The VG Resource

With the announcement of Heart Gold and Soul Silver I figured I'd try to revamp the old sprites with newer colors.

It's a recolour.

It doesn't actually fit any existing Pokémon style, and is too basic to be considered a new one. So no thank you; moved to Sprite Discussion.

Is there any way for me to fix it so it can be submitted?

Instead of just recoloring it, take the design, but do it in a different style. One of the GBA styles, for example.

You'll need to approach it from a different angle.

'Revamping' isn't just throwing more colours on a GBC sprite, it actually has to fit the size and colouring rules of what you're revamping to. Have a look at the sprites for the GBA Pokémon games, and actually create a new sprite (or heavily edit this one) so it matches the size, colouring rules, and shading rules of your target.

Essentially, you're gonna have to start over and try something a bit harder if you want this submitted.

Edit: And there's the slight problem that this has been done already.

Too bad. But you could still try to do it in DPPt style, or do Silver/Crystal.

when one says "revamp", you usually think of improving the actual sprite into something more "advanced" or updated. as it is now, is just a plain recolor that, technically may seems updated, but its still the same sprite with just added colors. and that its quite plain and boring to see. remaking the whole sprite would always be a way more challenging and interesting choice.

Yeah, I guess I can try that.
