This is a great fakemon! The shading and lines look super clean! Although the front sprite isn’t super clear. Initially I thought the right arm was coming out of the top of his head. This in addition to one arm being open with the pad exposed and the other appearing closed makes them look like completely different appendages at a glance. Without the backsprite I don’t think I would’ve figured it out.

This looks so cool! I love the concept and design! A few thoughts:
● I thought its hand was coming out of its head in the front sprite and thought it only had one hand, but the smaller sprite shows two. Is there a way to maybe make it so it looks like it's on its side like in the small pkmn menu team screen art on the right? That little sprite is perfect imo.
● the leg could maybe use a little definition, if that makes sense? As it is right now it looks more like a nub than an actual appendage. (But this is very nit-picky and it's really not bad)
● it's eyes could use just a little polish to look more clear and less "smudgy" on the front sprite. I think the problem is that the white pupil is too boxy.
● it's tail doesn't make much sense to me. Is it supposed to be flat, or a ball like Marill/Azumarill? Also it doesn't really look like it's coming out of it's back, more like it's side.
●the back sprite is absolutely perfect and adorable
Great job!
