This is a tutorial I made for Sparx the Knight , But anyone who wants to use it can

Most Pokémon sprites use 3 or 4 shades, the lightest for sheen and the darkest for the outline. I usually start with the middle shade so when I go lighter I can just shortcut back to the middle color using the custom color feature (click on the original color on the pallet in the new window) and then make it darker from there.

I ussally freehand drag the pixel across to outline the shade, this might also take practice, or you may want to just pixle it.
small details like the circle over the legs do not need sheen.

For the thorax, use the darkest shade of brown for the design out line then lighten the color for the fill in, and even more for the lighting. The green part of the thorax also gets no sheen cause it's behind something (the wings)

Now do the eye, fill in with basic yellow and use a darker shade to go over the
corners of the pupil and to shade.

draw the outline of the fire fill in and viola!
