If you want mindless complements, skip this. But if you want to get better, then prepare to have you sprite ripped apart.
The lighting is odd. Very rarely does something light up to down like that.
You should put the highlights at parts that stick out, such as it's stomach and face, instead of "Top to bottom".
I only modified your colors a little because I liked the color choice, but it could use some darker colors.
I modified the intensity and added more highlights.

Could be a bit lighter, but oh well. It's a 5 minute edit.
Edit:
I forgot, I suggest working on a gray background so your colors aren't yoo light in comparative had you made a sprite used in a game, like they were here.

I expect to see a revised #494 ._. And possibly the 495 and 496.

Yeah, if it's a starter, it should have two more evolutions.

Here it is, based on your advice and provided color scheme.

Well it's not the best... but since i have two major events this weekend we'll probably not see anything new from me till next week.

Nice. You should make more. Maybe a water and fire one.

I wanted to keep the whole "Grass Reptile Theme" (Bulba and Chiko are based off of dinos, Treecko is a lizard/gecko, and Turtwig is a tortoise.) Plus gators are pretty cool.

here are the fire and water starter, tell me what should be improved.

And Squirtle and Turtwig are both turtles too. Plus, Totodile is a Croc and Grator is a Gator.

any criticism at all?

The fire one looks a bit like Gastly.

Never, ever dither on fire.
Here's a quick (Not so good) Example of what you could do. Uses same colors.
