the bear thing looks nice but the animation isnt really working for fire. Also it seems like the fire is just coming out of his side rather than engulfing him, which makes it look like you pixeled the bear thing, liked it, and then didnt want to cover it up with the fire. I could understand that, cause the bear thing is pretty nice, but one thing you could do is have it not start on fire, then a second later a match gets flung into the picture and lands on him, then he starts burning and soon he is totally engulfed in flames until, as skamocore suggested, hes a pile of ashes. Now that would be really cool.
I prefer the Slowpoke version

Also that's some stiff animation, especially for fire. And the shading doesn't go with it either. Got a lot to work on here.
Ah, go on keep working on the animation. It would be cool to see him burn to a pile of ashes, then another bidoof falls from the sky and catches alight. Repeat.
I'm dying squirtle ;_;
Literal *lol*, haha
