wow, i love the lines! they really make your art pop out, the facial expressions are amazing too! try adding backgrounds?
 
Any advice I would offer would depend entirely on your goals, if you could detail any goals you have with art it might help?

my goals are to be able to draw pokemon in any position and make it look believable - mainly i want to know how to improve shading to add depth to the colouring for a start :lemon:
 
What art program are you using? Some times different art programs can effect ya work.

Oh, this is some thing that I do, try to stay away from using black outlines as sometimes it can overpower ya piece. Use a different shade that is darker then the inside colour, example is with your purple behind Togepi you can use a duller shade of purple for the outline.

I don't have much art tips ^^' so hopefully someone that is more experienced in digital art will be able to give you some more tips~
