Um.. okay. They are not the best, but nice try :) I don't think the team wants different coloured pokemon I think 'cause they're really easy to make and are trying to keep it original.. e.o
we have the same name o.o

Good to see that you want to help, im sure someone from development will see it soon and see if there is anything you can do.

How can I put this...
If you want to help you have to be able to make sprites from scratch. Almost anybody can recolor or splice pre-made sprites. Pokemon Universe does not need recolored Pokemon as badly as it needs the actual Pokemon sprites.
If you really want to help, you can try pixel art, which is making sprites from scratch. Be warned though, this is very hard and time consuming. Most people stop trying before they even begin.

Sorry, don't think you can be of any help with that. We're looking for pixel artists who can create custom tiles ex. Nature and houses.

If you can draw well, making proper anatomy you can try drawing something between the 94x94 pixelsize and then trace it with a black pixeloutline. However since you aren't good yet I suggest you train some more with recolouring sice even that isn't going pretty well.
For example your Arceus, you call it gold, but all I see is a dull yellow colour on the lightest shade of the arceus' main body. You're supposed to do the entire body. So all the darker coloured grey spots should've been yellow too (but then a bit darker yellow) and even after that is doesn't look pretty gold-ish because gold should look a bit shiny.
Your snorlax is a little bit better... But... You removed all the shading from his body by making everything the same yellow. And the worst part is: You resized the sprite, NEVER resize a sprite, if you want to work more exact you can always zoom in by holding the alt button and use your mouse scroller to zoom in or out. Same suggestion as at arceus: use darker yellow for the darker shades on the body. If you don't pay attention to shading you end up with a pokémon that looks flat.
Theres still a lot you need to learn, but if you have the patience you will become better at pixelart. If you practise alot you'll improve and become better. Stay with recolouring for now until you are statisfied with the sprites you make.
Mixing sprites is the next step into learning pixelart by learning about anatomy of sprites and how to put these up.
