That's a shame. I can't see the sprite through the JPEG artifacts. Just a reminder: always save sprites as PNGs. It will save you a lot of grief in the future.
Pixel overs are not scratches. To be honest, the best description of this sprite is "sloppy"; it looks so dirty that I didn't realize that it wasn't a JPEG until I actually checked. It looks nothing like the D/P Pokémon sprites at best (No, you may not use only 12 colors; 14-15 out of the 16 colors are typically used in D/P sprites), and needs either a severe clean-up or to be completely redone. Apologies for sounding harsh, but practice is simply a necessity for good scratches.
As long as CAP 5 sprites are being posted, I may as well post mine.

any amount of colors are usable. umbreon, for example, and many other pokemon have much less coloring. it is and always was PNG.
it is not a sprite over. i took his picture, sized it down, outlined the edges to make a black display, colored it in and then scratched the rocks.
i have a much newer version of the sprite which you can check on the thread, also, please, give some reasonable criticism..
as for your sprite. it's way too small, and other than that, it's just plain compared to some of the other stuff that people have come up with. wyverrii, for example.
 
any amount of colors are usable if I'm not open to the suggestions of those with experience. umbreon, for example (who has a 13 color palette), and many other pokemon (who also have 13 color palettes) have much less coloring, because 1 color is a lot. it is and always was PNG, even though you never referred to mine as being a PNG. In fact, you explicitly said that Chileon's was the one not saved as a PNG, and that mine was just low quality.
it is not a sprite over. i took his picture, sized it down, outlined the edges to make a black display, colored it in and then scratched the rocks, which means that only most of it is a pixel over.
i have a much newer version of the sprite which you can check on the thread, also, please, give some reasonable criticism such as things that I don't really have to work hard to fix..
as for your sprite. it's way too small even though if I had taken the time to read why, I wouldn't be embarrasing myself, and other than that, it's just plain compared to some of the other stuff that people have come up with. wyverrii, for example uses a style that is undeniably skillful, but is too complex for a D/P sprite.
I fixed it.
 
hauntomb is wat to copyflipped =/
armoreon looks pretty nice but it needs way more steel aspects. just adding skarmory parts doesnt make it a steel type.
 
meeh you're right im gonna make it better with some extra steel parts got it. Thnx for responding i appreciate it alot :)

EDIT: Here is the new Armoreon with some steel parts added:
Armoreon2.png


I used: Skarmory parts, Magneton/Magnezone parts.

EDIT 2: You were right it looks ugly now this is the Final Armoreon:

I used: Steelix's Colors, Skarmory's Tail ans his head thing. I stole Dialga's Orb and i used Dialga's blue colors for the tail.

The CaP 5 is small >.<
 
Possessing huge boulders doesn't sound defensively fragile to me. It may have base 90 HP, but we're talking about a base 65 defense here, hence defensively fragile. Your sprite is one of the larger ones and you have obviously gone with the large interpretation, but it just doesn't make a lot of sense to me personally.
 
Meeh no respond on my new Armoreon yet ;o;

Anyway i made a new 1 and im pretty proud of it i'd like you guys to rate it and maybe i'm gonna put it in my avatar so please tell me your opinion and changes i can make:

I haven't change much it was only supposed to be a recolor but i just couldn't leave cacnea with arms there so i stole it lol.

Actually, without the claws, my sprites not much bigger than porygon-z :S
