I would argue pretty heavily against this. No offense, but this sprite still needs a lot of work. The mask is completely non-original and not only does the surrounding gas look like Gastly, but it is on a completely different dimension than the mask. While the mask is facing downwards and to the side, the wisps are facing directly outwards. Look at Gastly's sprite:



The wisps travel off to a specific side, which is much more aesthetically pleasing than the direct approach you have now. Furthermore, the smoke is very blocky and doesn't disappear into the background. Kitsunoh's pre-evo could potentially have a Gastly-esque design, sure. But please try to make some of those corrections.
