it seems pretty good and u have to basic idea how to make it, just erase the extra parts of the pokemon that go outside the box so it'll look something like this:

if u can just erase those extra parts, then it'll be a lot better, but not bad for a first try ;)

Also, you should edit the trainer sprite to make it more unique. The one in my sig is a horrible example, but that's what I mean.

Also, the standard trainer card has your favorite Pokemon standing next to the trainer. It is best if you create a custom sprite for that pokemon as well, just so it isn't boring.

But other than those two things, it seems fine. The pokemon sticking out of boxes isn't that bad, but consider changing it.

Select an area of 48x32 so it fits in the box. Also, yuo don't have to put in the ID no, the name is enough.

Sometimes having one part of the pokemon stick out of the box like the head or a hand/paw can add dynamics but what you've done just strikes me as lazy. You need to cut the part off otherwie it looks like a lackluster effort. TCs are incredibly easy anyway try something else.

Trainer Cards are easy to make. The only mistake you made was letting the pokémon out of the boxes. And the fact that you did it in 10 minutes isn't an excuse.
