About the heights, my style will make them look lankier already (because I hate Sugimori's squat anatomy-ridden style), and Sneasel is supposed to be around 2'11" and Flaaffy is 2'7", so the Flaaffy here is actually a bit too tall...! But these two are also adults, and the Gothorita is supposed to look like a child or teenager (they're supposed to be 2'4"), and the Treecko here is the shortest at 1'8"
The anime actually fucks up a lot of the sizes, so I don't like to use it as a reference. Did you know that Noctowl is actually like 5'4"???? That's taller than me! They also usually depict Steelix as being smaller than he should be; he's supposed to be 30' long, but when he stands upright on his tail (which doesn't make any sense at all bee tee dubs) he's only about 15', which is about 3 people stacked on top of each other, when he should be around 6.
A better reference for sizes is the 3D games; they actually correspond the character models to the height in the Pokedex and compare them to a height chart, so everything is exact. That's why Wailord appears so large compared to like Castform ahaha. I'm not sure if it's Colosseum or Gale of Darkness that has the little menu option to look at the Pokemon character models, but that's what I used to use a few years ago ahaha.
But thank you for the critique! I really appreciate it <33 Size references are one thing that I like to try and get down to a T :'D I get on to one of my friends all the time about it..!

That's okay too! Art is hard and it takes a lot of practice to really build up experience. People like to say "oh you're just talented, it's natural for you" when really a lot of the time it isn't..! If you look at the work of really great artists from when they first started art, they usually look very childish or cartoony aha :'D and of course, lacking anatomy. Art is a patience thing, you can't just expect to get good overnight..! This is a thing with people who come to me like "AUGH YOU'RE GREAT TEACH ME YOUR WAYS" because like even if I do it's not really going to make them improve a whole lot; it'll just enlighten them to what they need to practice more of..! I like to think of art as three P's: Practice, Persistence, and Patience. So what if you're not good at art right now.! If you keep at it and build up that skill, and you really have a passion for it, you'll become really good in no time ;> (by no time I mean a couple years lol shot)

The application is done, but i ran across a complication. Firstly the way I documented it (Microsoft Office word) is a Docx File, and won't lad with DA for some reason. The only other program I have (notepad) doesn't do bold lettering... DA insert text thing also suffers that problem.

I usually just copy and paste out of the word doc ahaha
and if you do < b > and < /b > without the spaces, it bolds the text for you
