I don't know how to upload images here so I hope there won't be a problem if I upload my DeviantArt here (https://www.deviantart.com/paperfire88).
I guess it's not truly abandoned as long as people like you and me keep randomly stumbling on here. I had a look and some of your stuff's great, that remake of your earliest Gengar really shows how good you've got after all that practice. I like the idea of the multiple colour palettes per sprite.
I wanted to tackle all the Johto pokemon that got later evolutions so here are:
Honchkrow - Guardians Rising
Weavile - Secret Wonders
Magnezone - Diamond & Pearl
Weavile I'm particularly pleased with as I've tried to do it at least 4 times, and the earlier attempts all looked terrible. I'm finally happy with how it turned out.
Wanted to put my practice to the test so for Electivire and Magmortar I made this combo card based on their Brilliant Stars team-up attack. Having to share colours between two cards to tie them together made the limited colour palette even trickier but I've always been a sucker for how cool the cards that go together to make a bigger picture look.
And about the different palettes, it was something else to fill in because it would feel quite strange to simply upload the sprite like that.
-----------------
I don't know what specific cards they are but I like how you used the colors in the Magnezone, in the Electivire and Magmortar Sprite there are 2 extra colors
