I'm indecisive. Yay. Help me please.

Hello diligent artist and persons crafty of mind,

 

Remember when I did the old sprite for my MC/OC Akihito? You know, this one?

Spoiler

Yeah, well, I may or may not scrap this. In truth, I want to keep him, but at the same time, I feel as if this isn't dark enough. Would you crafty-minded people help me decide on which character to make into the dark character?

Here is the other one for reference sake...

Spoiler

Thank you all in advance and I hope I can come to a conclusion soon, so that I can input a vs sprite and work on the first gym leader. Thank you!
