Evil Pokemon Trainer Schu, at your service, Mirre. Beat me and you get my Star Medallion.

Always loved Game Freak's style.

Pretty nice, I'm just not a fan of the selective black outlines, but that is a style of their sprites, so good one.

Haha, I love the design. You can look forward to a tought fight about that star medallion ;)

I noticed some things that makes it stick out from the Pokémon trainer style though. The feet are much bigger than most of the sprites. Generally the female trainer sprites have pretty small feet. The end of the pants are also huge, I can't spot a trainer with pants folded as yours at the bottom, but this might be a good reference anyways: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dptr/dptr130.png (http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dptr/dptr130.png) Another thing I noticed is the arm behind the back. You have one very straight line there (something I'd avoid with such a small sprite generally). Here's a similar pose for the arm you can use as reference: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dptr/dptr148.png (http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dptr/dptr148.png)

I'm not familiar with the pokemon trainer style, but I have to say, I love this sprite. Proportions, weight, pose, facial expression... all ace. The crazy flaring and folding at the pant cuffs is awesome.
