Is it the pose? I'll get to work on it then.
Final Submission
I may be away for a few days so my best bet would be to finish this up now and submit it. I didn't dull the colours as requested for good reason though I have touched up both the front and back. I removed the main mouth altogether from the female since that appears to be the popular choice. Good luck guys.

Definitely got my vote! Lighter coloring is what stands out best to me on these sprites so I see no reason to change it.
I lurv this! Wyverii has my vote!

Beautiful AND a good choice on the gender differences for those who like the mask without a mouth. I'm leaning into this one for my vote, but I'm not completely sure yet. Regardless, the design is amazing.
Atyroki, I prefer the first pose, as well as the white shiny.

These sprites are so incredibly good, I just can't believe it! I find myself staring at them, with my jaw dropped. They are so rich in artistry and technique!
I think there are many good sprites in this thread. Atyroki has made two fantastic sprites. KOA's recent entry is a fine addition to his resume of spriting mastery. Cartoons, the incumbent spriting champ, came out with a wonderfully exciting pose. But, as good as those sprites are -- Wyverii took this thing to whole different level.
I didn't realize it when the design was chosen, but this is right in the sweet spot of what Wyverii does best. If you look at her art thread, you'll see this kind of design is almost custom made for her spriting style. Wyverii is such a talented artist that she can sprite just about anything and it will probably be a top 3 finisher, at worst. But, to give her a four-legged furry animal design? OMG, it was a masterpiece waiting to happen. And it happened.
As a spriter, I'm in awe of the skill on display in these sprites. As a fan of details, I'm fascinated with all the little nuances that Wyverii managed to work into these sprites without making them appear "crowded". As a proponent of "cool shinies", I'm giddy just looking at the epic gold shinies Wyverii created.
I honestly can say nothing bad about these sprites. They are absolutely perfect!
Tried a new pose, still haven't had the time to do a back sprite, but I got rid of the female variations and the aura thingy. any suggestions?
erm... I think... I only made the picuture 200x200 so I would have working space.
damn.... it's 89x80 px
The top head-spike is too large anyway, just shrink that.
These win. Period. :)

Unless Cartoons, Aragornbird or Diamond Dust do something completely epic, this got my vote.

Yes, it looks like Wyv is still a front-runner. All is well in the world again!
After we both suffered a humiliating defeat in the last sprite polls, I am working my hardest to make sure we have another epic showdown a la CaP 3.
Everyone loves Rival vs. Rival matches, hahaha.
Time for an epic backsprite which admittedly are not my strongsuit.

this is really good, but I cant say that I really love that shiny color or the lightness of the blue. I personally liked the silver one more and darker colors. too late to change these now though as it is your final. :(

seconded.
And even though there are some consistency issues with other pokemon sprites, TVBC's is amazingly spooky, charming, unpretentious, and good!
I also have to give a thumbs up to Atyroki for trying new and interesting poses (even if it is debatable which is actually better).
I'm not sure I like the sheer scale of the male/female differentiation going on -- usually the changes are less blatant (?) still I like having an option to take the smile off -- it's all good I guess.
Hrm... this one is.. Perfect! Well, almost. My only gripe is that the front 2 legs (Frontal view) seem hard to differentiate. Otherwise, man this kinda gives me a creepy vibe with how is head is turned. It feels like it is staring at me and not to mention his pose makes it seem like he is... actually scouting (me); almost as if he was about to take off at a moments notice.
This has my vote for sure.
