The gen 2 sprite is so refreshing to see. Thank you for this gem, churdizard. If you do more gen 2 style CAP sprites, you should definitely post the in them CAP kitchen. https://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/the-cap-kitchen-non-competitive-discussion-goes-here.3471873/

Here is another (probably final) update:
-->
I worked on two poses: one that bends more forward (more pokemon style) and one that leans more backwards (more lizard style).
Not sure what pose to choose though... but probably will go for the left one as the pose is a bit more dynamic.
Also reworked the hands, sleeves, tail and colors a little bit.
Hopefully I'll find the time to do the backpose too ^^
MrDollSteak I certainly support the new pose! Looks very nice!

I like the progress you've made, although I want to point out that I can barely see the tip of the tail fin on the white background. It is much too light imho.
I personally much prefer the mouth closed, although I think either leaning forward or leaning backward looks good.
WIP
Muted the colors a bit to make it easier on the eyes and changed the lighting to be more on par with other BW-style sprites.

Krazyguy75, whoo, excited to see you give spriting a try! For a first sprite, you've nailed down a lot of spriting concepts! I like the colors you've used on your sprite, and your attention to shape look great, especially on the antennae, arms, and tail tuft.
My feedback for you: The legs are on really different planes, so it looks like it's in a jumping pose rather than an idle pose. I also think the pose in your sprite is a bit stiff. The trunk of the torso is really vertical, while the tail comes out from the back horizontally. Would you be able to show a more gentle slope from the torso to the tail?
--
noobiess, the color of the head and arms on your sprite are a light blue, but on the main design drawing, they're an off-white, peachy color. I think the parts of your sprite that are actually meant to be light blue look a bit gray and could use some saturation. :) I prefer the pose on the left, too. It has a better line of motion.

Everyone else I gave feedback on Discord. ^^
Edit: Churdizard: that's a fun sprite, but this sort of sprite belongs in the CAP Fanart thread. :)

Slapperfish, I love where the design is going! The progress has been amazing.. but i have a small nitpick.. I think the arms are a bit skinny. Maybe fatten them a bit.. or move them a little upwards so it's more a bit more balanced?WIP

You have 48 hours to put the finishing touches on your sprites! But let me know if you need any more time.

Man, what a journey it's been on my first true spriting venture! Rather than basing the sprite's pose on the official art, I instead decided to base it on Quanyails' idle stance sketch that was initially included as supporting art.
Big, BIG thanks to everyone on Discord who gave their feedback on the design. May the best sprite win!

Might do so some minor tweaks if I find the time but I like how it turned out generally.
MrDollSteak Love the final result! Nice job!
Slapperfish I'm impressed on how much progress you have made in such short time! Hope to see some other spritework from you in the future!
edit: Did some minor color adjustments based on the comments of Quanyails.

Not gonna submit. Too busy to make a back sprite and fix the front one, plus I’m fairly happy with the ones others have submitted so far.

I've been thinking the design as floaty--although I'm in the minority here. :P
Color count: 18 + transparency

Comments:
noobiess, it seems like the outlines on the white part of the head haven't been updated to match the recolor? The outlines are still blue. I also don't think this is your intent, but the colors around the mouth make it look like face paint. :S The colors are still rather dull, too.

I went with the majority and gave my sprite an idle position. I still tried to keep the dainty look of the original by facing it sideways. Although I first wanted to make it floaty too, I’m really happy with how the sprite turned out.
Here is how it relates to other gen 5 sprites:
