to be honest if not blunt, in my opinion, things could've went a lot more........*is debating between "darker" or "better"* anyway, either or it doesn't really matter at this point, what does matter is that it's a great piece of artwork which came from a great artist. as for WHY things could've gone darker/better, well i can't really explain that even with the best of my ability because i don't really know HOW to explain that. maybe perhaps that there could be darker and more gritty aspects of pokemon that could be tapped into as inspiration, maybe you could've focused more on just one pokemon instead of exploiting three, seeing as that the trainer is in a sense being embraced by his pokemon. honestly i don't really know how or what else to explain seeing as that its 4:15 in the freaking morning and i'm so asleep to a point where i'm awake, but if you have any questions at all feel free to respond to this.
