I get that the added white and brown makes it resemble Raichu more but I think it might be a bit much. Especially the paws, the way that guy drew them anyway (looks better on the actual sprite). Also I always saw the tail/ears as meant to be more of a gradient than just solid stripes of color, but yeah he's literally translating the sprite and it's not like they had a ton of colors to work with.
Though I think it's SHAMEFUL that this leaves out the sparks around Pikachu in the GRB sprites, literally even the one he got that design from. They're the best part and kind of a neat detail that I think is disappointing didn't stick around too long.
