can I say?

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
Oh, yeah, I see what you're saying- I sampled the shiny colors directly off of Sneasel's GSC shiny as Sneasel and Weavile use primarily the same shiny colors, up until gen 6 (at which point they made Weavile's slightly darker). So yeah.. how great they really are is debatable.
I personally was a fan of the brighter pink though.

Great work as always, though for the love of me I have no idea what is going on with that Charmetapod.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
its charpod
Charpod is gonna go fast looks like a speed demon going to clash into freedom going so fast can see him for miles and if you like bass he'll throw in some trout
(idk whats with me and rhymes right now)
Edit: not all of that rhymed modified version coming ASAP!
Charpod going so fast he may flop up and down like a bass saying flame on thinking he's got freedom but back in his ball where we all can't see him!!!!!!!

I don't think Charpod is going anywhere. It doesn't even have feet.

Crawling isn't a fast way of transportation.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
How the charpie evolution line was made: I was talking to Da about fusions in our random discussions on skype (I would normally say hi to Da and then a topic would star change and mold into new ones) we got on the topic about pokemon fusions when I started talking about a fanmade pokemon game called Pokemon Infinite fusion (do not play it the fusions are all from that weird fusion website) I then started talking about my starter which I fused with a caterpie hence Charpie, charpod and charfree. a few days later I started another conversation with Da and she said she was working on something. a few minutes later a beautifull creation was made and charfree was Born.

Re: DA's backlog of sprites
The funny thing is, whatever type combination it gets, it will always be 4x weak to rock. All the 3 types Charizard and Butterfree have are weak to rock.
